The Devil Within

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.

Wings of Prophecy: Part One - The Watchers in the Dark

The Devil Within Wings of Prophecy — Part One: The Watchers in the Dark Something was watching Point Pleasant. Before the headlines. Before the legend. Before the bridge fell. In Part One of Wings of Prophecy, we begin a two-part investigation into one of the most chilling and enduring mysteries in American folklore — the wave of strange sightings that gripped a small West Virginia town in the thirteen months before tragedy struck. The story begins on a quiet November night in 1967, when four young people driving near an abandoned TNT plant encountered something impossible: a towering, winged figure with glowing red eyes that appeared to follow their car at highway speeds. What they reported would become the first of dozens of sightings. And the beginning of something far bigger than a local ghost story. As word spread, more witnesses came forward. A respected barber described strange lights — and the disappearance of his dog. Residents reported massive shapes flying over roads, perching on rooftops, and watching from the darkness beyond town. Law enforcement took statements. A journalist arrived. The story spread. And slowly, the community began to divide — believers and skeptics, fear and ridicule, curiosity and dread. But beneath the growing legend was something deeper: A town beginning to feel watched. Studied. Waited for. In this episode:     •    The first terrifying encounter near the TNT area     •    Deputy Halstead’s investigation and the growing number of eyewitness reports     •    The arrival of reporter Mary Hyre and the national attention that followed     •    Strange animal behavior, unexplained lights, and escalating fear     •    How the legend of the Mothman took hold inside a community under pressure Because sometimes the most powerful monsters aren’t just what people see. They’re what fear does to a town. And while residents debated whether the creature was real… something else was happening in Point Pleasant. Something no one could see. A microscopic flaw inside the Silver Bridge — slowly growing, quietly weakening the structure that held the town together. Thirteen months later, that bridge would collapse into the Ohio River in less than sixty seconds, killing 46 people. And the question that still haunts the town remains: Was the Mothman a warning… Or was it simply waiting? 🎧 Follow The Devil Within so you don’t miss Part Two of Wings of Prophecy. ⭐ If this episode stayed with you, leave a review — it helps more people discover the show. 📲 Share this episode with someone who loves stories where folklore, fear, and reality collide. 📺 WATCH & SUBSCRIBE ON YOUTUBE You can now watch full video episodes, clips, and exclusives from all Evio Creative shows on YouTube. 👉 Subscribe to Evio Creative on YouTube and turn on notifications so you don’t miss new drops across the network. 📲 FOLLOW ON SOCIAL Follow for updates, visuals, and behind-the-scenes content: • @thedevilwithinpod • @idesofaprilpod • @eviocreative • @findingmewithjoshwolf (Instagram, TikTok & Facebook) And remember: Sometimes the most unsettling mysteries aren’t the ones we see coming… they’re the ones that unfold quietly, right in front of us. 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

EVIO PRESENTS: Son of the Blade - Part One

The Ides of April — Son of the Blade The world didn’t change slowly. It changed in a theater… during a celebration… with a single blade. In Episode One of The Ides of April, we begin the story of Alexander the Great at the moment everything became possible — and everything became dangerous. When Philip II of Macedon, the most powerful ruler in Greece, is assassinated in front of a crowd, the future of the Greek world hangs in the balance. His heir is just twenty years old. Young. Unproven. Surrounded by rivals. What happens next is not hesitation. It’s speed. It’s violence. And it’s the beginning of one of the most extraordinary rises in history. In this episode, we follow Alexander as he secures his throne, eliminates threats inside his own family, crushes rebellion in Greece, and sends a message that will echo across the ancient world: the son is more dangerous than the father. From the destruction of Thebes to the crossing into Asia, the campaign moves with breathtaking momentum. Along the way, Alexander begins shaping something as important as his army — his legend. Because from the very beginning, this was never just a war. It was a performance of destiny. By his mid-twenties, Alexander will defeat the Persian Empire, march into Egypt, and push his army toward India. His soldiers will begin to call him favored by the gods. And he will begin to believe it. But as the poet Pindar warned: Creatures of a day. What is a man? Glory burns bright. And it never burns forever. In this episode:     •    The assassination that changed the ancient world     •    The brutal consolidation of power inside Macedon     •    The destruction of Thebes — and the warning it sent to Greece     •    Alexander’s first victories against Persia     •    The moment a young king begins to step into myth Why this story matters Alexander’s rise wasn’t inevitable. It was built on speed, ruthlessness, and a dangerous pattern: Risk. Danger. Victory. Every gamble worked. And when the world starts rewarding every risk… The most dangerous thing a leader can believe is that he cannot fail. Coming next Victory begins to change Alexander — his court, his army, and his sense of who he really is. He will adopt the customs of kings treated like gods. He will demand loyalty that feels like worship. And before long, the distance between Alexander and the men who once called him companion will grow so wide… That one of them will die by his hand. 💼 SPONSORS Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of February 22nd.

