Things That Go BUMP in the Night - Part One

The Pope Lick Monster 🌉 Episode One: The Trestle of the Damned It starts with a bridge. A steel trestle stretching across a dark Kentucky valley—built for trains, not for people. And yet… people keep finding their way onto it. Late at night.
Alone.
Drawn there by something they can’t quite explain. For decades, the Pope Lick trestle has been the site of documented deaths—not random accidents, but eerily consistent incidents involving people who should have known better. Experienced outdoorsmen.
Railroad workers.
Law enforcement. All ending up on the tracks. All at the wrong moment. All claiming, in some form or another… That something called them there. 🧠 In This Episode: The history of the Pope Lick railroad trestle and its pattern of fatalities Eyewitness descriptions of a humanoid, horned creature The creature’s most disturbing ability: vocal mimicry Cases where victims were lured using voices of loved ones The phenomenon of psychological manipulation overriding survival instincts 🗣️ The Calling Voice Survivors describe it the same way: A voice in the dark. Familiar.
Personal.
Impossible. Calling your name. And even when you know something is wrong… You keep walking. 🎯 The Takeaway This isn’t just a creature that hunts. It’s a predator that understands us. And uses that understanding against us. 📱 Socials • Instagram: @thedevilwithinpod • Instagram: @idesofaprilpod • Instagram: @taboo_treasures • YouTube: Evio Creative Network • Website: eviocreative.com 🚨 Network Call to Action Explore the full Evio Creative Network: 🎧 The Devil Within — where folklore meets documented reality

🎧 The Ides of April The Parade: The Assassination of Anwar Sadat 🏛️ Episode One: The Hero’s Welcome Cairo. October 6th, 1981. A perfect morning.
A nation celebrating victory.
A president at the height of his power. And a moment—just seconds long—that will change everything. Anwar Sadat stands before a cheering crowd, marking the anniversary of the October War—the defining triumph of his presidency. He is a man who has survived prison, revolution, war, and political betrayal. A man who believes—deeply—that history is shaped by those willing to act. But the salute he rises to receive… Is not a salute at all. 🧠 In This Episode: The early life of Anwar Sadat—from rural Egypt to revolutionary His radicalization under British occupation and time in prison The rise of the Free Officers Movement and the shadow of Gamal Abdel Nasser The 1973 war and the restoration of Egyptian national pride The unprecedented decision to make peace with Israel—and its consequences ✈️ The Point of No Return In 1977, Sadat flies to Israel. He stands before the Knesset.
He speaks of peace. And in doing so— He redraws the map of the Middle East. He also signs his own death warrant. ⚖️ The Shift To some, he is a visionary. To others— A traitor. Pamphlets begin circulating.
Arguments turn theological. And somewhere inside Egypt… A plan begins to form. 🎯 The Takeaway Sadat believed one man could change history. He was right. But history has a cost. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

🎧 The Devil’s Ledger Week of March 30th Welcome back. And before we get into anything… A quick reminder: Don’t fall for any April Fool’s Day hijinks this week. Because in a world already full of misinformation, staged chaos, and things that feel fake but aren’t… We don’t need any extra help getting confused. 👁️ The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week There’s something happening in Austin. And it doesn’t feel like a festival. It feels like a gathering. Not of fans.
Not of hobbyists.
But of people who’ve seen something… and never quite came back the same. It’s called Strange & Extraordinary Fest. And on paper, it sounds harmless—panels, speakers, a marketplace. A celebration of the paranormal, UFOs, and cryptids. But look closer… And something shifts. Because this isn’t just storytelling. It’s convergence. Paranormal investigators.
UFO researchers.
Cryptid hunters. All in one place. All telling different stories… That somehow start to sound the same. Different experiences.
Same patterns. And the people telling them? They’re not performing. They’re remembering. 🔥 On The Devil Within This week, we begin a new series: The Pope Lick Monster. A story that exists somewhere between legend… and documented tragedy. For nearly 80 years, reports out of Kentucky describe a nine-foot, horned creature that lures people onto a narrow railroad trestle. Not by force. By voice. Witnesses claim it can mimic the voices of friends… loved ones… people you trust. And once you step onto that bridge— There’s nowhere to go. Because eventually… A train comes. 🗡️ On The Ides of April We begin a new series on the assassination of Anwar Sadat. A man shaped by war… Who chose peace. And in doing so— Became a target. From battlefield hero… to Nobel Peace Prize winner… To assassination in broad daylight. This is a story about transformation. And the cost of it. 🎭 On Criminal Mischief Carolyn Ossorio continues her deep dive into Hollywood—the Seattle bank robber who turned crime into performance. Disguises.
Charm.
Risk. He didn’t just rob banks. He entertained. And as this story unfolds, the line between charisma and inevitability begins to disappear. 🎤 On Finding Me with Josh Wolf If you’re not already following along—you should be.

