i’ve seen a lot of people grumbling about sam mentioning vampires and rugarus in the context of his childhood, in 11x19, but i didn’t think it was a super egregious error? he was just listing generic monsters (‘vamp, rugaru, take your pick’) and it doesn’t seem that odd to me that he might just say whichever came to mind first without stopping to think about the actual specific scenarios he was describing and whether they’d actually encountered those monsters at that point or later during their (pretttttty long, and punctuated with a spell in the cage that was several times as long as the rest of it) hunting career. y'know? adult sam knows what a vampire is and what a rugaru is and he’s the one telling the story and that’s a detail that isn’t very important to its substance. idk.