The Devil’s Ledger Week of February 22 The flame is out. The mountains fall quiet. This week on The Devil’s Ledger, we say farewell to the Winter Olympics — and to the Italian Alps, whose beauty, history, and lingering shadows reminded us that even the most breathtaking places tend to keep a few secrets. But while the games end, the stories across the network are just getting started. The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week Nature delivered the reminder. In March of 1888, a storm known as The White Hurricane buried the Northeast under up to 50 inches of snow, with drifts rising to the height of buildings. Communication collapsed. Cities were cut off. More than 400 people died — many only steps from safety. The storm didn’t just paralyze the region. It changed it. In response, New York began moving critical infrastructure underground — a decision that eventually led to the creation of the subway system. Sometimes the scariest stories aren’t about monsters. They’re about how quickly control disappears. On The Devil Within By listener request, we begin a two-part series on one of America’s most enduring and unsettling legends: The Mothman West Virginia. The 1960s. Glowing red eyes. Massive wings. Dozens of witnesses. And a chilling pattern — sightings that seem to appear before tragedy. Folklore? Mass hysteria? Something unknown? Or a warning. On The Ides of April A new historical arc begins: Alexander the Great A young king who conquered the known world before the age of thirty — and may have outrun the limits of power itself. Empire. Ambition. Destiny. And the question history always asks: What happens when there’s nothing left to conquer? On Taboo Treasures The guys return with a sharp and satirical look at one of humanity’s stranger traditions: The most dangerous jobs we’ve ever created. From ancient hazards to modern risks, it’s a darkly funny exploration of the ways people have risked their lives… for a paycheck. On Criminal Mischief Carolyn Ossorio brings updates on several major cases currently dominating the news, including developments involving Nancy Guthrie, Brendan Banfield, and other ongoing investigations. Because in true crime, the story rarely ends when the headlines move on. On Finding Me with Josh Wolf Josh continues his daily journey into the uncomfortable territory most of us try to avoid: Accountability. Honesty. And the work of figuring out what actually needs attention. Personal. Raw. Necessary. This Week in Horror For Gen X horror fans, this one feels personal. The seventh installment of the Scream franchise arrives in theaters. When a new Ghostface targets Sidney’s daughter, she’s forced to confront her past — and end the cycle of violence once and for all. Some franchises fade. Others grow up with us. And somehow… Ghostface is still calling. Closing Thought As this episode releases, a major winter storm is moving toward the Northeast. A reminder — like the storms of the past — that control is often temporary. If you’re in its path: Slow down. Stay warm. Check on each other. We’re thinking of you. Until next week… Stay curious. Stay careful. And stay safe out there. 💼 SPONSORS 🛋️ RULA Online therapy that takes your insurance.

Frozen Evidence

The Devil Within Frozen Evidence: The Duncan MacPherson Case In August of 1989, Duncan MacPherson — a former first-round NHL draft pick from Canada — stepped onto the Stubai Glacier in the Austrian Alps. He rented a snowboard. He rode the lifts. And then he vanished. His car remained in the resort parking lot. His belongings were untouched. Search teams scoured the glacier and surrounding terrain, assuming the kind of tragedy the mountains know too well — a fall, a crevasse, an accident swallowed by ice. Nothing was found. For fourteen years, the glacier kept its silence. Then, in the summer of 2003, melting ice revealed human remains. The mountain had given Duncan back. But what emerged raised more questions than answers.  This episode of The Devil Within explores the unsettling details surrounding Duncan MacPherson’s disappearance and recovery, including:     •    His final known movements at a managed glacier resort — not remote wilderness     •    The condition of his recovered snowboard, which showed crushing damage that some analysts believe could be consistent with heavy machinery     •    Injuries that did not clearly align with a simple fall     •    Questions about nighttime snowcat operations on the glacier     •    And the most troubling possibility: that elements of his rental equipment may have been returned through resort systems long before his body emerged No definitive conclusion has ever been reached. But the case raises a disturbing question: What if Duncan’s tragedy began as an accident… and was complicated by human systems that chose silence over scrutiny? Glaciers preserve what they take. But time can erode records, memories, and accountability. Fourteen years later, the ice returned a body. The truth may still be buried. 🎧 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.

The Devil in the Painting

The Devil in the Painting In the Alps, faith and fear have always lived close together. In this episode of The Devil Within, we travel to a quiet sanctuary in northern Italy — a place where generations have climbed in search of healing, protection, and answers when suffering felt too heavy to carry alone. In 1731, a woman from the surrounding region was brought to the hilltop church at Madonna di Pinè after her behavior began to change in ways her family could not understand. Sudden outbursts. Withdrawal. A voice that no longer sounded like her own. In a world without modern psychological language, her condition was understood the only way people knew how: Something had taken hold of her. What followed was a solemn ritual of exorcism — not spectacle, but prayer, command, and communal fear. Witnesses later described a moment during the rite when something dark and serpentine seemed to leave her body. Whether miracle, misinterpretation, or a psychological turning point shaped by belief, the event left a permanent mark. A small ex-voto painting inside the sanctuary still depicts the moment: a priest at prayer, a woman in distress, and a shadowed form emerging as if suffering itself had been given a shape. But this episode goes beyond the question of what happened. Because possession stories, across cultures and centuries, often reveal something deeper — a human need to separate pain from identity. To believe that darkness is something on us, not something we are. To see suffering as something that can be confronted… and expelled. In the harsh Alpine world — where avalanches, illness, and long winters reminded communities how little they controlled — that kind of narrative wasn’t superstition. It was survival. As the Winter Olympics conclude and the crowds leave the mountains behind, this episode explores the older stories that still live there — stories of fear, faith, and the enduring hope that even the most invisible suffering can loosen its grip. Because sometimes the most powerful miracle isn’t the disappearance of the unknown. It’s the belief that healing is possible. 🎧 Call to Action If this story stayed with you: ⭐ Follow and subscribe so you never miss an episode 📝 Leave a rating or review — it helps others discover the show 🔁 SHARE THE SHOW If you know someone who loves true crime, history, horror, or stories that refuse to let go — share the episode.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of February 16th.

