Shadow (Supernatural)

The Shadow is a Lovecraftian power in the fictional universe of the Supernatural television series, an "ancient cosmic entity" older than God who exhibits great destructive power when woken from eternal sleep.
==Background==
The Shadow is the oldest entity in the Supernatural cosmos. Before God or even the Darkness existed, there was only absolute nothingness. This giant nothing is actually sentient, has a true form that even angels would go mad from seeing, and its mindset is noticeably more alien than that of any other deity or cosmic entity. Like Cthulhu or Lord Dunsany's Mana-Yood-Sushai, its normal state is eternal sleep, and becomes a destructive force to the cosmos when awakened.
