Summary

It’s a case that has haunted Jefferson Township, New Jersey, for more than 30 years. On a snowy January night, 14-year-old Tommy Sullivan did the unthinkable: he murdered his mother in cold blood, set fire to their house, and then took his own life.
Out of the flames of this horrible tragedy, investigations revealed that Tommy was, himself, a part of a Satanic Cult, sparking a nationwide hysteria now known as the “Satanic Panic”
This monumental moment in American culture led to communities nationwide enforcing draconian measures to protect their children from what they perceived to be the devil’s influence. Even the Catholic church was convinced this was a case of demonic possession.
On the new podcast, THE DEVIL WITHIN, the truth of the grisly murder is finally revealed.
Did Tommy act alone? Did he really commit suicide? Is his cult still in power? THE DEVIL WITHIN finally sheds light on questions left unanswered for decades...

1:15.3	We'll talk more on that later.
1:18.3	Now what I have in store for you this evening is a hand-picked selection of gruesome tales,
1:25.1	spooky stories, and odd happenings.
1:28.9	So to kick this thing off, please welcome Summer from the state of Idaho to the program.
1:40.7	Hi Derek, this is Summer from Idaho. I'm a longtime listener. One of my friends told me about you last year, and I binged through the entire series and got caught up pretty quickly. Appreciate your content, and thanks for letting us call in with our stories. My story is set in March 2012. Coming back from a trip to the Oregon coast, we were driving along a pretty
2:04.5	long, dark stretch of road, probably 9.30 or 10 at night. It was a clear night. No clouds in the sky.
2:12.0	And it had just gotten pretty dark before we were driving down that stretch of road.
2:18.5	Between Pendleton and Ontario, there's quite a long way that doesn't have much lighting.
2:24.9	You can't really see much unless you have your headlights on.
2:27.6	And so as we were driving, I happened to look up, I was in the passenger seat,
2:32.3	and I looked up into the side view mirror
