1.13 Route 666
When Harold Todd, now Mayor of Cape Girardeau, Missouri purchased the old Dorian home and bulldozed it, it inadvertently awakened Dorian's spirit and caused it to become restless and seek revenge on the people that were involved in his murder. The following day, Clayton was killed, and within three weeks, Cassie's father is also killed by the "phantom truck."
After Sam and Dean arrive, Jimmy, now the newspaper editor and Cassie's boss, is run off the road to his death by the Dorian's truck. Mayor Todd is run down and killed, and Cassie and her mother are threatened. The boys drag the truck from the swamp and salt and burn Cyrus' body, but to no avail. As the truck pursues Dean in the Impala, Sam directs Dean to lure it over the consecrated ground where the church was, and Cyrus is finally laid to rest.
