Long before the Allies stormed Berlin, a different kind of war was already underway—waged not with bullets and tanks, but with relics, runes, and ancient symbols of power. This three-part series unearths the chilling true story of the Nazis' obsession with the occult and their state-sponsored quest for the Holy Grail. At the center of it all was SS leader Heinrich Himmler, who transformed a crumbling medieval ruin—Wewelsburg Castle—into a spiritual fortress and ritual temple for a cult hiding in plain sight. From secret SS expeditions in search of relics to fabricated sacred texts and blood-soaked ceremonies in the castle’s north tower, The Devil Within reveals how myth, pseudoscience, and fanaticism merged into something far more dangerous: belief weaponized. And when the war was lost, Wewelsburg didn’t die. The Black Sun chamber survived. And the thirteenth pedestal—the one reserved for the Grail—remains empty to this day. 💌 Send your thoughts to: info@eviocreative.com 📸 Follow us: @thedevilwithinpod 🎧 Subscribe & listen: The Devil Within on Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-devil-within/id1569216112) ✅ If the darkness draws you in, please follow, rate, and review The Devil Within.
