Well, a famous true devil story is that of the Borley Rectory in England. It was known as the most haunted house in England. People reported seeing apparitions, hearing strange noises, and feeling an overwhelming sense of evil. There were claims of a nun's ghost and other unexplained phenomena.

Innocent people were accused of being witches, and it was believed that the devil was influencing them. The hysteria and the false accusations show how the fear of the devil could get out of control.
Another Devil's Island ghost story involves the ghosts of guards. Supposedly, the guards who were particularly cruel during their tenure on the island now haunt it.
