The de-posessed Meg Masters may also be considered to die a refrigerator death at the end of season one as she dies to show the boys how terrible the demons truly are. Bela Talbot is revealed to have been raped by her father as a child before being killed, and although her death does not motivate the lead characters it is intended to compel the audience.to:
