What makes people join a cult, and what makes it so difficult to leave?
The Psychology of Cults takes audiences beyond the headlines and deep inside the world of high-control groups. Hosted by internationally recognized criminal investigator Mike King, this gripping live event explores how cults form, why people are drawn to them, and the psychological tactics leaders use to gain loyalty, isolate members and maintain control.
Drawing on examples including Jonestown, Heaven’s Gate, NXIVM and the FLDS, Mike examines the manipulation, coercion and abuse that can take place behind closed doors. The evening also looks beyond the most infamous cases to reveal how similar methods of influence can appear in relationships, workplaces, wellness communities and social movements.
Through real-life cases, expert insight and audience discussion, you will learn how to recognize warning signs, better understand the people who become involved in high-control groups, and discover what it can take to break free.
Fascinating, unsettling and deeply relevant, The Psychology of Cults offers a revealing look at one of society’s most complex and misunderstood phenomena.