The Devil’s Ledger – Week of February 16 Welcome back to The Devil’s Ledger — your weekly guide to everything happening across the Evio Creative universe.  As we head into the second week of the Winter Games, we’re sending a big congratulations to all of our U.S. Olympians still competing — and if you suddenly find yourself understanding the strategy behind curling, you’re not alone.  This week’s edition begins, as always, with The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week — a chilling look at the 1959 Dyatlov Pass Incident, where nine experienced hikers fled their tent barefoot into subzero temperatures after encountering what investigators later described only as a “compelling natural force.” Some believe the group may have encountered something else entirely — a mysterious humanoid figure long rumored in the region’s winter forests.  On The Devil Within We travel to a remote stone sanctuary in northern Italy to examine a centuries-old Ex-Voto painting — a devotional image created to commemorate a miracle. The artwork depicts the exact moment an exorcism was believed to succeed, including an artist’s rendering of a dark, serpentine figure leaving a woman’s body. Faith, psychology, or something more?  On The Ides of April We conclude our two-part series on the assassination of Philip of Macedon — a political killing that may have changed the course of human history. His death didn’t stop expansion. It removed the one man who might have restrained his son, unleashing Alexander the Great on the known world.  On Taboo Treasures Bruce and Jef return with a fun and surprising deep dive into the strange origins and evolution of Valentine’s Day — from ancient rituals to modern traditions.  On Criminal Mischief Carolyn Ossorio brings the latest updates in the ongoing search for Nancy Guthrie, breaking down new clues, updated timelines, and expert analysis from law enforcement professionals.  And every day… You can check in with Josh Wolf on Finding Me with Josh Wolf — a daily podcast journal documenting his honest journey toward becoming the best version of himself.  This Week in Horror Diabolic, a 2026 Australian supernatural horror film directed by Daniel J. Phillips, opened in limited theaters on February 13 and begins streaming February 20. The story follows a woman who returns to a restrictive religious community to address trauma-induced blackouts — only to encounter a vengeful witch with unfinished business.  📲 FOLLOW ON SOCIAL Follow for updates, visuals, and behind-the-scenes content: • @thedevilwithinpod • @idesofaprilpod • @eviocreative • @findingmewithjoshwolf (Instagram, TikTok & Facebook) 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

When Winter Wears a Face

🎙️ The Devil Within When Winter Wears a Face Winter can feel empty — silent landscapes, long nights, and the sense that the world has gone still. But in the mountain villages of the Alps and northern Italy, winter was never seen as empty. It was seen as dangerous. In this episode of The Devil Within, we explore three chilling winter traditions born from isolation, fear, and the psychological weight of the dark season. 🐐 The Schnabelgeiss — Switzerland Masked figures known as the “beaked goats” storm through villages wearing grotesque costumes and ringing bells. The noise and spectacle aren’t for entertainment — they’re meant to drive away illness, misfortune, and the lingering spirits of winter. 🌊 The Anguane — Northern Italy Beautiful but dangerous water spirits said to lure travelers off safe paths and toward icy streams and hidden drops. Their legend reflects a harsh truth: in winter, the mountains deceive, and one wrong step can be fatal. 🔥 Giubiana — Burning the Winter Witch In Lombardy and Piedmont, communities build and burn a straw effigy representing hunger, illness, and hardship. The ritual marks a psychological turning point — the moment when people believe the worst of winter is finally behind them. These traditions didn’t change the season. But they gave fear a face — and when fear has a face, it can be chased, confronted, and burned away. 🎧 Call to Action ⭐ Follow and subscribe to The Devil Within 📝 Leave a rating or review — it helps others discover the show 📲 Share this episode with someone who loves folklore and the darker side of history 🌲 And join us next time as we investigate a real and haunting mystery in the mountains — the death of Canadian hockey player Duncan MacPherson. 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

