#252 The Heaven's Gate Cult

Heaven's Gate was an American UFO religious cult based out of San Diego, California, founded in 1974 and led by Marshall Applewhite and Bonnie Nettles.  On March 26, 1997, police discovered the bodies of 39 members of the group, who had participated in a mass suicide in order to reach what they believed was an extraterrestrial spacecraft following the Hale–Bopp comet. Just before the suicide, the group's website was updated with the message: "Hale-Bopp brings closure to Heaven's Gate ... Our 22 years of classroom here on planet Earth is finally coming to conclusion – 'graduation' from the Human Evolutionary Level."    Check out our other shows!: Cryptic Soup w/ Thena & Kylee   Strange & Unexplained   True Crime Guys YouTube   EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS:   https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions   True Crime Guys Music: True Crime Guys Music on Spotify   OhMyGaia.com Code: Creeper       Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Patreon.com/sandupodcast Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com   Sources:   https://www.heavensgate.com/   https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/heavens-gate-cult-members-found-dead   https://academic.oup.com/jcmc/article/3/3/JCMC334/4584381   https://www.sdsheriff.gov/bureaus/media-relations/common-questions/heaven-s-gate-case   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaven%27s_Gate_(religious_group)   Heaven's Gate Cult Initiation Tape Part 1
