Summary

The Devil’s Ledger — January 5, 2026 Happy New Year — and welcome back. We’re kicking off 2026 with a chilling slate across the Evio universe. We start with The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week — a winter nightmare from Japan about the Yuki-onna, the mysterious “snow woman” who appears during blizzards… and quietly breathes the warmth out of anyone who helps her. Then, on The Devil Within, we open a two-part investigation into the 1955 Kelly–Hopkinsville encounter — the farmhouse siege that helped shape modern alien mythology. Over on The Ides of April, we begin our deep dive into the fall of Tsar Nicholas II and the brutal end of the Romanov dynasty. History turns fast — and it doesn’t look back. The guys from Taboo Treasures are still shaking off the holidays — they’ll be back next week with something wild. This week on Criminal Mischief, we examine the disappearance of Anna Walshe — a mother of three whose New Year’s Day “work emergency” unraveled into something far darker. A true can’t-miss. And in This Week in Horror, we’re talking PRIMATE — the pet-turned-predator creature feature that feels like CUJO’s unhinged cousin. 🚨 New Show Drop — TODAY Our brand-new series FINDING ME with Josh Wolf officially launches today. Honest, vulnerable, funny, and deeply human — this is one you’ll want in your feed from episode one. Follow, rate, review, and share — and we’ll see you across the Evio universe.

0:45.3	Here's hoping 2026 brings you a few victories, a few quiet mornings, and more moments of gratitude than regret.
0:52.9	And if last year felt chaotic, unsettling,
0:55.8	or like the universe kept nudging you towards the edge,
0:59.2	well, maybe that's the theme.
1:01.0	Maybe the world's always been that way,
