Uncover shocking facts about some of the most notorious cults to ever exist, such as:

  • What happens to doomsday cults when the world doesn't end
  • Why it can take years to bring the leaders to justice
  • The famous people in history that were closely involved with cults and their leaders

Perfect for people brand new to the topic or for those wanting to develop their knowledge, explore the hidden underbelly of cults with this introductory guide.
