Summary

🩸 THE DEVIL WITHIN THE GIRL IN THE RED COAT EPISODE TWO: Where the Woods Keep Their Secrets (Chapters 4–6)In Episode Two, we descend deeper into Glastenbury’s shadow—where folklore tightens into pattern, where disappearances begin to echo one another, and where Paula’s story becomes part of something older than any hiker who has ever stepped onto that mountain. Across three haunting chapters, we explore: CHAPTER 4 — Patterns in the Dark The chilling sequence of vanishings that predate and follow Paula: seasoned woodsman Middie Rivers, veteran James Tedford, eight-year-old Paul Jepson, and hiker Frieda Langer. Five disappearances. Five years. All circling the same mountain. A shape emerges… and with it, the birth of the “Bennington Triangle.” CHAPTER 5 — The Hunger Beneath the Pines Sightings. Lights. Voices in the fog. The hush—total, unnatural silence that swallows the world whole. Shadow figures pacing hikers. A girl in a red coat seen gliding across unbroken snow. The deeper people look, the more the mountain seems to look back. CHAPTER 6 — The Last Light on the Trail The legend grows. A mountain with memory. A trail that shifts like a living organism. A red coat glimpsed between trees at dusk. And the haunting possibility that Paula—like so many before and after her—did not fall victim to accident, but to a presence older, colder, and infinitely patient.

0:02.0	Welcome back to the Devil Within. This is part two of the Red Code, the chapter where the story stops pretending to be reasonable.
0:23.1	Last time we traced the final known movements of a girl who shouldn't have vanished. This time,
0:28.6	we followed the ripples her disappearance left behind. The search parties that found impossible
0:34.2	footprints, the investigators who couldn't let go, and the strange atmospheric
0:39.9	weight that settles over anyone who walks the same ground today. So take a breath. This is
0:48.6	where the shadows finally answer back. This is chapter 4. Patterns in the Dark.
0:58.3	If Paul's disappearance had been the only one, the mountain might have settled into that
1:02.5	familiar American category of wilderness tragedy.
1:06.5	A heartbreak, softened by the rational comforts of geography, weather, and chance.
1:13.1	People die in forests. People get lost.
1:16.6	The natural world has a long and indiscriminate appetite.
1:21.5	But Paula was not the first name that Glastonbury kept, and she wouldn't be the last.
1:28.0	And when people looked back across the decade that framed her fate, they began to see
1:33.1	something deeply unnerving. Her story didn't stand alone. It fit. It aligned. It belonged to a
1:43.1	pattern older than she was. The first to vanish was Mitty Rivers,
1:48.7	a man whose knowledge of the terrain bordered on myth. He could track a deer across ledges no
1:55.9	bootprint should have survived and navigate by the grain of wood.
2:08.4	In November 1945, a year before Paula set foot on the long trail, he led a group of hunters through Bickford Hollow. At some point, he stepped ahead to scout the path, turned a corner,
2:15.8	and ceased to exist. His companions found no sign of struggle,
2:20.8	no dropped gear, nothing to suggest he'd ever stood on the dirt they were staring at.
2:28.3	One moment he was walking. The next, he was legend. A year later came Paula, whose disappearance ignited the state's largest search since the war,
