The Devil Within

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 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 Wrong Road... Why Didn't They Turn Around?!

    THE DEVIL WITHIN — The Wrong Road (Part One) Five young men leave a college basketball game on February 24, 1978—excited for the Special Olympics tournament waiting the next morning. They should have been home within hours. Instead, they drive into the Sierra Nevada foothills… and the road begins to climb. In Part One, we follow the Yuba County Five—Gary Mathias, Bill Sterling, Ted Weiher, Jack Huett, and Jack Madruga—as the night quietly turns hostile. A familiar drive becomes unfamiliar territory. A dependable car becomes a stranded shelter. And the most unsettling part isn’t what happened to them… …it’s what they did next. The Mercury Montego wasn’t wrecked. It wasn’t empty. It could have kept them alive. But they abandoned it—walking uphill into the darkness, away from help, into a forest that swallowed logic and sound. This isn’t the story of a killer hiding in the trees. It’s a story about panic, cold, and how winter can turn the human mind against itself. Part Two is coming next—deep in the forest, where the real questions begin. 🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW If you’re enjoying the show, make sure you’re following the entire Evio Creative lineup wherever you get your podcasts—The Devil Within, The Ides of April, Criminal Mischief, Taboo Treasures, Finding ME with Josh Wolf and more—so you never miss a new episode. ⭐ RATE & REVIEW Ratings and reviews genuinely help independent shows grow.

    Introducing MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY: The KEYS to a Meaningful Life (Love, Faith, Family & Turning Failure into Growth) from On Purpose with Jay Shetty. Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay Shetty Matthew McConaughey didn’t build his life by trying to control every outcome. He built it by learning when to let go and when to trust. Today, Jay sits down with Matthew for a raw, unfiltered exploration of purpose, faith, discipline, and what it really means to live well. It’s an honest conversation about the moments that shape us, and the choices that quietly define who we become. Together, they move through certainty and surrender, ambition and presence, effort and trust. Matthew opens up about his lifelong relationship with achievement and his growing desire to create space for stillness, daydreaming, and reflection. He shares how writing became a way to strip away filters and speak more directly to his truth, and how fatherhood reshaped his understanding of responsibility, humility, and love. Jay and Matthew explore failure as a sign of growth, and how disappointment when met with self-awareness, can teach rather than define us. Together they reveal a powerful insight: growth doesn’t come from trying to perfect ourselves, but from learning how to stay present, curious, and grounded through every season of life.  Matthew reflects on the balance between taking responsibility and letting go, between striving for excellence and accepting imperfection. He shares why he believes the world is conspiring to make us happy, not through ease, but through meaning, effort, and alignment. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Trust Life Without Losing Control How to Redefine Success Beyond Achievement How to Learn From Failure Without Shame How to Build Trust Before You Need It How to Stay Present Without Chasing Perfection How to Strengthen Love Through Daily Intention How to Find Meaning When Answers Aren’t Clear Life isn’t asking you to be perfect, it’s asking you to be present. To stay curious. To keep learning. To choose courage over comfort and intention over autopilot. No matter where you are right now, progress is still possible, meaning is still available, and your next step matters.

    The Devil's Ledger - Week of January 12th

    The Devil’s Ledger — January 12, 2026 The Dead Time of WinterWelcome back to The Devil’s Ledger — and to the cold dead heart of winter. For the next six weeks, the world slows down, the nights stretch longer, and the quiet gets louder. Stay alert, stay calm… and stay inside. This week, on The Devil Within, we launch a two-part series on one of the most haunting disappearances in American true crime: The Yuba County Five. Five young men leave a basketball game in 1978 and take the wrong road into the mountains. Their car is found abandoned — functional, not wrecked, and capable of sheltering them — but they left it behind and walked uphill into the snow. No killer. No chase. Just winter, fear, and the terrible power of confusion. On The Ides of April, we conclude The Quiet Death of an Empire with Part Two of the assassination of Tsar Nicholas II, and examine the enduring controversy that Anastasia may have survived the bloodbath. This week on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn delivers an update on the so-called Torso Killer case from New York and New Jersey in the 1970s — including a new jailhouse confession and an exclusive interview with Dr. Peter Vronsky, the author and expert who literally wrote the book on the Golden Age of serial killers. The boys from Taboo Treasures are still on winter break, but they’ll be back soon. In This Week in Horror, we recommend We Bury the Dead — a chilling zombie film where a military mistake sparks catastrophe… and the cover-up doesn’t go as planned. And don’t miss our new daily show on the network: Finding Me with Josh Wolf — honest, hilarious, and quickly becoming a must-listen.

    Things That Go BUMP in the Night - Part Two

    ⭐️ EPISODE 2 SHOW NOTES The Kelly–Hopkinsville Goblins, Part Two: What We Brought Into the Dark Daylight was supposed to explain everything. Instead, the sheriff found shattered glass, bullet-scarred walls, shaken witnesses — and almost no evidence that anything had ever been there. As investigators, skeptics, neighbors, and UFO hunters descended on the Sutton farm, a new explanation crept into the story: meteor trails… unusual bird behavior… and the unsettling truth about how fear spreads through a room like wildfire. In Part Two, we walk the property again — slowly, carefully — and ask the question no one really wants to face: What if the attack came not from the sky… …but from inside the human mind? Because if the monsters weren’t real — then something far more disturbing was. Stay through the closing thought.