🔥 Episode Two: The Harvest of Souls By the summer of 1971, the transformation is complete. What began as a commune…
Has become something far more controlled.
Far more dangerous.
Far more final. On the summer solstice, Morrison tells his followers that Mother Earth is no longer satisfied with symbolic offerings. She wants something more. 🩸 In This Episode: • The escalation from ritual to human sacrifice • How Morrison used drugs, deprivation, and belief to override moral boundaries • The targeted selection of victims—and why they were chosen • The reality behind what followers believed were acts of transcendence • The investigation that finally exposed the truth 🚨 The Reckoning Three lives lost.
Dozens psychologically shattered.
And a leader who never saw himself as the villain. The trial that followed forced a confrontation with a question that still lingers: Where does spiritual freedom end…
And exploitation begin? 🧠 The Takeaway The search for meaning is human. But in the wrong hands— It becomes a weapon. 🎙️ Follow & Stay Connected Follow The Devil Within on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and subscribe on YouTube for full episodes and exclusive content. 📱 Socials • Instagram: @thedevilwithinpod • Instagram: @idesofaprilpod • Instagram: @taboo_treasures • YouTube: Evio Creative Network • Website: eviocreative.com 🚨 Network Call to Action If you’re enjoying The Devil Within, make sure you’re following the entire Evio Creative Network. 🎧 The Ides of April — cinematic history at its most consequential

🎧 The Devil Within Mother Earth’s Children 🌿 Episode One: The Garden of Earthly Delights It begins, as these stories often do, with something that looks like hope. Northern California.
The early 1970s.
A generation searching for meaning beyond institutions that no longer made sense. And a man who seemed to have the answers. Thomas “Brother Sun” Morrison—former seminary student, charismatic thinker, and architect of a new spiritual vision—offered something intoxicating: Connection.
Transcendence.
A return to what he called Mother Earth’s original wisdom. But what he built in the hills above Mendocino wasn’t just a commune. It was a system. 🧠 In This Episode: • The rise of Morrison and his Earth Mother philosophy • How educated, idealistic followers were drawn into a closed spiritual community • The subtle shift from guidance to psychological control • The use of ritual, isolation, and “sacred chemistry” to reshape belief • The first disappearance—and the moment everything changed 🌑 The Shift What begins as spiritual exploration slowly becomes something else. Control disguised as enlightenment.
Obedience reframed as transcendence. And rituals that move—almost imperceptibly—from symbolic… To real. 🎯 The Takeaway The most dangerous systems don’t look dangerous at first.

