History[]
Early History[]
Elizabeth's heart being stopped
Elizabeth Higgins was tending to her garden when her neighbor Amanda showed up. She asked why see was not at book club the night before. She then asked if she was ok. Later, Sam and Dean asked her questions about Amanda. They then notice how the flowers she was growing were out of season, then deducing that she was a witch.
Season 3[]
At the next book club meeting she asked her friends Renee and Tammi why they killed Amanda. They said it was because she went insane. So they continued with the meeting. Later on, Sam barges into the house with the Colt and holds them at gunpoint.
She found out that her friend Tammi was being possessed by a demon, and that she sold her soul to the demon. She then watches as the demon, Astaroth, snapped Renee's neck. Astaroth then threw Sam into the wall and does the same to Dean when he runs in.
Elizabeth watched as Astaroth pinned the boys to the wall and began to torture them. She grabbed pins from the table and cast a spell on the demon, stopping Astaroth from killing the Winchesters as the demon started to cough up blood and the pins.
The demon then stopped her heart, killing her. Elizabeth collapses onto the table, dead. Her spell frees the Winchesters, allowing Dean to use the distraction to grab the demon-killing knife and stab Astaroth to death.
Personality[]
Unlike most witches, Elizabeth doesn't have a malicious personality, having gotten into witchcraft to better her own life. She is shown to be horrified by many of the things occurring around her such as Amanda Burns' supposed suicide and appears to be an extremely nervous person with her reaction to Sam and Dean's questions being one of the things that gave her away to them as a witch.
After Tammi Fenton was revealed to be possessed by the demon Astaroth who subsequently killed Renee Van Allen, the absolutely terrified Elizabeth spent most of the following confrontation cowering in terror, causing the demon to completely ignore Elizabeth aside from giving her a glare at one point. Despite this, Elizabeth was shown to have a degree of courage when she risked the demon's wrath and ultimately gave her life to cast a hex on Astaroth to stop her from exorcising Ruby and killing the Winchesters.
