The Devil Within is a cinematic podcast about the stories that refuse to die — the legends, disappearances, curses, and supernatural encounters that linger long after the world moves on.

Each episode blends history, folklore, and investigation to explore what really happened… and why these stories still haunt us.

From mythical creatures and haunted places, to strange crimes and unexplained phenomena, The Devil Within starts where the facts end — and the unanswered questions begin.

New episodes weekly. Bring a light. You may need it.

BINGE THE FIRST FOUR SEASONS NOW!

Season 1: The Jersey Devil - The brutal slaying of BETTY ANN SULLIVAN shocked the small town of Jefferson Township, New Jersey. The violence of that evening shocked the nation for the perpetrator... was her own son, a boy of fourteen who would take his own life only hours later. What the investigation revealed left a community in tatters, unwilling to believe the evil that had befallen them.

Season 2: The Demons of Yorkshire - In 1974 after experiencing financial hardship, Michael Taylor joined a local church in the rolling hills of Northern England. After falling in love with a young, beautiful preacher, Michael’s personality began to change. The mild-mannered family man became abusive and unhinged. His new church believed he was possessed by no fewer than 48 demons and would require an exorcism to save his soul and protect his family from evil. But the supposed remedy would come at a very steep price... 

Season 3: A Season in Hell - In the late 1970's New York City had it all: Hip Hop, Punk Rock... and the Son of Sam. The third season of The Devil Within takes listeners into the belly of the beast and explores the wicked origins, reign of terror and ultimate capture of one of the most feared serial killers in history. With exclusive interviews from journalists, FBI agents, historians and mental health experts this season promises to be the most comprehensive - and most terrifying - account of how one man brought New York City to a standstill.

Season 4: Satan's Shadow - In the 1980s, California learned that fear doesn’t always lurk in the dark.

Sometimes, it walks right through the door.

SATAN’S SHADOW follows the terrifying rise of Richard Ramirez — the Night Stalker — while tracing his crimes alongside Dante Alighieri’s Inferno. As Ramirez descends deeper into violence, we descend with him through Dante’s circles of hell, asking what happens to a city — and a soul — when darkness becomes a spectacle.

Across nine episodes, each chapter pairs the facts of the case with a brief lesson from Dante: desire twisted into obsession, cruelty masquerading as power, betrayal, violence, and the chilling fascination that draws us closer instead of pushing us away.

Because Ramirez didn’t just kill.

He captivated.

He made the world watch — and forced us to confront the part of ourselves that can’t look away.

Bonus episodes explore the trial, aftermath, and the myths that followed — along with glimpses into Purgatorio and Paradiso, and whether redemption or meaning is possible after horror.

SATAN’S SHADOW isn’t only about a murderer.

It’s about a culture slowly walking toward darkness…

and what it costs to climb back out.

The Devil’s Ledger | Week of June 8th, 2026

On this week’s episode of The Devil’s Ledger, we kick things off with an honest—and slightly humbling—moment: a long-overdue shoutout to the New York Knicks. Not quite back on the bandwagon… but definitely watching with a mix of excitement and regret.

Then we dive into The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week—a trip to Pine Bush, New York, home of the annual UFO Fair. What feels like a quirky small-town festival quickly reveals something deeper: decades of reported sightings, unexplained aerial phenomena, and a community that didn’t deny the stories… it embraced them.

On The Devil Within

Season Five—What We Built… And What We Buried—comes to a powerful close with two of the most disturbing government programs ever uncovered:

 • MK-Ultra

 • The Tuskegee Syphilis Study

Two vastly different operations. One unsettling truth: what happens when institutions designed to protect people begin to use them instead?

On Criminal Mischief

After last week’s shocking case, Carolyn returns with something a little less graphic—but no less terrifying.

Less gore.
More intrigue.
Same relentless tension.

On The Culture of Criminal Cool

Season One wraps this week—and it hits harder than expected.

The story of Adam Diaz has never been just about crime. It’s about identity, power, and the cost of becoming the persona you create.

And if you’re worried about what fills that slot next week… don’t be.

On The Slippery

Fresh off CrimeCon Las Vegas, Scott and Nancy are back with another deep dive into deception.

New con.
New victim.
And another unraveling that proves—eventually—the truth always catches up.

🚨 NEW SHOW ALERT: Forever Young 🚨

From Dr. John Layke and Dr. Payman Danielpour of the Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery Group comes Forever Young—a deep, behind-the-scenes look at:

 • Plastic surgery

 • Skincare

 • Longevity science

With hundreds of episodes already available, this is your go-to resource for everything health, beauty, and aging at the highest level.

