The Devil's Ledger: Week of December 1st, 2025

🕯️ THE DEVIL’S LEDGER — WEEK OF DECEMBER 1st Welcome to the first week of December — the season of lights, peppermint fog, and ghosts who breathe colder than the weather. Here’s everything happening this week across the Evio Creative universe. ❄️ THE CREEPIEST THING I HEARD THIS WEEK The Phantom Skier of Donner Pass Donner Pass has earned its reputation — a place where tragedy seeped so deeply into the snowpack that the mountains still feel aware of every passing traveler. Locals whisper about a figure seen only during the worst winter storms: the Phantom Skier, gliding through blizzards with impossible precision. 🔥 THIS WEEK ON THE DEVIL WITHIN A new two-part series begins: The Dover Demon — the true 1977 Massachusetts cryptid encounter that terrified New England. A pale, smooth-skinned creature with an oversized head and glowing eyes crossing a perfect, impossible line through the woods. Part 1 drops Wednesday. Part 2 drops Friday. And the deeper we look… the stranger the trail becomes. 🕵️‍♂️ THIS WEEK ON THE IDES OF APRIL The conclusion of The Scholar and the Madman: The Assassination of President James Garfield. A tragic perfect storm of medical arrogance, ignored symptoms, political negligence, and one of the most preventable presidential deaths in U.S. history. Essential, maddening, unforgettable. 🔎 THIS WEEK ON CRIMINAL MISCHIEF A special collaboration episode with Murder in the Rain. Carolyn Ossorio joins forces with our Portland partners for a look at Stolen Voices of Dole Valley, including new developments in the Warren Forrest case — ahead of next week’s major event in Vancouver, Washington. If you’re in the Pacific Northwest, now’s the time to mark your calendar. 💎 THIS WEEK ON TABOO TREASURES Taking a short break this week — but we’re re-airing one of the most viral episodes ever: “If Barbie Could Talk.” If you missed it the first time, prepare yourself. If you didn’t… you already know why this one broke the internet. 🎥 THIS WEEK IN HORROR Welcome to Derry (HBO) A gorgeously shot, deeply unsettling expansion of Stephen King’s IT mythology. Perfect December viewing — depending on your feelings about clowns hiding behind sewer grates. 🕯️ Whether you're decking halls, avoiding extended family, or quietly acknowledging the ghosts that follow you from November into December — stay safe, stay warm, and stay curious. 📣 • IG: @thedevilwithinpod • @eviocreative • @idesofaprilpod • Subscribe on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere you get your shows • Leave a rating & review — it truly helps • Share this episode with someone who loves true crime, dark history, or the paranormal 💼 SPONSORS 🧥 QUINCE Luxury essentials at affordable prices.