🎧 The Devil’s Ledger Week of March 22nd — The First Day of Spring Spring has officially arrived. Longer days. Warmer air. The illusion—however brief—that things might be turning toward the light. But if you’ve been here before… you already know. Spring doesn’t just bring renewal. It brings ritual. It brings obsession. And sometimes—it brings something much darker. 👁️ The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week The Catskill Mountain Coven In 1952, deep in the Catskills, farmers began finding livestock arranged in precise, ritualistic patterns—geometric formations visible only from above. What followed was an investigation into a secretive group known as the Mountain Keepers—a collection of educated outsiders led by a former seminary student who claimed to have rediscovered ancient spiritual truths. Underground chambers. Ritual markings. Human remains predating known settlement. The group vanished. The site remains sealed. And locals still report that, each spring… something in the mountains wakes up. 🔥 On The Devil Within New Series: The California Hippie Murders Northern California. Communal living. Nature worship. An “Earth Mother” belief system built around fertility and balance. But behind the language of harmony, something twisted. What they called ceremonies… What they claimed were rituals of renewal… Were actually murders. Ritualized. Justified. And hidden in plain sight. 🗡️ On The Ides of April Series Finale: The Assassination of Yitzhak Rabin We close our series on the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin. The assassin. The investigation. The ideology behind it. And the documents that remain classified. Three decades later, the questions haven’t gone away. Because some events don’t end. They echo. 🎭 On Criminal Mischief New Mini-Series: “Hollywood” A Seattle bank robber known only as Hollywood. Not violent. Not subtle. But impossible to ignore. With disguises, confidence, and a flair for performance, he turned robbery into spectacle. It’s a wild story—with an ending you won’t see coming. 🕯️ On Taboo Treasures Dark this week. We’ll leave it there. 🎤 On Finding Me with Josh Wolf Finding Me has moved to Josh’s original YouTube home—the Hey Maaan channel. A bigger audience. The same mission: Show up. Stay accountable. Do the work. And the results are already showing. 🎬 This Week in Horror Ready or Not 2: Here I Come The sequel to Ready or Not goes bigger, darker, and deeper into its mythology. What started as a sharp, satirical horror story is evolving into something more unsettling. Less joke. More inevitability. And that shift makes it dangerous. 🎙️ Follow & Stay Connected Follow on Apple Podcasts & Spotify.

Episode 2: The Investigators and the Inferno In Episode Two, the story of Borley takes a darker turn. After the death of the Bull family patriarch, new residents move into the rectory—and quickly discover they are not alone. The Foyster family arrives in 1930 expecting a quaint country parish. What they encounter instead is a full-scale poltergeist siege. Objects move on their own. Messages appear on walls. Personal items vanish and reappear in impossible places. And at the center of it all is Marianne Foyster, who becomes the focus of increasingly violent supernatural activity. What was once a passive haunting becomes interactive, intelligent… and aggressive. Enter Harry Price, Britain’s most famous paranormal investigator. Armed with cameras, instruments, and a scientific mindset, Price sets out to prove—or disprove—the haunting once and for all. What he discovers changes everything. Through a combination of supernatural communication and archaeological excavation, Price uncovers human remains buried beneath the rectory—evidence that appears to validate centuries-old accounts of a murdered woman seeking recognition. For the first time in decades… the activity changes. It quiets. As if something has finally been heard. But the story doesn’t end there. In 1939, Borley Rectory is consumed by a mysterious fire—one that burns with unusual intensity and behavior, destroying much of the physical evidence while leaving behind more questions than answers. Was the fire accidental? Or was it… the final act of a haunting that had finally run its course? 🎧 Follow & Share If you’re drawn to stories where history and the supernatural collide: ⭐ Leave a five-star review 🎧 Follow The Devil Within wherever you listen 📲 Follow along on Instagram: @thedevilwithinpod 📲 And across the network: @eviocreative Share this episode with someone who loves true crime, paranormal history, and dark mysteries.

🎧 The Devil Within The Rectory of the Damned Episode 1: The House That Hell Built This week on The Devil Within, we begin a two-part investigation into one of the most famous hauntings in paranormal history: Borley Rectory in Essex, England—often called “the most haunted house in England.” The legend of Borley stretches back centuries to a medieval priory once built on the same ground. According to local lore, a young nun named Marie Lairre was murdered after attempting to flee with a monk, her body secretly buried on the monastery grounds. When Reverend Henry Bull built Borley Rectory in 1863 on the ruins of that priory, strange events reportedly began almost immediately. The Bull family described sightings of a mysterious woman in white walking the grounds, unexplained footsteps echoing through empty corridors, and a ghostly figure whose nightly route became known as “the nun’s walk.” For decades, Borley became one of Britain’s most documented hauntings. But when the Bull family era ended, the activity would take a darker turn. 🎧 Follow The Devil Within wherever you listen so you never miss an episode. ⭐ If you enjoy the show, please leave a five-star review—it helps new listeners discover the podcast. 📱 Follow us on: Instagram & TikTok: @thedevilwithinpod Facebook: The Devil Within YouTube: Evio Creative And share the episode with a friend who appreciates a good mystery… or a good scare.