Now part of the Evio Network.

This Week in Horror

A new trailer has dropped from horror legend Eli Roth:

Ice Cream Man

A twisted, throwback slasher concept—with a brutal twist:

It’s not one killer.

It’s dozens.

Kids—turned into something else entirely.

Dark. Chaotic. And looks like a wild ride.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of June 8th.

🎧 The Devil Within

What We Built… And What We Buried

Episode 10: The Air That Turned Against Us

Some dangers are immediate.

Others…

Become part of the air.

❄️ The Problem

Early refrigeration worked.

But it was dangerous:

 • Toxic chemicals

 • Explosive leaks

 • Immediate, visible harm

A safer solution was needed.

🧪 The Solution

Once again, Thomas Midgley Jr. delivered:

👉 Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)

They were:

 • Stable

 • Non-toxic

 • Non-flammable

In every measurable way:

👉 Perfect

🌫️ The Shift

And so they spread.

Into:

 • Homes

 • Industry

 • The atmosphere itself

Because stability…

Doesn’t always mean containment.

☢️ The Discovery

High above the Earth:

 • UV radiation broke down CFCs

 • Released chlorine atoms

 • Began destroying ozone

Not instantly.

But persistently.

🌍 The Consequence

The ozone layer—Earth’s shield—began to thin.

What once felt invisible…

Became measurable.

Then undeniable.

🧠 The Response

For once, the system corrected itself:

👉 Global cooperation

👉 The Montreal Protocol

👉 Gradual phase-out of CFCs

And over time…

Signs of recovery.

😈 The Devil Within

The Devil Within this story isn’t the chemical.

It’s delay.

Because by the time we understood the damage…

👉 It was already everywhere.

🔜 Next Episode

Next, the pattern turns inward.

Not machines.
Not atmosphere.

👉 People.

What We Built… And What We Buried: Episode Ten - The Air That Turned Against Us

🎧 The Devil Within

What We Built… And What We Buried

Episode 9: The Man Who Fixed Everything

Some problems don’t break systems.

They limit them.

And in the early days of the automobile, one of those problems had a name:

Engine knock.

🧪 The Solution

Enter Thomas Midgley Jr..

A problem-solver who didn’t redesign the engine…

He changed the fuel.

👉 Tetraethyl lead

A chemical additive that:

 • Eliminated engine knock

 • Increased performance

 • Allowed the modern automobile to scale

It worked.

Perfectly.

🌍 The Spread

The solution didn’t stay in the lab.

It moved:

 • Into fuel systems

 • Into infrastructure

 • Into the global environment

Because once something works…

It doesn’t stay contained.

⚠️ The Cost

What improved engines didn’t stay in engines.

Lead entered:

 • The air

 • The soil

 • The human body

And over time:

👉 The cost accumulated

 • Neurological damage

 • Developmental harm

 • A global environmental footprint

😈 The Devil Within

This isn’t a story about failure.

It’s about success without full understanding.

Because the solution didn’t just fix the problem…

It changed everything around it.

🔜 Next Episode

The same mind.
A different problem.

And a solution that didn’t affect the ground…

👉 It affected the sky.

🎧 The Devil Within

What We Built… And What We Buried

Episode Eight: The Man Who Drank Poison

Some stories don’t end.

They rupture.

🍷 The Event

A meeting.

Three men.

A drink.

Then suddenly—

A reaction.

A collapse.

And a statement that would define everything that followed:

“They poisoned me.”

⚠️ The Death

Stanley Meyer was dead within hours.

The official cause:

👉 Cerebral aneurysm

 • Sudden

 • Catastrophic

 • Medically consistent

No poison found.
No evidence of foul play.

Case closed.

🧠 The Problem

Except…

The story didn’t close.

Because the death didn’t happen in isolation.

It followed a claim that had already disrupted expectation.

And when those two things collide—

👉 An unresolved invention
👉 An abrupt death

The narrative doesn’t settle.

It expands.

🔍 Two Realities

From that moment forward, two versions exist:

 1 The official explanation

 ◦ Medical

 ◦ Verifiable

 ◦ Complete

 2 The alternative narrative

 ◦ Suggestive

 ◦ Unproven

 ◦ Persistent

And neither one fully erases the other.

🧩 The Pattern

This is how stories like this survive:

 • The invention is never proven

 • The death is explained—but not satisfying

 • The gap between the two becomes the story

Because once belief attaches itself…

It doesn’t require evidence to continue.

