They have reunited to share their journey with you while unravelling the haunting tales of cults from around the world, shedding light on the warning signs that can help prevent others from falling into their grasp.Copyright The Cult Next Door

    Welcome back for a spooky episode that digs into the absolute dread of our childhood Halloweens!We kick off with teachings warning that a "prowling lion" (Satan) is out to devour us, and that our children must not "identify with the pagan holiday" of trick-or-treating.

    We then reveal the extreme fear culture we were raised in, where everything from an antique ring to a shadow in the yard was proof of demons.The irony is strong as we contrast that paranoia with our current, joyous obsession with spooky season (complete with elaborate costumes and yard decorations!). Hear the deeply personal stories of being taught to "rebuke the demons" in dark rooms as kids.

    Join us for a bizarre, healing, and honest look at how one group taught that, for them, Everything is Demons!

  • Halloween Teaser: Everything Is Demons
    Oct 22 2025
    😱 Scary news... but only for a week!

    We’re taking a short break from releasing episodes, but don’t worry — we’ll be back next week with our Halloween special: Everything Is Demons. 👻

    In this one, we’re diving into the fear, superstition, and control that came from being told the world was full of demons — and how that shaped the way we saw everything from movies to music to holidays.
    So stay tuned, and maybe keep a light on… this one gets a little eerie. 🖤

  • Ep.69: "He Ran Away From Me"

    In this final part of Mindy’s story, the truth finally comes crashing down—and her father literally runs from it. What began as suspicion turns into undeniable proof of a shocking betrayal: her dad, the pastor, pursuing a relationship with his own daughter-in-law just months after her mother’s death.

    From the bizarre family “meeting” meant to confront him, to his financial exploitation of a vulnerable relative, Mindy walks us through the unbelievable events that followed. It’s a story about confronting power, surviving spiritual abuse, and reclaiming your voice when the people who should’ve protected you become the ones you need protection from.

    This one is raw, surreal, and, somehow, still hopeful. #CultNextDoor #Podcast #ExCultMember #CrusadeChurch #TheLoveMove #EndOfTheCult #BreakingFree #SpiritualAbuse #CultSurvivor #ExposingTheTruth #CourageToLeave #CultStories #LifeAfterCult #EscapingControl #TrueStory

Content: The prerogative of a man with narcissistic tendencies and a serious God Complex: salvation for the elect and multiple deaths for the worldly. Found this podcast while looking for new cult audiobooks. Usually I don’t listen to podcasts on audible, but I’m so glad I took the leap of faith. This is a raw and deeply personal account of the Lasiter family members as they try to expound on what life was like under their father’s regime of control, and life after their religious, social, and familial selves fall away from it. I look forward to future episodes with anxious excitement. A mixture of wanting to know more while being so disturbed by the reality that “Crusade Church” is a very real and active “Google-able” church.

Quality: the audio is fantastic quality. I listen to everything on 1.5x typically. But had to tone it down to 1.4x for the speed of the speakers. When the discussion gets to a particularly excited level, it may be necessary to slow it down in order to not miss anything.
