4 True Sinister Cult Stories You Need to Hear

[@prisontv3299]

I listen to these with the headphones in every night to fall asleep to, they give me the best nightmares 💯

[@puppydog8977]

As much as I love listening to you read these stories, I fall asleep within minutes. I’ve now put you on repeat so I can hear a few stories before visiting the land of nod … 😂😂 a cheaper alternative to “sleep by wine”

[@dertywhiteboy8944]

Yeah me to ,there’s a lot that I have to go back and listen while I drive so I can finish it to the end

Ahhh, Joel's voice in my ear is like heaven. He could talk about rocks and I would listen.

[@Adrienne-i1m]

He could literally talk about sh*t and I'd be all like . . . Uh huh, go on!

[@borostergirl60]

He could read the phone book and I would listen raptly

[@amandaredd3057]

If he gets the death penalty, she certainly should too. Lori was their actual mother! Either way, there's a special place in hell for Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell. Absolute monsters

[@ognjen8970]

Huh, if anyone would ask me, i would simply close them into asylum, but punished, non the less, depends from monetary to jailtime, every single one which have spoken with them for longer than 5 minutes, and havent reported them like: "im tired of explaining whats wrong, sent a social worker or cop to talk to them for 5 minutes."

[@shananigans6154]

I’ve been to Tama-Re!!!! Me and my friends thought it was a good idea to go out there drunk in the middle of the night in 2001. We were told if we tried to enter we would be shot. So we stayed on the main road. But we saw everything. The pyramid the sphinx the poles. It was insane!!!!

Back in 2017 I had just started a rewatch of Smallville. I had mentioned, to a friend, the character Chloe, related to an episode I'd watched, and that''s when he told me about the whole cult thing.

These stories are perfect examples of why we need "ol sparky".

[@HeathOakrayzy]

Yours is the best channel for listening to stories out there, also thank you for showing the square and compass as the occult symbol that it is, people need to awaken to the absolute threat freemasonry (luceferianism) poses to the world.

[@TriciaMckague]

My friends and I,when we were stupid, drunk kids, snuck into a Masonic Temple. The things we found in there were very strange and creepy. F-in weirdos.

[@kymberlyn420]

Sweet thumbnail, bro.

[@noneyourbiz8886]

I can’t tell anyone at home how I’m feeling because they rely on me. I must say it somewhere tho. I feel like I’m drowning. I’ve had therapy and medication but it’s not helping anymore. I don’t want to be here. I will tho because my loved ones need me and I never want to hurt them by doing something stupid and transferring my pain to them. I know how it feels as my big brother took his life in 2023 and our family hadn’t been the same. I just needed to say it and get it out of my head. My heart hurts. My soul hurts and I’m tired. Thank you. Even if no one reads this. I’m glad I said it. I don’t have any friends.

[@TribbleClef-ii6lf]