😈 The Devil Within

The unsettling truth isn’t what happened in that restaurant.

It’s what happened after.

👉 The willingness to fill gaps with meaning
👉 The need for the story to resolve in a way that feels bigger than the facts
👉 The quiet shift from what is known… to what is believed

🔜 Next Episode

Next time, we move into a different kind of danger:

Not ideas that may not have worked…

But ideas that worked too well.

What We Built… And What We Buried: Episode Eight - The Man Who Drank Poison

The Devil’s Ledger — Week of June 1st, 2026

Happy Blue Moon.

As a rare second full moon lights up the skies over Los Angeles, we take a moment to reflect—on endings, beginnings, and the strange things that seem to surface when the night feels just a little too still.

And to all the graduates out there—congratulations. Wherever you’re headed next, may you do wonderful things… big and small.

The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week

This week, we explore the unsettling legend of Grace—a Victorian-era doll that has gone from antique curiosity to one of the UK’s most talked-about haunted artifacts.

Once an ordinary toy, Grace’s reputation began in 2018 during a paranormal investigation where guests reported physical symptoms, unexplained movement, and chilling electronic voice phenomena. Since then, the doll has followed investigators from location to location, leaving behind a trail of reported disturbances, recorded voices, and growing fascination.

Now, in the latest development, investigators claim to have captured a single, chilling word coming from the doll:

“Burn.”

Is it evidence of something attached to the artifact… or simply the power of suggestion taking hold?

Either way, Grace has become something more than a relic of the past—she’s a modern legend.

The Devil Within

Season Five (What We Built… And What We Buried) continues with “The Man Who Fixed Everything.”

This episode examines the chemist who introduced chlorofluorocarbons—CFCs—as a safer alternative to toxic refrigeration gases.

At the time, it was a breakthrough.

Cleaner. Safer. Stable.

A solution.

But what followed was something far larger—and far more damaging—than anyone anticipated. A global consequence that reshaped how we understand unintended impact, and the cost of innovation without foresight.

Criminal Mischief

Carolyn is back after a brief hiatus with another meticulously researched deep dive into the darker corners of human behavior.

As always, this isn’t just storytelling—it’s reconstruction.

The Culture of Criminal Cool

We’re now up to Episode 5, and the response has been incredible.

Thank you to everyone who’s been listening, commenting, and sharing.

Adam Diaz is proving to be exactly what we thought—a story worth telling.

The Slippery

Nancy and Scott return with another hard-to-believe story of deception, betrayal, and outright grift.

The kind of story that makes you stop mid-episode and ask—

How did this actually happen?

This show is quickly becoming a must-listen.

This Week in Horror

Something is shifting.

Two films—Obsession and Backrooms—have taken over the box office.

Both from creators who came out of YouTube.

Not the traditional system.

Not the usual pipeline.

New voices. New instincts.

And audiences are showing up in a big way.

Is this a moment… or the beginning of something bigger?

Watch them. Then let me know what you think.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of June 1st, 2026

🎧 The Devil Within

What We Built… And What We Buried

Episode 7: The Car That Ran on Water

What if the system we depend on… was never necessary?

This week, The Devil Within explores one of the most persistent—and controversial—claims of the modern era:

A car powered not by gasoline…

But by water.

💧 The Claim

Inventor Stanley Meyer introduced a device he called a water fuel cell—a system that appeared to power a vehicle using one of the most abundant substances on Earth.

Water goes in.
The engine turns.
The car moves.

No visible fuel.

🎥 The Demonstrations

Observers saw it.

A modified vehicle—simple, exposed, almost unimpressive—running in a way that defied expectation.

 • No gasoline input

 • No obvious trick

 • A functioning engine

And that’s all it took.

Because once something appears to work…

Belief follows quickly.

🧠 The Shift

The story stopped being about engineering.

And became about possibility.

👉 Freedom from fuel
👉 Independence from cost
👉 A system no longer controlled

Because the idea didn’t just solve a problem.

It erased it.

⚠️ The Fault Line

But demonstrations aren’t proof.

And when the questions came…

They didn’t go away:

 • Where does the energy come from?

 • Does the system produce more energy than it consumes?

 • Can it be replicated?

Because there’s a rule that doesn’t bend:

👉 Energy cannot be created from nothing

😈 The Devil Within

This episode isn’t about whether the car worked.

It’s about why people needed it to.

Because belief doesn’t require completion.

It requires just enough evidence… to begin.

🔜 Next Episode

What happened next didn’t end the story.

