Summary

Spring and Fall to a Young Child: REDUX We return to one of the most haunting chapters of The Devil Within—this time with new commentary and deeper insights. In this REDUX edition, we explore Gerard Manley Hopkins’ poem Spring and Fall to a Young Child, a work whose meditation on loss and innocence casts a chilling light on the story of Tommy Sullivan. Alongside the poem, we examine Tommy’s life as a young wrestler in Jefferson Township, New Jersey—a world of pressure, discipline, and hidden struggle. You’ll also hear newly added clips from an interview with Jefferson Township resident and former wrestler Dave Esposito, who helps us understand the intensity of the sport, the culture it creates, and what that meant for a boy like Tommy Sullivan TDW_E4 . This re-release is part of our REDUX series, updated to support the MGM+ documentary Let the Devil In, which brings the story of Season One to television with gripping new detail and perspective.
