EVIO Creative

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 August 30, 2026

Mother Nature reminds us who's in charge, a Colombian “sorcerer” faces the horrifying consequences of a healing ritual, The Fresno Nightcrawler walks into The New Monsters, Carolyn Ossorio investigates the murder of Dee Warner, and The Slippery opens the mailbag and reveals what they're working on next. Then, in This Week in Horror, we enter the deeply deranged children's television nightmare of Buddy.

THE CREEPIEST THING I HEARD THIS WEEK: THE SORCERER OF LIBORINA

This week's story takes us back to 2021 and rural Antioquia, Colombia, where a 31-year-old mother of four sought spiritual healing from a man known as the Sorcerer of Liborina.

According to prosecutors, Martín Rangel Londoño Jaramillo covered the woman with a homemade mixture containing alcohol, sulfur and camphor before setting fire to the substance as part of the ritual. The woman suffered burns across approximately 70 percent of her body. Investigators allege that instead of immediately seeking emergency treatment, the Sorcerer sent her home with an herbal remedy. She eventually reached a hospital in Medellín but died about a week later. Authorities subsequently arrested Londoño Jaramillo on a murder charge; he denied the accusations.

It's a disturbing reminder of an ancient human vulnerability: when we're suffering, we'll sometimes place extraordinary trust in anyone who promises they can make the suffering stop.

THIS WEEK ON THE DEVIL WITHIN

Our journey through The New Monsters continues with one of the internet age's strangest cryptids: The Fresno Nightcrawler.

It begins with grainy security footage from Fresno, California, showing a pale, impossibly thin figure seemingly composed almost entirely of legs walking across a lawn in the middle of the night. The footage raised far more questions than it answered—and then the Nightcrawler received the one thing every aspiring cryptid needs if it hopes to become genuine folklore:

A second sighting.

Hear the incredible story of the Fresno Nightcrawler this week on The Devil Within.

CRIMINAL MISCHIEF

Carolyn Ossorio investigates the disappearance and murder of Dee Warner, a Michigan mother of five who vanished from her property in 2021 following an argument with her husband, Dale. Years of searching ultimately led investigators back to the property, where Dee's remains were discovered concealed inside a fertilizer tank. Dale Warner was subsequently convicted of second-degree murder and tampering with evidence.

Carolyn takes us through the disappearance, the investigation and the breakthrough that finally revealed what happened to Dee.

THE SLIPPERY

Scott and Nancy revisit several stories they've covered so far, bringing us new developments, unanswered questions and cases that weren't nearly as finished as they appeared.

They'll also take us behind the scenes to reveal what's currently being investigated—including a new cancer scammer series coming this fall—before opening the mailbag to respond to your comments, questions and observations about the show.

THIS WEEK IN HORROR: BUDDY

Director Casper Kelly, the wonderfully warped mind behind Too Many Cooks, brings us Buddy, a supernatural black comedy starring Cristin Milioti, Delaney Quinn, Topher Grace and Michael Shannon, with Patton Oswalt and Keegan-Michael Key joining the madness.

The premise? A group of children become trapped inside an aggressively cheerful 1990s-style television show hosted by a giant bright-orange unicorn named Buddy. The songs are catchy, the colors are bright, the life lessons are plentiful—and then Buddy decides his young friends aren't leaving.

It's childhood nostalgia fed through a wood chipper, and frankly, we're in.

The Eyes of Fear

The New Monsters – Story Five, Episode Three

Why do monsters survive in an age of science?

Why do ancient fears continue to evolve in a world filled with smartphones, surveillance cameras, artificial intelligence, and instant access to information?

And why, after nearly thirty years, do people still report encounters with the Black-Eyed Children?

In the concluding chapter of this three-part investigation, The Devil Within moves beyond eyewitness accounts and paranormal speculation to explore a more fascinating question: why do stories like this refuse to die?

This week, Branden Morgan examines the remarkable science behind memory, intuition, and eyewitness testimony, revealing why the human brain is far more sophisticated—and far less reliable—than most of us realize. Are the Black-Eyed Children evidence of something supernatural? Could they be the product of suggestion, folklore, and the extraordinary way our minds reconstruct emotionally charged experiences? Or does the truth lie somewhere between those two possibilities?

As the investigation unfolds, we discover that the legend's greatest strength may have nothing to do with black eyes at all. Instead, it lies in a deeply familiar human experience: the unsettling feeling that something is wrong long before we can explain why. It is a sensation nearly everyone has experienced at some point in life—a warning whispered by instinct before conscious thought has assembled the evidence.

The episode then widens its lens to examine the evolution of modern mythology itself. From the changelings of Celtic folklore to vampires, fairies, ghost children, and finally the Black-Eyed Children, every civilization has created stories about strangers who appear almost human while violating some deeply rooted expectation of what it means to be safe. These legends are less about proving the supernatural than preserving emotional truths that transcend generations.

