In the late 1970s, a strange group of folks arrived on Vashon Island, WA. Seemingly overnight, 60 men, women and children set up military tents and portapotties and got to work transforming 58 acres of pristine coastal forest into a religious commune.  Under the direction of their charismatic leader Lou, and his surly wife Mary Lou, the Wesleyan Cult built homes and a life for their community on their private compound.  Rumors swirled around town as islanders wondered what this new group was up to. As we find out this week, it was much weirder and more sinister than anyone could've imagined.
In this week's episode, we have the absolute honor and privilege of interviewing Deb Donner, survivor of the Wesleyan Cult. Deb will walk us through her experience with the cult from the beginnings of the group, to the cult fleeing Illinois and arriving on Vashon, all the way to her courageous escape. Please join us in bearing witness to Deb's incredible story of survival and strength.
Happy Haunting!
