    Ep 27: Aum Shinrikyo Cult

    Another cult for you this week dolls! This time, we head to Japan for a new religious movement and doomsday cult founded by Shoko Asahara in 1987. There is a lot to unpack in this episode, and as per usual it begins with a fairly innocent movement surrounding yoga, mediation and positive thinking. But of course, things turn terrible and we cover the cults ultimate demise due to a deadly Tokyo subway sarin attack in 1995. We might have a case of the giggles in this episode but make no mistake, this is a nasty one.

    Ep 25: The Family Murders (Part 1)

    *warning: violent acts against minors & severe depictions of mutilation - discretion is advised* Back to AUS this week and this time Adelaide dolls, and this case is a rough one. We dive into “The Family Murders” which follows a series of five murders in Australia, speculated to have been committed by a loosely connected group of individuals who came to be known as "The Family". The details are terrible and rough dolls so tread carefully. This group was believed to be involved in the kidnapping, drug-lacing and sexual abuse of a number of teenage boys and young men, as well as the torture, mutilation and murder of five young men aged between 14 and 25 in the 1970s and 1980s.
