It's time to get comfy, cozy AND cool with some seriously DARK cults!
This week Ashley is BUSY GETTING MARRIED so Lauren is joined by a very special surprise guest-- our resident CULT expert and fashionista- you remember him best from the Queen Mary investigation- TYLER SCHUELKE!
This week Lauren and Tyler have some VERY disturbing, creepy, crawly, sick and twisted CULTS. Lauren brings us a somewhat well known man, with a possibly less well known cult. Henry Lee Lucas, also known as The Confession Killer, who CLAIMED to have taken the lives of over 3,000 people was ALSO involved with a cult that... may have never existed? It's kind of like ANTIFA.. a lot of people have stories to tell.. but theres no... actual.. proof.
And Tyler bring us the story of the Cult of the Black Jesus out of Papua New Guinea! It never had an official name but the leader, Steven Tari, referred to himself as black Jesus.. so what else would we call it? This monster was a Lutheran bible student who not only said he was Christ, but murdered, raped many women he kept as sex slaves, and was even accused of cannibalism before his grisly end... but I'll let Tyler give you the creepy deets.
They wrap up the episode with a really compelling conversation about the value of a show like Netflix's DAHMER but also the cringeworthy-ness of people who treat serial killers like celebrities.
