As seen in Evil season 4 episode 6, the most overlooked character turned out to be the major antagonist behind the killing of Katherine’s innocent children. Maegan Tyree successfully pulled off the “Wolf in sheep’s clothing” by playing a victim and framing Isabella and her group as responsible for destroying Katherine’s life.

In the final moments of the episode, Ben discovers through the picture taken of the demonic sigil on Megan’s waist, for which she blames Isabella, that it is actually her own doing. Later, Father Dominic met Megan with other priests and called her Princeps daemonum Necromaticorum, which enraged the entity within her, causing her to attack the former.

Princeps daemonum Necromaticorum was the very demon responsible for killing Katherine and her children, a demon that was believed to have been eliminated a long time ago by the Church. The name, which is in Latin, literally means Pince of Necromantic Demons. Given the title, the demon can raise, control, and summon dead spirits.

Evil season 4 episode 6: What was the spirit Isabella was associated with?

Although Isabella and her group were not guilty, they were surely involved in some peculiar non-religious practices, as David saw and felt the presence of an entity within the dance group. During his first encounter with the spirit, David was told to “shed God and know greatness.” He accused Isabella and her group of practicing witchcraft, which she candidly denied.

However, when David asked about the spirit, Isabella told him it was a “Muse.” The episode didn’t explicitly delve into what a Muse is. However, based on Greek Mythology, the Muses are a source and goddess of inspiration, particularly in creative and artistic endeavors. As per the ancient Greek religion, there are nine Muses, each with a specific attribute.

Given Isabelle and her group’s profession, the entity was Terpsichore, one of the nine Muses, the goddess of dance and chorus in Greek Mythology.

Evil season 4 episode 6 has proved that David’s abilities can become more and more dominant as he gets the hang of it. In the beginning, David thought it to be some kind of joke when Dominic revealed his Clairvoyant abilities, but soon he realized that he indeed possessed gifts, but was still unsure about how to use them.

In the latest episode, David was tasked by Dominic to locate a group of Tigrayan clerics and nuns who were abducted by Ethiopian security forces. On his first attempt, he successfully managed to locate the group by seeing through Father Addiso’s eyes.

The second time David located them, he managed to take control of General Kaleb Girma’s body, the man in charge who captured the group. For David, it was a little strenuous to get hold of the General’s body to stop him from harming Addiso, but he somehow got total control over him and used his own knife to make him commit suicide.

Father Dominic was relieved to learn that the clerics and the nuns had been freed. However, David couldn’t get over the fact that he was responsible for killing someone, despite Dominic trying to reassure him that he made the right decision.

During her second visit to Kristen’s home, Sheryl identified the herbs pouch that Laura possessed belonged to Leland. After talking to the girls about what really had transpired that day when Andy was found unconscious, Sheryl figured out that Leland tried to kill Laura through Andy.

Despite her profession, Sheryl loves her daughter and granddaughters, so after discovering Lelands recent stunt, her anger skyrocketed. Sheryl visited Leland’s house but didn’t find him there. Given it was difficult to control her rage, she started destroying everything in the house. She later picked up a knife and waited for his return.

After finding his messy house and Sheryl sitting down in the hall with a knife in her hand, Leland got a little tensed, given his expression. Given how the episode ended, it can be anticipated that Sheryl will not forgive Leland that easily, but assaulting him would also make things difficult for her.
