Trailer: Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

The creators of the hit podcast The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill bring you Devil and the Deep Blue Sea.

They say the Devil’s in the details, but when conspiracies captivate our imaginations, we often overlook the real devils walking among us.

From the creators of the hit podcast The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill comes a new show, Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, which takes you back to the Satanic Panic that gripped America in the 1980s and ’90s.

This limited series explores how hysteria gripped parents and teens through cautionary tales like Go Ask Alice, influenced notorious criminal cases like the West Memphis Three, and catapulted the political agenda of the Moral Majority.

Join as we seek to understand how this wave of panic devastated innocent lives and diverted the church’s attention from the evil lurking in its own pews.

Episodes drop January 2025, but you can join our show discussion page on Facebook now.
