Ep. 154- Cult: Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh aka "Osho" and Sheela's Shenanigans- Part II

Ash and Caitlyn from PNW Haunts and Homicides are back with the second part of their Rajneesh/"Osho" collab! In this episode the gals take you to the giant ranch in Oregon where "the orange people" came in hoards to live with the glorious Bhagwan. Insanity with Rajneesh' inner circle, mainly Sheela, ensues in the small town of Antelope, Oregon, and beyond. We're talking mass poisonings, planned assassinations, using people experiencing homelessness to try to gain political power, elaborate wire-tappings and a lot of laughing gas. Get ready y'all, this one is wild.
