The Devil’s Border is a cinematic true-crime experience that drifts along the Rio Grande, where faith and fear collide in the heat of the desert. Told like a campfire ghost story, it unearths the 1989 Matamoros cult murders and the rise of Adolfo Constanzo—part drug lord, part priest of death. Through immersive sound design, thunder-soaked ambience, and a narrator’s low voice carrying over the wind, listeners are taken from the bright beaches of South Padre Island into the blood-stained fields of Rancho Santa Elena, where ritual, obsession, and belief turned to horror. Equal parts history and haunting, this series invites you to cross the river, listen to the whispers, and decide for yourself what was superstition… and what was real.