The Battle No One Sees

⛪ The Devil Within — Episode 3: The Battle No One Sees The Winter Olympics celebrate control — bodies trained to precision, minds sharpened to the edge of physics, every movement calculated against gravity and risk. But in the shadow of those same Alpine peaks, another kind of battle has been unfolding for centuries. One without medals. Without spectators. Without a finish line. This week, The Devil Within turns inward. We travel to northern Italy, near the slopes and valleys that have long shaped both faith and folklore, to the Sanctuary of Monte Berico overlooking Vicenza. A place of prayer for generations — and, in recent years, the setting of a reported exorcism that left witnesses shaken and clergy emotionally drained. This episode explores a case that moved quietly through layers of scrutiny before a formal rite was performed. Those close to the woman at the center of the story described personality changes, emotional volatility, and distress that resisted conventional treatment. What followed inside the stone walls of the sanctuary was not spectacle, but hours of prayer, repetition, exhaustion, and uncertainty. We examine:     •    How the modern Catholic Church approaches exorcism with caution and psychological screening     •    Why Alpine communities often interpret suffering through both spiritual and folkloric lenses     •    The emotional strain on those present during prolonged religious rites     •    The thin, uneasy line between spiritual belief and mental health realities     •    What possession stories may reveal about the fragility of identity and the human need for meaning in moments of internal chaos Rather than focusing on dramatic portrayals, this episode sits with the quieter, more unsettling questions. What does it feel like when a person no longer feels at home in their own mind? Why do cultures across time describe that experience as something foreign taking hold? And how do faith, ritual, and psychology all attempt — in their own ways — to bring someone back to themselves? In a region where the mountains constantly remind people that control is never absolute, it may not be surprising that some believe struggle can come from within just as easily as from storm or avalanche. The Alps remain vast. The sanctuary remains still. And somewhere between belief and biology lies a story that resists easy answers. 🎧 Listen Now If this episode stayed with you: ⭐ Follow The Devil Within so you never miss a story 📝 Leave a rating or review — it helps others find the show 📲 Share this episode with someone who’s fascinated by the intersection of faith, psychology, and the unexplained 🌙 And join us next time as we step deeper into the shadows where history, belief, and fear meet. 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

EVIO Presents: The King from the Edge of Greece

🎙️ The Ides of April — Two-Part Series Philip of Macedon: The Father Behind the Empire Before the legend of Alexander the Great, there was the man who made his rise possible. In this two-part series of The Ides of April, we travel to the rugged northern kingdom of Macedonia to explore the life, ambition, and violent death of Philip II of Macedon — the ruler who transformed a dismissed frontier state into the dominant power of the Greek world. Part One — The King from the Edge of Greece Long before Macedonia commanded armies and alliances, it was considered backward by the great city-states of southern Greece. This episode traces:     •    The harsh frontier culture that shaped Philip’s early life     •    His time as a political hostage in Thebes — where he studied the future of warfare     •    The military revolution that created the Macedonian war machine     •    The rise of Philip’s power across Greece     •    The complex royal family dynamics that shaped succession     •    The early signs of greatness in his young son — including the famous taming of Bucephalus By the time Philip stands at the height of his power, Greece is unified under his leadership and a massive invasion of Persia is within reach. But success has created enemies — both abroad and within his own court. 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of February 9th

🎙️ The Devil’s Ledger — Week of February 9 Show Notes Welcome back to The Devil’s Ledger, your weekly guide to everything happening across the Evio Creative Network. This week, we open with a show of support for Team USA as they compete on the world stage at the 2026 Winter Olympics — a reminder of what preparation, discipline, and pressure can produce at the highest level. The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week The Storm That Buried Iran In February 1972, a blizzard dropped as much as 26 feet of snow across parts of Iran — the deadliest winter storm in recorded history. Entire villages disappeared. More than 4,000 people died. Rescue teams arrived to find a landscape flattened into silence — towns erased beneath smooth fields of snow. Survivors later described shapes moving in the whiteout, voices outside buried homes, and dark figures appearing at the edges of the storm. Science offers explanations — hypothermia, oxygen deprivation, sensory distortion. But knowing the science doesn’t make it less terrifying. Because when a storm buries entire communities and leaves nothing behind but silence… it begins to feel less like weather. And more like something that came looking for the living. On The Devil Within This week’s episode takes us to the historic sanctuary at Monte Berico, where an alleged exorcism took place in 2010. What makes this case especially unsettling isn’t folklore or legend — it’s the documentation. Witnesses. Church involvement. Medical oversight. And a sequence of events that remains difficult to explain. Atmospheric, grounded, and deeply unsettling, this is a story that lives in the uneasy space between faith and the unknown. On The Ides of April We begin a two-part series on the assassination of Philip II of Macedon — and what may be one of history’s greatest strategic miscalculations. The conspirators believed they were ending a growing threat to the Greek world. Instead, they cleared the path for a twenty-year-old successor: Alexander the Great. History has a word for that outcome. Oops. On Criminal Mischief At the moment, Carolyn is reportedly celebrating somewhere in the Pacific Northwest after the Seattle Seahawksdelivered a decisive victory over the New England Patriots. We expect normal programming to resume once the celebration — and possibly the parade — concludes. Daily: Finding Me with Josh Wolf Josh Wolf continues his daily check-ins, blending humor, vulnerability, and honest self-reflection that has quickly become part of listeners’ everyday routines. Real. Relatable. And absolutely can’t miss. This Week in Horror In honor of its record-breaking awards recognition, this week’s pick is the vampire thriller Sinners, directed by Ryan Coogler and starring Michael B. Jordan. Now streaming on HBO Max, it delivers atmosphere, intensity, and enough supernatural dread to make your head spin. 🎧 Call to Action ⭐ Subscribe so you never miss a show 📲 Share The Devil’s Ledger with someone who loves great storytelling 📝 Rate and review — it helps more listeners find the Evio Creative Network Here’s to a great, productive week — full of Olympic moments and unforgettable stories. 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

