Summary

Show Notes: Italy — land of empires, saints… and monsters. In this haunting series of The Devil Within, we uncover the chilling legends that lurk behind Italy’s beauty. From the night battles of the Benandanti in Friuli to the wolf cults of Lucera, the possessed convent of Prato, and the submerged beasts of Venice — these are not just stories. These are warnings. Across 12 gripping episodes, we explore centuries of folklore, true crime, and the terrifying spaces where they overlap. Werewolves in noble courts. Skinwalkers among shepherds. Choirs that sang to the abyss. Some say these tales are myth. Others know better. EPISODE 7: The Beast Beneath Venice Long before tourists filled St. Mark’s Square, locals spoke of a creature beneath the canals — a wolf that fed not on flesh, but on sin. EPISODE 8: The Black Huntsman of Sicily A shadow on horseback terrorized the island’s countryside. Was it a bandit? A ghost? Or the last of the ancient wolf-blooded clans? EPISODE 9: The Werewolf Trials of Tuscany Between the plague years, fear took root in the villages — and men stood trial not for witchcraft, but for turning wolf beneath the full moon. 👂 Listen now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you find your darkness. 📩 Have a family legend or chilling encounter tied to Italy’s shadows?
