Saying goodbye to the longest-running American live-action fantasy TV series, Supernatural, doesn’t mean saying goodbye forever. One of the greatest parts of being in the Supernatural Family is that family doesn’t end with blood, and fans are part of a life-long journey that stems from watching this show.

After 15 incredible seasons, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment marks the end of an era with the release of Supernatural: The Fifteenth and Final Season and Supernatural: The Complete Series. Both sets will be available on Blu-ray and DVD on May 25.

In addition to lasting memories and friendships, this fandom has been inspired by the show in many ways. With their creativity, dedication and strong support system, they have been able to share their art with Supernatural Family members around the world. They have also been incredibly supportive of the projects that the cast and crew have become involved in over the years.

In honor of the Blu-ray and DVD release, here are 15 ways to support the Supernatural Family:

Stands' Always Keep Fighting Blanket
Stands: Stands was founded in 2015 by a handful of like-minded individuals who believed that by harnessing the voices of actors and the power of fandom, they could change the world. They are an online merchandising portal with a charitable twist, teaming up with Supernatural actors such as Jared Padalecki, Kim Rhodes, Rob Benedict, Shoshannah Stern and Sam Smith. Sales of these items supports charities close to their hearts, including the American Stroke Association and Equal Hope.

Con*Quest Journals: After years of vending at fan and comic conventions and gathering photo-ops, autographs, ticket stubs and all of the bits left in the bottom of backpacks, the Con*Quest Journals™ team came up with the idea for a journal designed especially for fan conventions. Their Supernatural collection includes: planners, journals, notepads, decals and more.

GISH: The Greatest International Scavenger Hunt is a Guinness Record-setting experience designed to bring out the weird, creative and adventurous sides of people while doing some good. Their scavenger hunts, spearheaded by Misha Collins, are the most popular in the world and played by tens of thousands of people in over 100 countries.

Not Topic's flannel shirts
Not Topic: This fashion and collectibles brand can be found at a variety of comic conventions throughout the United States, selling apparel and replica items. They also create merchandise that supports several charities related to the Supernatural fandom, including Jared Padalecki’s Always Keep Fighting. 

Family Business Beer Co.: Proudly brewed in Dripping Springs, Texas, this brewery is co-owned by Jensen and Danneel Ackles and gets its name from a quote in season one, episode two - “You know, saving people, hunting things. The family business.”

Wayward Stitches: Your menagerie for eclectic, nerdy and fandom goods, Wayward Stitches carries hand-crafted designs inspired by the show. Their current product, a Perdition Overshirt, is an ode to the show’s introduction to Castiel and other moments along the way. It was selected based on Dean's Season 15 overshirt and embroidered in-house with Castiel's handprint.

Samuel’s Sweet Shop: The boutique candy shop in Rhinebeck, New York almost shut its doors for good when three local families stepped forward to save it - including actors Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Hilarie Burton. The shop offers candy, chocolates, baked goods and beverages.

Witchy Wicks Sam, Dean and Castiel Combo Pack

Cards Against Supernatural: This limited edition series has 500 cards just as brilliant as the original. Unlike most party games you've played, Cards Against Supernatural™ is as despicable and as awkward as you and your friends.