The Thing That Screams From The Trees

🐐 The Devil Within — The Legend of the Baladisc High in the mountains, where the air thins and the world feels older than memory, some legends refuse to die. This week on The Devil Within, we descend into one of the strangest and most unsettling alpine folktales you’ve probably never heard of: the Baladisc. Described in scattered regional accounts as something not quite human and not quite animal, the Baladisc is said to haunt remote mountain passes and dense, shadowed forests. Witnesses across generations have claimed to see a dark, horned figure moving between the trees at dusk — too tall, too still, and far too aware of the people who stumble into its territory. Some say it watches from ridgelines during snowstorms. Others claim it follows lone travelers just out of sight, its presence marked only by the feeling of being hunted… and the sudden silence of the forest around them. In this episode, we explore:     •    The earliest known references to the Baladisc in mountain folklore     •    Reports from shepherds and woodcutters who believed they encountered it     •    Why isolated alpine communities often describe similar horned or hybrid beings     •    The psychological effects of high-altitude isolation and winter darkness     •    Whether the Baladisc is a supernatural entity… or something born from fear, landscape, and survival As always, the line between legend and lived experience is razor-thin. These stories come from people who knew the mountains well — people who understood storms, predators, and the dangers of the wild. And yet, what they described didn’t behave like any known animal. The Baladisc may be folklore. It may be metaphor. Or it may be something older than either — a reminder that the wilderness has never belonged entirely to us. Turn down the lights, listen closely, and decide for yourself what’s really moving between the trees. 🎧 New episodes of The Devil Within drop weekly.

The Thing That Watches From the Snowline

The Devil Within Tatzelwurm —The Thing That Watches From the Snowline High above the tree line, where oxygen thins and old superstitions thicken, something has been slithering through European folklore for centuries. This week on The Devil Within, we journey into the jagged spine of the Alps — a place of avalanches, isolation… and sightings of a creature that by all rights should not exist. It has the body of a serpent. The face of a cat. The temper of something ancient and territorial. They call it The Tatzelwurm. 🐍 Episode Overview Long before modern mountaineering turned the Alps into a playground for climbers and skiers, shepherds and hunters told darker stories — of livestock found mutilated, of travelers collapsing after encounters with a “poison-breathing” beast, and of clawed tracks appearing in fresh snow where no animal should be. In this episode, we explore: The earliest documented Tatzelwurm sightings in the 18th and 19th centuries Why so many encounters happen at high elevations near remote caves Theories ranging from misidentified wildlife… to a surviving Ice Age predator The strange pattern of witnesses becoming violently ill after close encounters The unsettling consistency in descriptions across centuries and countries Is the Tatzelwurm just folklore born from altitude sickness and fear? Or is it one more example of something real hiding in the blind spots of modern science? 🏔️ Why This Story Still Matters With global attention turning back to the Alps for the upcoming 2026 Winter Olympics, millions will soon be watching — and traveling into — these very mountains. But while cameras focus on ski slopes and stadiums, vast stretches of alpine wilderness remain untouched… and largely unexplored. Legends don’t survive for centuries without a reason. And in the Alps, the line between myth and memory has always been dangerously thin. 🧭 Themes in This Episode Mountain isolation and the psychology of fear Cryptids rooted in regional history, not modern invention How folklore can preserve eyewitness accounts long before science catches up The uneasy relationship between wilderness and human certainty 🎧 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. 📺 WATCH & SUBSCRIBE ON YOUTUBE You can now watch full video episodes, clips, and exclusives from all Evio Creative shows on YouTube. 👉 Subscribe to Evio Creative on YouTube and turn on notifications so you don’t miss new drops across the network. 📲 FOLLOW ON SOCIAL Follow for updates, visuals, and behind-the-scenes content: • @thedevilwithinpod • @idesofaprilpod • @eviocreative • @findingmewithjoshwolf (Instagram, TikTok & Facebook) 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

