CHAPTER

Undercover in Cults: From Recruitment to Control

Exploring the dynamics of cult leadership, recruitment tactics, and the deceptive nature of cults, this chapter vividly portrays the experiences of those involved in or affected by cults. From the personal account of growing up in a Jehovah's Witnesses family to the broader discussion on vulnerability and societal influences like the COVID-19 pandemic, the chapter delves into the psychological and emotional turmoil faced by ex-community members. The narrative culminates with a deep dive into the dark reality of sexual empowerment promises, legal battles, and power dynamics in unconventional groups.