🎧 The Ides of April The Last Handshake: The Assassination of Yitzhak Rabin Episode 1: A Man of War Learns Peace Our new series on The Ides of April begins with the remarkable life of Yitzhak Rabin—a soldier shaped by war who ultimately became one of the most controversial advocates for peace in modern Israeli history. Born in Jerusalem in 1922 during the British Mandate, Rabin grew up in a land already defined by conflict. As a young man he joined the Palmach, the elite Jewish strike force that would later form the backbone of Israel’s military, and spent decades fighting in the wars that defined the early years of the Israeli state. Over time Rabin rose to become one of Israel’s most respected military leaders and eventually Prime Minister. But by the early 1990s, after a lifetime of war, he came to believe that military victories alone could not resolve the conflict with the Palestinians. That belief led to one of the most iconic—and controversial—moments in modern diplomacy. In 1993, Rabin stood on the White House lawn and shook hands with Yasser Arafat, formalizing the Oslo peace process. The gesture stunned the world and deeply divided Israel. Supporters saw courage and possibility. Critics saw betrayal. As political tensions escalated and extremist rhetoric intensified, Rabin continued pressing forward with negotiations. The episode ends on November 4, 1995, at a massive peace rally in Tel Aviv where Rabin joined the crowd in singing the “Song for Peace.” Minutes later, he would be shot. 🎧 Follow The Ides of April wherever you listen so you never miss an episode. ⭐ If you enjoy the show, please leave a five-star review—it helps more people discover the series. 📲 And follow us on YouTube and social media for additional historical content and behind-the-scenes material.

🎧 The Devil’s Ledger Week of March 16 Welcome back to The Devil’s Ledger, your weekly look across the Evio Creative Universe—from paranormal history and true crime to the strange stories lurking just beyond the headlines. This week we lean into the arrival of spring, a season long associated with ancient pagan traditions of renewal, rebirth, and the quiet promise that the world can start again.  But first… 👁️ The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week This week’s story comes out of Florida, where prosecutors revealed disturbing details about two teenagers accused of plotting to murder a classmate as part of what investigators described as a “blood ritual.” Authorities allege the teens had been discussing the killing as a ritualistic act involving blood and symbolism. The plan, investigators say, wasn’t a spontaneous argument or schoolyard conflict—it was something darker and more deliberate. 👻 On The Devil Within This week we begin a two-part series exploring one of the most famous hauntings in British history: Borley Rectory in Essex, England. Often called “the most haunted house in England,” Borley Rectory became the focus of decades of ghost sightings, mysterious writings appearing on walls, phantom footsteps, and reports of a ghostly nun wandering the grounds. Priests, paranormal investigators, skeptics, and believers all attempted to explain the strange events reported there. And this week we begin unpacking the history behind one of the most infamous haunted houses ever recorded.  🕊️ On The Ides of April A brand-new historical series begins as well. This time we examine the 1995 assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin—a moment that reshaped modern Middle Eastern politics. Thirty years later, Rabin’s murder remains one of the most consequential political assassinations of the modern era. Our series explores how the assassination unfolded, the unanswered questions that remain decades later, and the lasting impact of a peace effort that ended in tragedy.  🎙 Around the Evio Network Both Criminal Mischief and Taboo Treasures are dark this week. But Josh Wolf continues showing up every weekday with his daily podcast journal: Finding Me Josh invites listeners into an honest exploration of self-discovery, vulnerability, and personal growth, sharing the small moments and realizations that shape the journey toward becoming a better version of ourselves.  🎬 This Week in Horror Our horror pick this week is undertone (stylized in all lowercase), a 2025 Canadian horror film written and directed by Ian Tuason. In a unique creative choice, only two characters appear on screen—while the rest of the story unfolds entirely through voices and recordings, making the film’s sound design the true source of its horror.  🌐 Across the Evio Universe Thanks for joining us for this week’s Ledger.