The Devil's Ledger

🎙️ The Devil’s Ledger — Week of February 2 A weekly dispatch from the shadows of history, mystery, and the unexplained across the Evio Creative Network. Happy Groundhog’s Day 🐾❄️ Here’s hoping that furry little meteorologist gives us the forecast we want — winter loosening its grip and spring on the horizon. Until then, we’ve got plenty of chills to keep you company. 👻 The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week This week’s nightmare comes from the frozen forests near Houska Castle — a place long rumored to be built over a gateway to hell. Last year, we explored the infamous pit beneath the castle chapel. But what we didn’t realize then is that winter brings its own layer of terror. Local legends describe travelers vanishing in snowstorms after following a mysterious woman in white who walks effortlessly through deep snow… leaving no footprints. One 19th-century woodcutter reportedly followed her into the forest, believing she was lost. When he finally saw her face, he described it as frozen and lifeless — like something long dead preserved in ice. He later died from exposure, and villagers insisted he wasn’t lost… he was lured. Snow erases tracks. It swallows sound. And according to local folklore, winter around Houska Castle isn’t peaceful. It’s hunting season. 🏔 On The Devil Within We remain high in the Alps for two eerie legends of creatures said to stalk remote passes and dense forests. These are tales born from isolation, blizzards, and the unsettling feeling of being watched in a place where help is miles away. The Alps are breathtaking. They are also ancient… and not everything up there may be accounted for. 🕯 On The Ides of April We conclude our series on the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. with a focus on James Earl Ray. His guilty plea was meant to bring closure, but instead it deepened suspicions and left lingering questions that still echo decades later. A sobering, necessary close to one of the most painful moments in American history. 🪓 On Criminal Mischief We travel back to 1893 in Fall River, where Andrew Borden and Abby Borden were brutally murdered with a hatchet. The arrest of Lizzie Borden shocked the nation and launched one of America’s most infamous trials. More than 130 years later, the case remains officially unsolved. This week, an expert walks us through the investigation and courtroom drama that still fascinates true crime fans today. 🎤 Daily: Finding Me with Josh Wolf Comedian Josh Wolf continues his daily check-ins — honest, funny reflections on growth, family, and becoming the best version of himself. 🎬 This Week in Horror Grizzly Night Based on real events from 1967, the film recounts two grizzly bear attacks that occurred nine miles apart in Glacier National Park — a chilling reminder that sometimes the scariest stories don’t need the supernatural. Whether the groundhog sees his shadow or not, we hope warmer days are coming. Until then, dive into the mysteries, history, and horrors waiting for you across the Evio Creative Network 🎧 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.

The Winter Olympics: The Track That Ate Him!

The Track That Ate Him Vancouver 2010 → Haunted Host Cities → Italy Adjacency In 2010, the Winter Olympics arrived in Vancouver polished to a mirror shine — perfect lighting, perfect branding, perfect spectacle. And then, before the Opening Ceremony even began… the world watched a young man die. Episode Two is where the story becomes modern horror: Vancouver 2010, Whistler Sliding Centre, one luge run at nearly unthinkable speed — and one moment that turned Olympic infrastructure into a permanent ghost. But this episode isn’t only about what happened on camera.It’s about what happens to places after tragedy — how host cities become haunted, how tracks become shrines, how mountains remember what humans try to forget. And finally, we widen the lens toward Italy: the quieter, untelevised side of the Olympic dream — where ambition can still end behind closed doors, long before the world is watching. Because winter doesn’t care about the Olympics. Winter only cares what it can take. In this episode: • Vancouver 2010: the day the Olympics lost its innocence in real time • Why “fixes” made after tragedy carry a darker implication: if it could change after… why not before? • How modern media turns death into replay — and replay into haunting • The hidden psychology of haunted host cities • The unsettling adjacency truth: not all Olympic tragedies happen on television Listener warning: This episode contains discussions of accidental death during Olympic training and death-related themes.

The Winter Olympics: Games of Ice

The Games of Ice Innsbruck 1964 → Albertville 1992 The Winter Olympics are marketed as triumph — humanity’s most elegant rebellion against cold, gravity, and fear. But long before the medals… before the fireworks… before the world even begins clapping — winter is already collecting its price. In Episode One of this two-part Devil Within series, we descend into the hidden history of Olympic tragedy — starting with Innsbruck, 1964, where two athletes died before the Opening Ceremony even began, and moving forward to Albertville, 1992, where modernity itself became the killer: a collision not with a mountain… but with the machinery designed to tame it. This episode isn’t about gore. It isn’t even about blame. It’s about the human condition — what happens when ambition meets physics, when spectacle meets reality, and when a celebration quietly becomes a grave. Because the devil within isn’t always evil.Sometimes… it’s certainty. In this episode: • Why winter sports are the purest form of “beautiful danger” • Innsbruck 1964: the Games begin in tragedy before they begin in ceremony • How grief gets packaged, polished, and pushed aside so the machine can keep moving • Albertville 1992: the terrifying moment the Olympics becomes a system — and systems fail • The quiet truth Olympic branding never says out loud: winter is not scenery Listener warning: This episode contains discussions of accidental death during Olympic training and preparation.

The Ides of April Presents: April's Shadow - The Assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr.