Hey I’m a full time caregiver to my mother and I have to balance being a mother (kids are grown but at home ) a wife and a good daughter who won’t abandon my mother to some cold “skilled” nursing home. I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia as well as PTSD from DV and I still have to live with my abusers and my mother was neglectful and I was a victim of munchousens by proxy by being barraged as a small child to teens because of my mothers mental health issues that were undiagnosed- I am on meds and in therapy too and I hear you and I know your pain and suffering and anguish. I don’t know your situation but there is help out there for caregivers, through social services or idk but my mother is also a veteran so I got help from the VA I just started telling her nurses and doctors that come to the house that I can’t do it anymore and there is such a thing as caregivers fatigue and you can sometimes get a respite where they come in and take over for you before you end up in a hospital yourself. I care a lot about you we are in same boat and I wish we could talk more because even just saying the crazy stuff in your head to a total stranger who isn’t going to judge you for saying it because they have been where you are - helps- and don’t I know about just downloading into a KZbin comment section because it’s somewhere “safe” to say things. And when I say the buttersock cult is a loving place it is I have not encountered any trolls here for truth. I want you to be okay friend because that little evil voice that tells you to just end it and be at peace gets louder and louder until it’s thundering inside your head making it hard to sleep ( I can’t sleep unless Joel or Mr Ballen is in my ear I sleep with ear buds because even with the “dark” content it’s better than what my head does left on its own to wander ) I want you to know that beyond your family - I love you. You are enough just as you are. You are worth it. The work in therapy is worth it because you have value immeasurable friend. Your life is meant to touch other lives. On December 16, just over a month ago I lost a dear dear friend who was a medic who was on the beach on DDay and the battle for Okinawa and if I learned anything from him , Jack, is that every single human life has value. He suffered from ptsd and at one time he was asked to do an interview and he was feeling tired and wanted to go home but he said no I guess I’ll do the interview and later he was told that 5 veterans were thinking of ending their lives but Jack changed their minds and to Jack it meant the world because from an 18yr old kid to a 98yr old man all he wanted to do was heal and after the war he wanted everyone to know they are loved and needed and I feel like I looked back at comments because Jack somehow told me to so that I could tell you - I love you and if you need anything please respond to this and if I can help you I will I promise with all my heart friend. You are not alone. ❤

Could you please add time stamps?

[@bubzilla6137]

He did. They're in the description. But because I'm a sweetie pie, I'll add them here for you as well... Story 1►00:00​ Story 2►06:45​ Story 3►17:30​ Story 4►43:03​ Every video he adds them. More often than not, you have to click on "more" after clicking "description" and then you have to scroll down. How far down varies from video to video but time stamps are always there somewhere. Hope this helps! 🙂🙂🙂 Oh yeah! Also, most videos have built in "chapters." If you move the little red dot along the little red line at the bottom of the video, you will usually see "breaks" in the red line. Those are where one story ends and a new story begins.

[@g1rl_veteran]

The first story is interesting because I live 24/7 in a dom/sub relationship by choice. How do I know it's my choice? Because I came to understand that I truly wanted that life so I sought out a man who identifies as a dom (dominant). He is my owner, he calls the shots but he earned my submission by earning my trust.

[@havingfunisnthard]

Is it choice when our entire society conspires for women to seek this arrangement, and has seemingly since the dawn of time. Lambs convincing ourselves we enjoy being in the jaws of lions.

[@SuperStrangSshadow]

Some stories are very overexplained.

[@al1383]

[@donniev8181]

The overwhelming majority of people on this planet are going to have a serious rude awakening after they've taken their last breath. Two choices, either God created everything or everything created itself from absolutely nothing.

[@nilsekholm7196]

The Nine Angles story sounds to me to be adjacent with the more racist political side of the Norwegian Black Metal scene (read: Lords of Chaos). I hate that music I like is associated with this sort of thing😢

[@shaneb6210]

The actual name of the religion is Roman Catholicism so that means that the Pope should come on here and give a story about how he became the greatest leader of the largest cult in the world

[@kerriwightman3141]

As a Catholic myself, (non practicing) I can't disagree. I think just let people believe what they want if it's not harming anyone. Look at Scientology. Each to their own I suppose

​@@pigeon__admirermaybe some people prefer LDS

[@daviedood2503]

I think a cult could actually be pretty gnarly if u do it right. 🤔 I mean if u take out all the weird crap that ppl have a problem with.

[@pigeon__admirer]

Im not sure if you understand the definition of a cult. “A cult is described as a system or group of people who practice excessive devotion to a figure, object, or belief system. Its characteristics include having a leader that preaches an explicit belief system or ideology and who is followed by unquestioning believers.” That is inherently problematic

[@daviedood2503]

@pigeon__admirer ok, there's many belief systems that are vastly different than "the norm". U have people who don't believe Jesus was real and it's just "stories" passed down. U keep passing a story down for 3 thousand years, it definitely shifts as to what actually happened. U have people who are devoted to the president of the United States. I think you assume a cult is "ALWAYS" some wicked wild group that just corrupts peoples minds into doing evil and nothing but evil.
