Bobby's Panic Room
Sam: You built a panic room??
Bobby: I had a weekend off.
Dean: Bobby, you're awesome.
– Bobby and the Winchesters, 4.02 Are You There, God? It's Me, Dean Winchester
This panic room was built and designed by Bobby Singer during a weekend off from hunting4.02 Are You There, God? It's Me, Dean Winchester The room is designed to offer safe haven from ghosts and demons. However Sam has been its most frequent, and reluctant, occupant.
It is a cylindrical room, completely lined in Iron coated in Salt to keep spirits from entering. In the roof is a large extraction fan, below which has a grill with metal work in the shape of a Devil's Trap.
The room has a bed, and appears well-stocked with supplies and equipment. There is an iconic poster of Bo Derek from the movie "10" on the wall.
On the big metal door to Bobby's panic room, we stamped in the name of Eric (Kripke's) grandfather's steel company...It's a nice thing for Eric.
