Lilith breaks a man's neck with a gesture;[2] Brady moves Mary Winchester up the wall and onto the ceiling of Sam's nursery before cutting open her abdomen with his mind;[3] Ruby, to keep Dean from interfering with Lilith's death, closes the doors to the chapel of St Mary's Convent by outstretching her hand;[4] Crowley pins Sam and Dean to a wall when they attack his monster prison.[5]
  • Ghosts can cause people and objects to move, through both telekinesis[3] and ghost possession.[6]
