History
Chronos can travel through time by taking energy from three humans. He has wandered in time since losing his preeminence in the world. In 1944, he meets Lila Taylor in Canton, Ohio. He intended her to be his third victim, but instead fell in love with her. When he accidentally leaves her time, he kills to get the power to return to her. His killings attract the notice of Sheriff Jody Mills in the modern era, who puts Sam and Dean on the case. They find him in the same house he has occupied in various decades, and track him to an alley where he kills another victim. Dean charges him, and is pulled back in time with him to 1944. Chronos evades Dean, but his killings in this year have attracted the notice of hunter Eliot Ness, who teams up with Dean. They spot Chronos meeting with Lila, and Ness watches him at her house.
Chronos catches Ness and attacks him, but the hunter manages to get away. Dean, having been given a stake carved by vestal virgins to kill Chronos, heads to the house to meet up with Ness. Together they expose Chronos's actions to Lila. The god attacks Dean, choking him.
In the present, Sam and Jody have found a spell to summon Chronos to their time and location. When the now elderly Lila reveals that she witnessed Chronos throttling Dean in 1944, and that the clocks stopped at 11:34 that night, Sam and Jody are able to summon Chronos while he is attacking Dean, bringing both of them to the present. The spell Sam recites to summon Chronos is
- O Krone, parakaloumen se, thespizein hemin hronon ton mellonta.
- O Kronos, we beg you, foretell the future for us
Sam stabs Chronos with the stake that came with them. Chronos, dying, tells Sam that his future is full of black ooze, covering everything.

Chronos in Lore
The name Chronos is given to a Greek philosophical personification of time.[1] Another figure in Greek thought, Cronus, or Kronos, is a titan, and the father of Zeus and Poseidon.[2] Ancient Rome, the culture of origin for the vestal virgins, adopted Cronus as Saturn. Over time the figures of Chronos and Cronus became closely intertwined.
