*In ''Supernatural The Official Companion Season 7'', Shōjōs are described as spirits that have a special fondness for alcohol, but not every heavy drinker becomes one when they die. One rumor persist that people who drown in vats of alcohol become shōjōs, same goes for people who die of alcohol poisoning. It's possible it has more to do with how much alcohol has leached into a person's bones at the time of their death. "We took the majority of what the myth is and then peppered it with enough stuff to make it ''Supernatural''-friendly." Co-executive producer [[Adam Glass]] explains. "So most everything you see in ''[[Party On, Garth]]'' is from the real lore. I think the only thing that we added was that you can control the spirit and sic it on somebody." However, the myths do diverge as some of the lore describes shojos as friendly spirits. "From what I've read, Shōjōs are not evil." states producer [[Todd Aronauer]]. "They're supposed to be a happier, more fun-loving creature that people purposely try to get drunk enough to see."
