Blues Musician Robert Johnson Sold His Soul to the Devil and Got Away With it

What happens when the Devil gets outsmarted? In this fiery and twisted episode of The Forbidden One Speaks, your charmingly demonic host—The CEO of Destruction—shares two hellishly entertaining tales straight from the underworld's files.

First, witness justice in its most brutal form when a sadistic circus clown—infamous for abusing animals—meets his end in front of a live audience… mauled to death by his own mistreated tiger. You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, and maybe even cheer. And yes, the Devil *personally* collected that soul.

But the real main event?
The true origin story of blues legend Robert Johnson—and the actual crossroads deal that changed music history. Turns out, the Devil just wanted to have a quiet moment with his demons when Robert showed up bold, cocky, and ready to trade. He didn’t want riches. Not fame. Just unmatched guitar skills. The Devil obliged—but what he got in return was a soul too powerful to keep.

Find out how Robert Johnson:

Walked up to Satan without fear

Got a supernatural guitar upgrade

Played his way into legend—and out of damnation

Used music to slip past Hell’s grip

Is he dead? In hiding? Or still strumming from the shadows? One thing’s for sure: this is the story Hell doesn’t want you to hear.
