Welcome to our 5 year anniversary, 5-part series re-release! This month, we're bringing back Psychedelic Nightmare, a podcast series on the impact of the CIA's LSD-fueled experiments on mind control, MKUltra, & the domino effect it (in)directly created worldwide. --------------------------------------------Part 5: Tokyo's Christcw: abuse, terrorism, sexual violence, death Our 5th and final part of this series covers Aum Shinrikyo, the cult responsible for the Tokyo Sarin Gas attacks of 1995 & it’s leader, Shoko Asahara. Here, we explore Shoko's childhood, the development of Aum Shinrinkyo while also delving deep into its doomsday conspiracies that combined a hodge-podge of religious philosophies with Nostradamus-esque beliefs. We touch Hinduism, malignant narcissism in cult leaders, and highlight survivor stories and PTSD from the subway attack which ended up killing 14 civilians and injuring over 5,000.You'll see how this story links back to all four others, creating an unlikely and disturbing tie that spans four decades, three cults and three countries while involving multiple government agencies and of course Albert Hoffman's Problem Child -- LSD.  <a href='https://docs.google.com/document/d/1g8Xz07yyCla7jJw8bIOJAlcdw3UtV0NfPWHvhyTrszo/edit?usp=sharing'>References</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1299307/open_sms">Reach out to us with thoughts, comments, questions or collab requests!</a>Theme Song Title: Creepy Mood | Artist Name: Oleg Fedak <a rel="payment" href="https://www.patreon.com/unpackingtheeerie">Support the show</a>From October to December 2025 we will be re-releasing our favorite series' - A Lethal Location and A Psychedelic Nightmare.
