There's a show on CW called Supernatural. In one of the early seasons, there is an episode showing RJ at the crossroads. That leads to a whole mythology about Crossroads demons that run throughout the run of the show.
The basic premise of the lore is that you can make a pact with a demon at a crossroads. You then get what you want, but at the ten year mark, invisible hellhounds come track you down and kill you as they did RJ.
It is a pretty big plot point as one of the demons becomes the ruler of Hell after Lucifer is cast away. He's now the chief antagonist in the show. Killing a hellhound was also the first of three trials to close the gates of hell forever.
Full disclosure, I love this show. It is probably my favorite, although the last few seasons have dealt with heaven and hell as opposed to monster of the week stuff. There weren't too many religious overtones at the start beyond establishing that there are demons. It used to be about vampires and werewolves and such...the last three seasons, though have been angels vs. demons.
You can watch the first 7 seasons on Netflix and the 8th ends tomorrow.