What We Built… And What We Buried: Episode Seven - The Car That Ran on Water

The Devil’s Ledger — Week of May 25th, 2026

This Memorial Day, we take a moment to honor the true meaning behind the holiday—remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

Then, in The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week, we head to Los Angeles and explore the infamous Rosenheim Mansion—better known as the “Murder House” from American Horror Story. A historic home turned horror icon, its legacy blurs the line between fiction and reality, leaving one unsettling question: does a place become haunted… simply because we believe it is? 

Over on The Devil Within, Season Five (What We Built… And What We Buried) continues with Episode 7—a deep dive into the legendary “car that ran on water.” Was it a revolutionary breakthrough, an elaborate hoax, or something quietly buried by industries that couldn’t afford to let it succeed?

Criminal Mischief is off this week, but Carolyn returns next episode. In the meantime, don’t miss Evio Creative’s newest hit, The Culture of Criminal Cool, following the rise and fall of drug kingpin Adam Diaz. This week features Episode 4 plus a bonus episode—a candid retraction and mea culpa as the team sets the record straight.

Finding Me with Josh Wolf is on a brief hiatus as a major announcement looms—stay tuned.

And on The Slippery, Scott and Nancy continue exposing some of the most fascinating cons in history.

This Week in Horror:
The biggest Memorial Day weekend opening for a horror film belongs to A Quiet Place Part II (2021), which earned $57 million. Directed by John Krasinski, the film—and its 2018 predecessor—help redefine modern horror through silence, tension, and atmosphere.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of May 25th

🎧 The Devil Within

What We Built… And What We Buried

Episode 6: The Cost of Free Energy

Not all endings look like endings.

Some just… slow down.

🏗️ The Tower That Didn’t Fall

Wardenclyffe didn’t collapse.

It lingered.

A structure:

 • Built

 • Funded

 • Nearly realized

But no longer moving forward.

🧠 The Reality

Tesla’s idea didn’t fail.

It was never fully tested.

Not because it couldn’t work…

But because the world couldn’t support what it would become.

💰 The System Problem

Electricity wasn’t just power.

It was a relationship:

 • Producer → Consumer

 • Delivery → Payment

 • Usage → Measurement

Remove the wires…

And that relationship breaks.

❓ The Unanswered Question

Without a meter:

 • Who owns the energy?

 • Who controls access?

 • How is value assigned?

These aren’t engineering problems.

They’re system problems.

🛑 The Withdrawal

Support didn’t vanish overnight.

It faded.

 • Delays

 • Hesitation

 • Reduced funding

Until eventually…

Everything just stopped.

🧬 The Afterlife of an Idea

Tesla didn’t stop believing.

But without proof—without a completed system—his work began to shift:

 • From innovation

 • To speculation

 • To myth

Meanwhile, the world doubled down on wires.

⚠️ The Hard Truth

Most people want this to be a story about suppression.

It’s not that clean.

Nothing was destroyed.

Nothing was officially rejected.

The idea just…

didn’t continue.

😈 The Devil Within

The real tension isn’t whether Tesla was right.

It’s this:

👉 The world isn’t shaped by what’s possible
👉 It’s shaped by what can be supported

And support requires alignment.

🔜 Next Episode

From energy… to motion.

A machine that claimed it could run without fuel.

Stanley Meyer—and the car that ran on water.

What We Built... And What We Buried: Episode Six - The Cost of Free Energy

🎧 The Devil Within

What We Built… And What We Buried

Episode 5: The World Without Wires

What if electricity didn’t need wires at all?

Not improved.
Not optimized.

Eliminated.

⚡ The Idea

At the turn of the 20th century, the world was building a system:

 • Power plants

 • Transmission lines

 • Meters

 • Control

Electricity had become something that could be measured… delivered… and billed.

And then came Nikola Tesla…

With a different vision.

🌍 The Disruption

Tesla wasn’t trying to improve the grid.

He was trying to replace it.

A world where:

 • Energy moves through the air

 • The Earth itself acts as a conductor

 • Power is accessed—not delivered

No wires.
No infrastructure.
No clear point of control.

🏗️ Wardenclyffe

On Long Island, Tesla began building it:

Wardenclyffe Tower

A massive structure designed to:

 • Transmit energy wirelessly

 • Use the Earth as part of the circuit

 • Prove that electricity could exist everywhere… simultaneously

This wasn’t theory.

It was being built.

💰 The Collision

Backed by J. P. Morgan, the project had momentum.

Until the scope became clear.

Because wireless communication was one thing.

Wireless power was another.

