Sam Winchester (Jared Padalecki) will get a blast from the past in "Supernatural’s" upcoming 11th season. The CW’s enduring horror series has cast Nate Torrence as Sully, Sam’s imaginary friend from childhood, Variety has learned exclusively.

Sully appears in episode 1108, titled 'Just My Imagination', because he needs Sam and Dean’s (Jensen Ackles) help. The episode will be directed by "Supernatural" alum Richard Speight Jr., who memorably played the angel Gabriel (and moonlighted as The Trickster) in various episodes between seasons two and nine.



Speight and fellow "Supernatural" fan favorite Rob Benedict also moderated the show’s 2015 panel at San Diego Comic-Con, and are currently working on a crowdfunded webseries called "Kings of Con" which raised almost $300,000 earlier this year.

"Supernatural" season 11 premieres Wednesday, Oct. 7 at 9 p.m. on The CW.
