The Cult Files explores the history, features and beliefs of seventeen cults through the ages. Riveting, sometimes amusing, often horrifying stories show the inside workings of these groups, from well-known cults such as Aum Shinrikyo, whose followers killed twelve people in a poison gas attack on the Tokyo subway to lesser known ones such as the Ant Hill Kids or the Church of God with Signs Following. The full story of these cults is told for the first time in this book.
