The Winchester brothers will be dealing with a pack of werewolves in the next episode of "Supernatural" season 11, titled "Red Meat."

Sam and Dean will be pursued by the unwelcome lycanthropes, which appear to have charged into a house in the middle of the woods and have taken over it.

The brothers have dealt with these creatures multiple times in "Supernatural" but it is only this time that these werewolves may have actually come close to killing them.

According to the synopsis of the "Supernatural" season 11 episode, the duo is about to emerge victorious until one sneaky werewolf turns the table and shoots Sam while Dean isn't looking.

While the brothers have always cheated death, this particular incident may potentially see Sam stay dead, if the promo for the "Supernatural" season 11 episode is any indication.

"No more second chances. I'm here to reap you," an angel of Death says. It seems that Dean is looking for a bargain that will save his little brother's life.

But as the synopsis for the "Supernatural" season 11 episode suggests, Dean will be able to get his wounded brother out of the house as well as other victims there but not necessarily out of harm's way.

The werewolves won't allow them to get out of their sight, now that they are close to killing them. The pack will follow them wherever they will go to get the job done.

Whether or not this "Supernatural" season 11 episode will see the end of Sam remains to be seen, but it is indeed something that viewers should worry about.

Of course, fans believe that the half of the most fearsome tandem in the supernatural world is yet to meet his demise. But it is unquestionably the closest encounter Sam has ever had with death and the Reaper.

"Supernatural" season 11 episode 17 "Red Meat" airs March 30 at 9 p.m. ET on CW.
