Paris Hilton to star in Supernatural

Paris Hilton is apparently due to play a 'demonic creature' in TV show Supernatural.

The hotel heiress is trying her hand at acting again, as The Sun reports she is expected to appear in the fifth episode of the fifth series, which moves from ITV2 to Living.

Executive producer Eric Kripke said: "If anyone ever wanted to see a bloodthirsty Paris attack and kill somebody, this is your chance."

He added that he was "quite frankly shocked that Paris agreed to do it".

Writer Sera Gamble added: "We wrote the role just for her. We're very excited that she said yes.

"She plays the role of a demonic creature that takes the form of... Paris Hilton.

"If you know our style, you know we go pretty funny and irreverent with this stuff, so expect that. The fact that she wanted to do the episode speaks volumes about her sense of humour. She's flat-out awesome for playing along."

Paris starred alongside Jared Padalecki - who plays Supernatural's Sam Winchester - in 2005 horror movie House Of Wax.
