FANDOM: Supernatural
FIC LINK: The Raven on AO3 or The Raven on livejournal

RATING/WARNING(S): PG-13, minor language, horror elements and violence, nothing worse than what’s on the show. Spoilers through to episode 8.10, Torn and Frayed

MAIN CHARACTERS: Sam Winchester, Dean Winchester

FIC SUMMARY:
The Raven is a hotel opposite a haunted house a few miles outside Baltimore. Sam and Dean are there on a boringly routine job. Then Sam finds a package of nineteenth-century letters under a floorboard, a mysterious ghost with sad eyes insists that Dean is going to kill his brother, and the world’s creepiest doctor shows up claiming he can cure Sam, who’s suddenly starting to spike high fevers for no reason Dean can figure out.

RECCER'S NOTES:
The Supernatural fandom can do case!fic like no one's business, this is just one example of how awesome it can be. The setting is creepy, the boys are snarky and there's a dash of h/c that feels very true to the show. There are some small moments of outsider POV peppered in that are fantastic as well.