April's Shadow : “The Balcony in Memphis” In Episode One of this two-part Ides of April event series, we step into Memphis, 1968—not as a footnote in civil rights history, but as a pressure cooker where the fight for equality evolves into something even more threatening to power: economic justice. Martin Luther King Jr. comes to Memphis to support the sanitation workers’ strike, sparked by the horrific deaths of Echol Cole and Robert Walker, and fueled by a single, uncompromising demand—human dignity—carried through the streets on signs that read: I AM A MAN. As King’s mission expands from civil rights leader into a broader advocate for labor and class justice, the atmosphere darkens and the stakes intensify. Memphis becomes a mirror reflecting America’s deepest fear: that justice may require redistribution—not just of rights, but of power. The episode moves into the prophetic gravity of King’s final night. At Mason Temple, he delivers the iconic “Mountaintop” speech—part sermon, part warning—before returning to the Lorraine Motel. The next day, a moment of ordinary life becomes a national rupture: 6:01 PM on the balcony outside Room 306. And in the hour after his death, America ignites—grief spilling into unrest and reckoning—while the machinery of investigation begins turning, hunting for a suspect as the country struggles to make meaning out of the impossible. In this episode     •    Why Memphis became the inevitable battleground in 1968     •    The sanitation strike, labor, and the radical power of I AM A MAN     •    King’s evolution into a leader focused on class justice     •    The “Mountaintop” speech and the calm before catastrophe     •    The assassination, the aftermath, and the beginning of the manhunt 🎧 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.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of January 26th

THE DEVIL’S LEDGER Week of January 26 — Blizzard Stories, History’s Turning Points, and Hard Truths This week on The Devil’s Ledger, winter takes center stage — both outside our windows and inside the stories we’re telling. We open by acknowledging the massive snowstorm that’s crippled much of the country, especially the Northeast, and how winter has a way of shrinking the world and amplifying the dark. ❄️ The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week comes straight out of a blizzard — a terrifying story that proves when visibility drops and isolation rises, the line between survival and disappearance gets dangerously thin. 🏔️ Over on The Devil Within, in honor of the upcoming Winter Olympics, we launch a two-part series exploring the darker side of the Winter Games — the training deaths, the tragedies tied to host cities, and the sobering truth that winter doesn’t care about spectacle, branding, or medals. 🕊️ On The Ides of April, we begin the long-awaited two-part series covering the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Originally planned for release during the national holiday, the episode was delayed after the flu took out Branden’s voice — but the story arrives with the weight and respect it deserves. This series examines the official narrative and the way one moment in Memphis reshaped a nation. ⚖️ Criminal Mischief brings a major update to Episode 103 — the “Bizarre Love Triangle” Virginia Au Pair case. The trial of Brendan Banfield is underway, and explosive testimony from a former lover is offering a chilling new perspective on the double homicide. 🎙️ On Finding Me with Josh Wolf, Josh takes a deeply personal turn, confronting his five biggest insecurities — one per day, publicly and honestly. It’s still funny (because it’s Josh), but it’s also hitting deeper as he works to become the best version of himself. 🎬 This Week in Horror features a new entry from master filmmaker Sam Raimi. Send Help blends action, suspense, and horror into a tense story about power, reversal, and how extreme situations can expose who we really are — especially in the workplace. Closing Thought Winter reminds us how little control we truly have. Storms erase roads, silence cities, and force us to sit with what’s real. Maybe that’s why these stories land harder this time of year — because when the world goes quiet, we hear everything else more clearly.

The Monster That Wasn't! The Flatwoods Monster, Part Two

The Flatwoods Monster (Part Two): The Monster That Wasn’t When daylight arrives… the legend doesn’t disappear. It gets stranger. Morning light insists on clarity. It wants the world restored to order. It wants last night’s fear to look small, even silly, in the daylight. But in Flatwoods, morning didn’t repair the night. It amplified it. In Part Two, we walk back up that hill — this time with investigators, law enforcement, soldiers, reporters, and skeptics — all determined to quiet the story and restore calm.  Flatwoods Monster And what they find is not a clean debunking… but a more unsettling truth: sometimes the scariest part of the story isn’t a monster in the woods. It’s the human mind trying to survive uncertainty. This episode dives deep into the official investigation, the physical symptoms, the strange odor, the meteor explanation… and the chilling possibility that what the witnesses saw was something both ordinary and terrifying — an illusion forged by fog, fear, adrenaline… and biology. In this episode:     •    The next-day investigation: what authorities did (and didn’t) find     •    Why witnesses reported nausea, dizziness, and burning throats     •    The “meteor” explanation — and why it didn’t erase the fear     •    The barn owl theory: how an animal can become a nightmare under the right conditions     •    The deeper horror: not lying… but misinterpretation that grows teeth Content note: This episode includes discussion of fear psychology, misperception, physical illness symptoms, and investigative theories.

