About
A dark universe for people who grew out of nice stories. Music. Comics. Anime. Podcast. Books. One character. One canon. One channel.
EXORCISTA is a dark universe created by Victoria Unikel — a character, a catalog, and a mythology that started as a 2008 music project and became an anime anthology seventeen years later.
The flagship series, Games of Souls, is a 10-episode dark anime aired as YouTube Shorts. Its spin-off, Dark Fairytales, retells Grimm-era folklore as animated shorts. Its docs-series, Magic Lab, tests real rituals on camera. Its longest-running property — the Secrets, Spells & Shadows podcast — has two full seasons in the archive. The first literary grimoire, 77 Rites of Love and Obsession, ships Winter 2026. A mass-market thriller trilogy — Day Shift, Night Shift, Graveyard Shift — follows.
All four shows live on one channel: @TheExorcista. One soul counter. One tone. One canon.
The music is on Unikel Records. Press and media are handled by VUGA Media Group.
