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 THREE 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 WITHIN — CHRISTMAS SPECIAL
Episode Two: Merry Christmas, You’re Barely Holding It Together
Christmas movies aren’t comforting because they’re gentle.
They’re comforting because they tell the truth—quietly, sideways, and usually with jokes.
🎄 CHAPTERS & THEMES
Chapter One — National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
Clark Griswold isn’t chasing joy—he’s chasing proof.
This chapter explores financial insecurity, masculine identity, estranged family dynamics, and why a Christmas comedy casually escalates into corporate kidnapping, a SWAT raid, and what amounts to accidental domestic terrorism. Beneath the slapstick is a portrait of the American father under siege, holding everything together until he can’t.
Chapter Two — Home Alone
A childhood fantasy built on abandonment.
We look at how Home Alone feeds into fears children rarely get to articulate: being forgotten, being bullied, being left to survive on their own. Beneath the laughs are violent home invasions, unreliable adults, and the terrifying premise that busy working parents can forget one of their children—and not realize it until it’s almost too late.
Chapter Three — Die Hard
Yes. It’s a Christmas movie. Case closed.
This chapter puts the debate to rest and examines Die Hard as a story about estrangement, marriage, career versus identity, corporate espionage, terrorism, and reunion under existential threat. We also confront uncomfortable moments the movie doesn’t hide—including the use of deportation threats as leverage—and why Christmas is the only frame that makes reconciliation possible.
Bonus Chapter — Love Actually
A holiday classic made of red flags.
A rapid-fire breakdown of why Love Actually sends several terrible messages at once: workplace affairs, emotional coercion, infidelity, shame for choosing family over romance, power imbalances, fat jokes, and the normalization of harmful behavior—all wrapped in music, mistletoe, and sentimentality.