It Fell From The Sky! The Flatwoods Monster, Part One

The Flatwoods Monster (Part One) A meteor. A hill. A flashlight beam… and something that should not have been there. There are nights when darkness behaves — predictable, familiar, almost gentle. And then there are nights when it feels purposeful. A night that seems aware of the people beneath it… and hungry to test the limits of what they believe is possible. On September 12, 1952, in Braxton County, West Virginia, witnesses reported a blazing light streaking across the sky — red, incandescent, like a wound in the heavens. What followed became one of the most enduring creature legends in American folklore: The Flatwoods Monster.  Flatwoods Monster In Part One, we return to the very beginning — the original eyewitness account, the climb up the hill, the metallic air, the fog, and the moment a group of locals became absolutely certain they were standing in the presence of something not from Earth.  Flatwoods Monster But this isn’t really a story about aliens. It’s a story about people — about what the mind does when the world refuses to explain itself, and how fear can transform shadows into certainty. In this episode:     •    The meteor-like streak that sparked a legend     •    The group who climbed the hill searching for answers     •    The reported metallic odor, strange air, and mounting unease     •    The first description of the “monster”: towering shape, glowing eyes, hissing breath     •    The “Devil Within” theme: how perception becomes destiny Content note: This episode includes descriptions of panic reactions, illness symptoms, and fear responses.

The Devil's Ledger - Week of January 19th

THE DEVIL’S LEDGER — Week of January 19th, 2026 Winter dread. Strange lights. Real monsters. And the fog rolling back in. Welcome back to The Devil’s Ledger — the weekly dispatch from the edge of the week… where the stories don’t end so much as they linger. And in the heart of winter, when everything goes quiet, the quiet starts to feel like it’s thinking. This week’s episode takes us from haunted Massachusetts stonework to middle America’s strangest alleged UFO encounter — plus a brutal true crime deep dive, a new show format from Josh Wolf, and a return to one of horror’s most iconic nightmares. THE CREEPIEST THING I HEARD THIS WEEK The Hoosac Tunnel “Wailing Wind” Deaths (1850s–1860s) In the Berkshires, the Hoosac Tunnel was supposed to be progress — but winter construction turned it into a nightmare. During a brutal stretch, dozens of workers died underground. Survivors later described hearing screams carried on the wind, and even stranger: lantern lights moving deep within sealed shafts where no one could possibly be. A mass grave with train tracks… still echoing its debt. ON THE DEVIL WITHIN The Flatwoods Monster We’re back in middle America for one of the most infamous alleged UFO encounters in U.S. folklore. In 1952, a fiery streak crosses the sky over Braxton County, West Virginia. A group climbs a hill searching for a crash… and claims to encounter something towering, hissing, metallic, and absolutely not human. But as the story spreads, the real question becomes the Devil Within question: what happens when fear and perception collide in the dark — and certainty becomes legend? ON THE IDES OF APRIL The Ides of April has the week off — but returns next week with a brand-new two-part series. ON CRIMINAL MISCHIEF This week on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn covers the kidnapping, torture, and murder of DEA agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena Salazar, carried out at the behest of the Guadalajara Cartel in the mid-1980s. What cartel leaders didn’t expect was a years-long response that became one of the DEA’s largest murder investigations ever — a relentless hunt stretching across borders and decades. Carolyn interviews a retired DEA agent who witnessed the “war on drugs” up close for more than 30 years. ON FINDING ME WITH JOSH WOLF Josh introduces a new format: Theme Weeks. Every Monday a theme is announced — and every episode that week focuses on it. This week’s theme is HEALTH, and Josh kicks it off with the first installment of a terrifying (and often darkly funny) health journey he and his wife endured after battling an almost invisible enemy: mold — in their home and their bodies. The lesson that lands hardest: the mirror is NOT your doctor. THIS WEEK IN HORROR The fog rolls back in with Return to Silent Hill — the third installment in the franchise. James receives a mysterious letter that leads him back to Silent Hill, hoping to find the woman he loves… only to discover the town reshaped by something malevolent, filled with terrifying figures that force him to question reality itself. ✅ FOLLOW / RATE / EXPLORE (CTAs) 🎧 Follow across the network + listen to every show in the Evio Creative Universe ⭐️ Leave ratings + reviews (it genuinely helps) 📲 Share this episode with the friend who “doesn’t get scared” 📩 Send stories, tips, and theories: info@eviocreative.com 🌐 Visit: eviocreative.com Learn more about your ad choices.

The Wrong Road - Part Two: The Trailer

THE DEVIL WITHIN — The Wrong Road (Part Two) Months after the Mercury Montego was discovered abandoned in the snow, searchers find something deeper in the forest: A U.S. Forest Service trailer. Inside is everything that could have saved them—bunks, blankets, matches, propane… and enough food to keep multiple men alive for weeks. And in the back room—wrapped carefully in sheets—are the remains of Ted Weiher. He didn’t die quickly. He likely survived for weeks. The horror of this story isn’t supernatural. It isn’t even mysterious. It’s unbearably human. Part Two examines the theories, the folklore, and why people need this to be a conspiracy—because the truth is harder to accept: that confusion, fear, and rigid obedience to “rules” can trap a person even when salvation is right in front of them. This is not a whodunit. It’s a warning. 🎧 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.

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.

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. See you this week across the Evio universe. 🎧 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.

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 - Week of January 5th.

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. This is not sensational. It’s human — and that may be the hardest part. ❗ If you or someone you love is struggling Please reach out. In the U.S., dial or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
