Misha Collins is on his way back to Supernatural. But that's only part of the story.

On the March 23 episode of this CW drama ("The Born-Again Identity"), visions of Lucifer will cause Sam to check in to a mental hospital and Dean to call around asking fellow hunters for help. One will direct him to a healer... with a very familiar face, as you can see in these images:

“It has always been our intention to bring back Misha in some form,” executive producer Sera Gamble said in December. “We certainly can’t say too much about where the story is going to go, but we love Misha and want to continue to work with him.”

Consider us intrigued.

Supernatural returns this Friday with a new episode. Check out photos from "Out with the Old" now!