❓ The Question

As the vision expanded, one problem emerged:

Where do you put the meter?

Not a technical issue.

A structural one.

Because if energy can’t be measured…
It can’t be monetized.

🛑 The Shift

Funding slowed.
Support faded.
Construction stalled.

The tower wasn’t destroyed.

It just… stopped.

😈 The Devil Within

This isn’t about suppression.

It’s about something more uncomfortable:

👉 Ideas don’t survive because they’re possible
👉 They survive because they fit the system

And this one didn’t.

🎧 The Devil’s Ledger

Week of May 18, 2026

Spring is here—and summer isn’t far behind.

Another packed week across the Evio Creative Network, with new stories, new episodes, and a look at both the past… and what may be waiting at the end of it.

👁️ The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week

The End of the Green River Killer

News broke that Gary Ridgway—one of the most prolific serial killers in U.S. history—is now receiving end-of-life care.

Operating for decades around Seattle, Ridgway targeted vulnerable women, ultimately confessing to 48 murders—though the true number may be higher.

What made Ridgway especially disturbing wasn’t just the scale of his crimes…

It was his ability to disappear into ordinary life while carrying out systematic, calculated violence.

And if there is such a thing as justice beyond this world?

Dante may have already decided his fate.

👉 The Seventh Circle of Hell—Violence
👉 Submerged in the river of boiling blood, Phlegethon
👉 Depth determined by the severity of the crimes

For Ridgway?

You can probably guess how deep that goes.

🔥 On The Devil Within

What We Built… And What We Buried

This week, we explore the genius—and the unfinished vision—of Nikola Tesla.

A man who attempted something radical:

👉 Wireless electricity
👉 Energy delivered through the air
👉 Power, accessible anywhere

And this wasn’t just an idea.

The Wardenclyffe Tower was actually built in New York.

So why did it stop?

And what happens when an idea doesn’t fail—but simply… disappears?

💰 On Criminal Mischief

With the “Hollywood” series wrapped, Carolyn Ossorio turns the page.

A new case is coming.

And if history is any indication…

It won’t be quiet.

🎙️ On The Culture of Criminal Cool

Episode Three continues the rise of Adam Diaz.

Because becoming a drug lord isn’t a straight line.

It’s messy. It’s dangerous.

And somehow…

Still just funny enough to keep you hooked.

⚠️ On The Slippery

Another scam exposed.

Another takedown.

👉 The victims get justice
👉 The scammers get what’s coming

Scott and Nancy take you behind the curtain once again.

🧠 On Finding Me with Josh Wolf

Josh is closing in on 100 episodes.

And things are shifting.

He’s getting closer to making the call he’s been circling for months:

👉 Professional help
👉 Real change
👉 The next phase

And the truth?

He couldn’t have gotten here without this journey.

🎬 This Week in Horror

Obsession

Directed by Curry Barker, this film follows a hopeless romantic who uses a mystical “One Wish Willow” to make his crush fall in love with him…

Only to discover that some wishes come with consequences.

Starring Michael Johnston and Inde Navarrette, the film premiered at TIFF and is now in U.S. theaters via Focus Features.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of May 18th

🎧 The Ides of April

The Parade: The Assassination of Anwar Sadat

🏛️ Episode One: The Hero’s Welcome

Cairo. October 6th, 1981.

A perfect morning.
A nation celebrating victory.
A president at the height of his power.

And a moment—just seconds long—that will change everything.

Anwar Sadat stands before a cheering crowd, marking the anniversary of the October War—the defining triumph of his presidency.

He is a man who has survived prison, revolution, war, and political betrayal.

A man who believes—deeply—that history is shaped by those willing to act.

But the salute he rises to receive…

Is not a salute at all.

🧠 In This Episode:

The early life of Anwar Sadat—from rural Egypt to revolutionary

His radicalization under British occupation and time in prison

The rise of the Free Officers Movement and the shadow of Gamal Abdel Nasser

The 1973 war and the restoration of Egyptian national pride

The unprecedented decision to make peace with Israel—and its consequences

✈️ The Point of No Return

In 1977, Sadat flies to Israel.

He stands before the Knesset.
He speaks of peace.

And in doing so—

He redraws the map of the Middle East.

He also signs his own death warrant.

⚖️ The Shift

To some, he is a visionary.

To others—

A traitor.

Pamphlets begin circulating.
Arguments turn theological.

And somewhere inside Egypt…

A plan begins to form.

🎯 The Takeaway

Sadat believed one man could change history.

He was right.

But history has a cost.
