River Donaghey grew up in a cult. Or at least that’s what some people called it. His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid.

Helen Anderson and Danni Howard turn back the clock to 1960s London to visit the East End and Britain’s infamous crime boss twins, The Kray Twins. It seemed almost inevitable that Ronnie and Reggie Kray would grow up to be the heads of one of the most famous crime rackets of all time, after all, they did spend their childhood beating eachother up and having brick fights with the local neighbourhood kids. Join Helen and Danni as they hear what being an East End Gangster was really like from real life members of The Firm, and learn about their epic downfall after the murders of George Cornell and Jack ‘The Hat’ McVitie. Expect some serious East End accents, grisly torture techniques, and first hand accounts about the inner workings of the famous Firm.
Devils in The Dark contains graphic details of violence and mentions of suicide, and is not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
