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 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 Caracas Seminary Possession - Part Two
The Devil Within — The Caracas Seminary Possession: Part Two
In the shadow of the Andes, a shuttered seminary holds more than dust and memories.
Whispers in the chapel. A vanished priest. A locked door that was never truly locked.
In Part Two of The Caracas Seminary Possession, the line between ritual and reckoning blurs. From a midnight Mass that leaves nine witnesses changed forever, to the disturbing discovery beneath the chapel’s foundation, this chapter pulls us deeper into a mystery the Church would rather forget.
The question isn’t what happened inside San Miguel Seminary—
It’s what might still be happening.

The Devil Within — The Caracas Seminary Possession: Part One
A crumbling seminary in Caracas.
Nine witnesses who swore they saw the impossible.

In Part One of The Caracas Seminary Possession, we open the locked doors of San Miguel for the first time in decades. Through survivor testimony, long-sealed diocesan files, and forgotten police reports, we follow the trail from a single unexplained incident to a full-scale exorcism that spiraled out of control.
Some say the evil was cast out.
Others believe it never left.

The Disappearance of Johnny Gosch - Part Two
🎙️ The Devil Within
Johnny Gosch: The Final Hours
For decades, the story of Johnny Gosch has hovered somewhere between tragedy and conspiracy theory, between grassroots activism and government cover-up. In this final installment, we leave the suburban sidewalks of Iowa and enter murkier territory—an underworld where power protects the powerful, and the line between truth and delusion is dangerously thin.
We meet the so-called informants, like Paul Bonacci, who claim to have been trafficked alongside Johnny in a network stretching from Omaha to Washington, D.C. We examine the infamous Franklin Credit Union scandal, the dossiers, the handwritten letters, and the grainy photos that allegedly show Johnny alive and chained. We follow Noreen Gosch through the corridors of Capitol Hill and into late-night meetings with ex-cops, private investigators, and men with things to confess.
What emerges is not a resolution—but a reckoning.
Because the deeper we go, the clearer it becomes: this isn’t just about one missing boy. It’s about a society that wasn’t ready to believe what it already knew. A mother who refused to stop asking questions. And a case that, forty years later, still hasn’t been officially solved—because solving it might mean admitting the unimaginable.

The Disappearance of Johnny Gosch - Part One
🎧️ The Devil Within
Johnny Gosch: The Vanishing Boy
On the morning of September 5, 1982, twelve-year-old Johnny Gosch vanished while delivering newspapers in West Des Moines, Iowa. Within hours, his red wagon was found abandoned. Within days, so was any sense of order.
This is where it begins: a quiet suburban neighborhood, a missing paperboy, and a mother who refused to stay silent. In the first half of our series, we trace the immediate aftermath of Johnny’s disappearance—the police missteps, the media silence, and the moment Noreen Gosch stopped waiting for someone else to act.
But this isn’t just a missing persons case. It quickly mutates into something stranger: rumors of child pornography rings, secret government cover-ups, and a series of whistleblowers who all seem to die under mysterious circumstances. Noreen doesn’t just want answers. She wants names. And if the system won’t give them to her, she’ll start naming names herself.
These are the early days of the Johnny Gosch case—before the public knew what to believe, before the word "conspiracy" became shorthand for delusion, and before the rest of the country realized that something deeply wrong had taken root in the American heartland.

The Boy in the Walls
🔪 The Boy in the Walls
Before the blood, before the murders, before the courtroom sketches that froze his face in time—there was the knocking. The scratching. The whispers in the walls.
In this season premiere, we journey to 1980s suburban Massachusetts, where the Andrews sisters believed they were being haunted. Grieving the recent loss of their mother, the girls turned to a Ouija board for comfort… and something answered. The walls began to speak. Notes appeared. Furniture moved. And then, one night, they found him.
Not a ghost.
Not a demon.
But a boy.
Daniel LaPlante had been living inside their walls, pretending to be the spirit of their dead mother. He watched them sleep. He wrote them notes. He wore her clothes.
This is the origin story of one of New England’s most disturbing murderers—a tale so surreal it blurs the line between supernatural horror and true crime. The scariest part? It all really happened.
📍 Highlights of this episode:
• Ouija boards and ghostly games gone wrong
• The terrifying events inside the Andrews home
• The shocking discovery behind the bedroom wall
• Who was Daniel LaPlante before the bloodshed began?
🎧 The Devil Within is written and hosted by Branden Morgan.