As The Black-Eyed Children comes to its haunting conclusion, the series also completes the first chapter of The New Monsters.

Together, these stories have explored the fears that define our age. The Frogman reflected our growing anxiety over environmental collapse. The Montauk Monster embodied our suspicion of powerful institutions. Slender Man demonstrated that mythology can now be created collaboratively by millions of strangers. The Backrooms transformed the architecture of modern life into the haunted houses of the twenty-first century. And now, The Black-Eyed Children ask perhaps the oldest question of all:

Can we still trust what appears familiar?

Because every generation creates its own monsters.

But the greatest monsters have never been the creatures lurking in the darkness.

They've always been the ones standing in the light.

Next time on The New Monsters, we investigate one of the strangest pieces of modern cryptid folklore ever captured on camera. A grainy security video from Fresno, California appears to show an impossible figure walking calmly across a suburban lawn. No arms. No visible torso. Just two impossibly long white legs gliding effortlessly through the darkness.

Could it be a camera hoax?

An elaborate costume?

Or the birth of another modern monster?

Join us as we investigate The Fresno Nightcrawler.

The New Monsters: The Black-Eyed Children - Part Two

The Children at the Door

They never break in.

They never force the door.

They simply ask.

In the second chapter of The Black-Eyed Children, Branden Morgan investigates one of the most unsettling patterns in modern paranormal folklore. Following journalist Brian Bethel's now- famous encounter in Texas, reports of eerily similar experiences began surfacing across NorthAmerica. 

Different witnesses. 

Different cities. 

Different decades. 

Yet the stories shared an astonishing number of details.

Two children.

Late at night.

Perfectly polite.

An overwhelming sense that something is terribly wrong.

And one simple request.

"May we come inside?"

THE DEVIL’S LEDGER

Week of August 24, 2026

It is still freakin’ August.

This week on The Devil’s Ledger, we surrender to the heat and turn our attention toward masked lunatics, black-eyed children, Victorian blackmail, spectacular fraud, and another trip into a supernatural dimension that desperately needs better lighting.

We begin with The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week: The Chucky Mask Spree. Philadelphia police say a masked man targeted at least half a dozen people during a bizarre early-morning spree, including a 40-year-old jogger whom he allegedly chased after asking whether she was ready to die. Surveillance cameras captured the suspect wearing a Chucky-style doll mask—and investigators noticed that beneath it he appeared to be wearing another black face covering.

Fictional monsters are considerably less entertaining when someone decides to wear their face in the real world.

👹 THIS WEEK ON THE DEVIL WITHIN

The New Monsters continues with The Black-Eyed Children, one of the internet age’s most unsettling urban legends.

They appear outside homes, beside cars and on lonely streets asking for help—and eventually asking to be allowed inside. Then their victims notice the eyes: completely black.

We trace the origins of the legend, how the stories spread across the internet, and the much older piece of folklore hiding beneath them: the idea that evil sometimes requires an invitation.

This week on The Devil Within: The New Monsters — The Black-Eyed Children.

🔎 THIS WEEK ON CRIMINAL MISCHIEF

Carolyn Ossorio trades true crime for the original master detective with a special reading of Arthur Conan Doyle’s “A Scandal in Bohemia.”

First published in 1891, the story introduces Irene Adler, the extraordinary woman who manages to do what remarkably few characters in the Sherlock Holmes canon ever accomplish: outmaneuver Holmes himself.

Royalty, romance, blackmail, disguises and one dangerously important photograph send Holmes and Watson into one of Doyle’s cleverest adventures.

Pour yourself something appropriate, settle in and prepare for a trip to 221B Baker Street.

And yes, we’re allowing Carolyn to attempt the accents.

We may regret this.

💰 THIS WEEK ON THE SLIPPERY

Meet Lacy Johnson, a woman accused of approaching fraud less like a specialty and more like an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Her alleged schemes ranged from faking a life-threatening cancer diagnosis and operating a bogus charity purportedly supporting American troops to identity theft, financial manipulation and even burglarizing and vandalizing the home of a former employer.

Her most devastating alleged cons, however, were reserved for the people who believed they were closest to her: romantic partners who discovered that intimacy itself could become another tool for extracting money.

It’s The Relentless Hustle of Lyin’ Lacy Johnson, this week on The Slippery.

🎬 THIS WEEK IN HORROR

We’re heading back into The Further with Insidious: Out of the Further, the sixth installment in the Insidious franchise.

This time, Gemma discovers she possesses the ability to enter The Further—and, considerably less conveniently, bring things back with her.

Naturally, the inhabitants of that purgatorial nightmare eventually realize what she can do. Lin Shaye also returns as Elise Rainier, continuing her admirable refusal to allow something as trivial as death to interfere with steady employment.

Sometimes you want elevated horror examining grief, trauma and the existential uncertainty of human existence.

Sometimes you want demons.

This week, we’re going with demons.
