What would drive a man to abandon everything in pursuit of unseen power? In this gripping episode, Max recounts his descent into Santeria, a world cloaked in ritual, sacrifice, and spiritual seduction. What began as curiosity quickly spiraled into ceremonies soaked in blood, whispered warnings, and encounters with ancient entities that promised blessings, at a cost. As the veil lifts, so do the illusions, leaving Max to wrestle with the darkness he once welcomed.
