Deal with the Devil

from Light & Shadow: A Horror Podcast · host Nichole Hamilton

According to folklore, blues musician Robert Johnson sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads in exchange for great talent and fame. He achieved legendary status and his music continues to be influential to this day. The story is simple and familiar, but it’s genesis and mystery continue to be relevant in pop culture. In today's episode, I explore the life of Robert Johnson, the mystery of the 27 club and the Faustian film Heartless from 2009. Episode artwork by Sunny Balliette.
