During their investigations they find a handprint, which Dean remembers seeing on one of their father's photographs when they were children. It's a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shtriga Shtriga]], an Albanian witch, which is draining the kids of their life force. It's only weak when it feeds and hides by disguising itself as a human. It's also one of the few monsters that got away from their father.
