John Meagher: The Divil's Own
Award winning comedian and champion martial artist John Meagher investigates Northern Ireland's 'satanic panic' for the surprising truth behind his own reoccurring nightmares.
Did you ever have a recurring dream that you think might just be a memory? Or a nightmare so vivid that it could almost be real?
John Meagher has. He鈥檚 been dreaming about a group of devil worshippers who may or may not have terrorised his home town of Newry, Northern Ireland since the early 90s.
John takes us on a funny, fearful and surprising journey of discovery across Northern Ireland to uncover the truth behind the story of "The Whitehoods" of Newry and discovers that the "Satanic Panic" wasn't exclusive to his home town.
But what was really going on? And why do so many towns in the North have a similar story?
Can John find out the truth and lay these memories to rest? Is there any truth to be found at all in this land of saints, scholars and spoofers?
For the sake of his sleeping patterns and his marriage, John is determined to find out.
