Between the Devil
Hosted by Violet Hour Media | Realm · ENGLISH
Between the Devil is a supernatural swashbuckling adventure podcast and audio drama — produced with immersive, cinematic sound design that puts you inside a 17th century sailing ship — following an eleven-year-old girl who stows away on her father's cursed vessel and discovers she is the only one who can hear the ghost living inside it.
Francisco is a merchant who has just made the worst purchase of his life: a cursed ship with an octopus figurehead, mysterious carvings below deck, and a drunken former Royal Navy captain at the helm. His plan is to sail it to exotic markets and return with a fortune in spices. What he does not know is that his daughter Sammy has hidden herself in the cargo hold.
Once discovered — too far out to turn back — Sammy quickly proves to be the most capable person aboard. She uncovers a mutiny before it happens. She discovers a ghost boy named Finnick living in the ship's closet, who speaks only to her. She navigates a secret pirate island that does not appear on any map. And in the swamps outside that island, she is taken to a swamp witch — and the secret at the heart of the cursed ship begins to reveal itself.
A supernatural adventure for fans of Pirates of the Caribbean, Coraline, The Princess Bride, and Treasure Island. For anyone who has ever wanted to feel like they are actually aboard a ship at sea — this is the show that will put you there.
Produced with exceptional immersive sound design. A Violet Hour Media production.

Francisco finds Sammy in the cargo hold. He is furious. His brother Ruben is delighted. Captain Eckhardt, who is drunk, is mostly confused about whether he has met her before.
