The Vegas Ripper is a haunting episode Let Me Take You Higher, where Mr. Villain explores the spine-chilling legend of a cursed gambler from Las Vegas’s early days.

Over time, Sal transforms into the Vegas Ripper, a deranged, spectral figure who stalks the alleys and sewer tunnels beneath the Strip, preying on those who gamble their souls away. Tourists and locals alike have vanished, only to be found mutilated with playing cards stuffed in their mouths, their bodies marked with his trademark—the ace of spades.
