Any fan of The CW’s hit show Supernatural knows that preparation is key when hunting the bad guys. In order to kick some teeth in and enjoy some pie afterword, it’s always a good idea to start reading and brush up on some lore. A lot of this was usually done with John Winchester’s journal, but since the discovery of the bunker, they’ve had the tools of The Men of Letters at their disposal. Now, thanks to Insight Editions teaming up with Warner Bros., fans will get a chance to do their own research at home with Supernatural: The Men of Letters Bestiary.

The Men of Letters were a secret society dedicated to accumulating knowledge of the supernatural and arcane mysteries. Years after the order was wiped out, Sam and Dean Winchester inherited their hidden bunker, where Sam compiled the records of the supernatural entities discovered by the Men of Letters into one book, along with additions and annotations from the Winchesters informed by their time as hunters.”

The Men of Letters Bestiary will contain practically everything any fan will need to know to hit the ground running. With creatures from Heaven, Hell, and Earth, there is bound to be a plethora of knowledge within its 112 pages. The book will also come with commentary from Dean and everyone’s favorite being that can stumble upon an entire liquor store and drink it, Castiel. Check out the images below to see a sample of what will be available in the bestiary:

Written by Tim Waggoner and illustrated by Kyle Hotz, fans can obtain the hardcover bestiary when it is released on September 12. You may also pre-order it for the current price of $20.39. The book will actually be launching just one day before the 12th anniversary that the first episode of Supernatural aired. One month after the book arrives, season 13 will be upon us and will surely bring a host of new monsters and old. Then again, after what happened at the end of last season, there is no telling what will go down.
