In this latest episode, we invite you to the chilling finale of our Evil Idol Resurrection series with Episode 407: “Dark Cures.” In this haunting installment, two unforgettable performances from the 2020 Evil Idol competition resurface, each exploring the terrible cost of salvation. From whispered bedtime tales that conceal unspeakable truths to a desperate act of devotion that opens the door to something far worse, these stories remind us that not every cure brings healing.
