    A Spellbound Palace: REDUX
    Sep 17 2025
    Show Notes – A Spellbound Palace: REDUX We’re going back inside the ruins of Cross Castle. In this REDUX re-release of The Devil Within, Branden Morgan revisits A Spellbound Palace, a chilling tale of occult rituals, isolation, and the haunted ground that lured Tommy Sullivan to Clinton Road. Originally released in Season One, this episode has been updated with new commentary and insights—exploring how the story has evolved over the last four years and how it aligns with the new MGM+ documentary series Let the Devil In. From the legacy of Richard Cross’s Bearfort estate to the whispered satanic rituals of the 1980s, the legend of the so-called “Most Haunted Road in America” takes on new meaning when paired with fresh testimony, cinematic retellings, and the investigative depth of the MGM+ series. Whether you’ve heard this story before or are stepping into the shadows for the first time, this Redux version pulls you even deeper into the darkness of Jefferson Township.

  • Paradise Lost: REDUX - Part Two

    Paradise Lost: REDUX - Part Two
    Sep 12 2025
    The Devil Within: Paradise Lost: REDUX - Part Two In 1988, Jefferson Township, New Jersey, was thrust into the national spotlight. A teenage boy, Tommy Sullivan, murdered his mother before taking his own life in a crime so shocking it became a lightning rod for the Satanic Panic. Suddenly, everything—from heavy metal music to role-playing games to Catholic school curriculums—was scrutinized as potential gateways to darkness. This episode, Paradise Lost, explores how Tommy’s seemingly ordinary suburban life unraveled in just a matter of weeks: his exposure to occult literature, his fascination with extreme music, whispers of rituals in the woods, and a town hall meeting where parents confronted the chilling possibility that their own traditions might have paved the way for horror. Now, four years after this story first aired on The Devil Within, I’m bringing it back as part of our REDUX season—with brand new commentary. Together, we’ll re-examine what we thought we knew about the Sullivan case, how the story has evolved since we first told it, and how the MGM+ documentary series Let the Devil In aligns with and expands on each episode of Season One. And while I can’t reveal everything just yet, know this: there are stunning new developments, and we’ll be unpacking them in our upcoming bonus episode.
