In this gripping episode, we dive deep into the tragic and shocking events of Jonestown, the site of one of the most infamous mass suicides in modern history. Led by the charismatic and controversial figure Jim Jones, the People's Temple became a symbol of extreme manipulation, faith, and betrayal. Join us as we explore the rise of the cult, the sinister hold Jones had over his followers, and the devastating massacre that left over 900 people dead. With survivor testimonies, historical context, and a closer look at the psychology behind cults, this episode sheds light on a dark chapter in American history.