    Things That Go BUMP in the Night - Part One

    The Kelly–Hopkinsville Goblins, Part One: The Things at the Window On a sweltering Kentucky night in 1955, a family on a rural farm claimed they were surrounded by small, shining “beings” that moved through the yard, climbed onto the roof, and pressed their faces against the windows. They fired round after round into the dark. And nothing — and no one — fell. This isn’t really a story about “goblins.” It’s about fear, perception, and the split second when reality stops behaving the way we expect it to. In Part One, we step inside that farmhouse and live the night as they did: the lights in the sky, the barking dogs, the guns, and the single moment that turned unease into terror — the face at the window. Because sometimes, the real monster isn’t outside the house. It’s what the human mind creates when darkness refuses to explain itself. Listen to the end — the cliffhanger will pull you straight into Part Two. And remember: The dark doesn’t have to be empty… for it to be terrifying. 🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW If you’re enjoying the show, make sure you’re following The Devil’s Ledger and the entire Evio Creative lineup wherever you get your podcasts—The Devil Within, The Ides of April, Criminal Mischief, Taboo Treasures, and more—so you never miss a new episode. ⭐ RATE & REVIEW Ratings and reviews genuinely help independent shows grow.

    THE IDES OF APRIL PRESENTS: The Quiet Death of an Empire

    THE IDES OF APRIL Episode One: The End of the Romanovs — Power, Abdication, and Inevitability In this first episode, we trace how the fall of the Romanov dynasty began long before gunfire echoed in a basement. From battlefield catastrophe to political collapse, this is the story of how abdication ended authority—but not danger. CHAPTERS Chapter One — The Abdication The Russian Empire collapses under the weight of war, famine, and failed leadership. Nicholas II abdicates the throne in 1917, believing surrendering power will save his family and stabilize the nation. Instead, it seals his fate. Chapter Two — Five Children and a Dynasty Behind the crown stood a family: five children, a sickly heir, and a court defined by secrecy and ritual. Fabergé Easter eggs become symbols of continuity, illusion, and imperial fragility as the Romanovs slip from rulers to prisoners. Chapter Three — Why the Bolsheviks Could Not Let Him Live As civil war erupts, the Bolsheviks confront a brutal reality: Nicholas no longer rules—but he still represents. Alive, he remains a rallying point, a bargaining chip, and a threat. The decision is not vengeance—it is preemption. Abdication ends power. It does not end meaning. And revolutions cannot tolerate symbols that still breathe. 🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW Follow The Ides of April and the full Evio Creative lineup wherever you get your podcasts. ⭐ RATE & REVIEW Leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify—it helps more than you think. 📺 WATCH & SUBSCRIBE ON YOUTUBEWatch full episodes and exclusives from all Evio Creative shows. 👉 Subscribe to Evio Creative on YouTube and turn on notifications. 🌐 VISIT THE NETWORK Explore all shows and projects at eviocreative.com ✉ GET IN TOUCH Email tips, stories, or corrections to info@eviocreative.com 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

    The Devil’s Ledger — January 5, 2026 Happy New Year — and welcome back. We’re kicking off 2026 with a chilling slate across the Evio universe. We start with The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week — a winter nightmare from Japan about the Yuki-onna, the mysterious “snow woman” who appears during blizzards… and quietly breathes the warmth out of anyone who helps her. Then, on The Devil Within, we open a two-part investigation into the 1955 Kelly–Hopkinsville encounter — the farmhouse siege that helped shape modern alien mythology. Over on The Ides of April, we begin our deep dive into the fall of Tsar Nicholas II and the brutal end of the Romanov dynasty. History turns fast — and it doesn’t look back. The guys from Taboo Treasures are still shaking off the holidays — they’ll be back next week with something wild. This week on Criminal Mischief, we examine the disappearance of Anna Walshe — a mother of three whose New Year’s Day “work emergency” unraveled into something far darker. A true can’t-miss. And in This Week in Horror, we’re talking PRIMATE — the pet-turned-predator creature feature that feels like CUJO’s unhinged cousin. 🚨 New Show Drop — TODAY Our brand-new series FINDING ME with Josh Wolf officially launches today. Honest, vulnerable, funny, and deeply human — this is one you’ll want in your feed from episode one. Follow, rate, review, and share — and we’ll see you across the Evio universe.

    She Left the House... And Never Came Back: The Disappearance of Patricia Viola

    On a quiet winter afternoon in Bogota, New Jersey, Patricia “Patty” Viola stepped out of her home and vanished. No forced entry. No sign of struggle. Nothing left behind but silence — until years later, when the river returned part of her story. This isn’t a case about villains lurking in the shadows. It’s about the invisible weight people carry, the questions that haunt families, and the quiet breaking points we almost never see coming. Sometimes, the devil within isn’t outside the door. It’s inside us. In this episode, we revisit Patricia’s final known moments, the search that stretched on for years, the discovery that reopened old wounds, and the deeper truth hiding beneath the surface — grief, mental health, and the human need for answers that may never fully arrive.

About

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.
