About this listen
Gello is the nightmare lurking just out of sight—a shapeshifting demon blamed for centuries of lost children, sudden illness, and heartbreak in Greek legend. Once a wronged young woman, Gello returns from death as a relentless spirit, haunting cradles and mothers’ dreams, her power growing with every fearful whisper. Saints, exorcists, and desperate parents fought her with charms, prayers, and secret names, but she always slips away, evolving with each age. This episode traces Gello’s tangled origins, her ties to witches and Eastern demons, and the enduring fear she embodies: the terror of hope stolen in the night.
