You’ll arrive full of hope. You’ll plant crops, sing songs, raise your children. And slowly, you’ll start to feel the walls close in.Through gentle, immersive narration, this historical story guides you step by step through the psychological descent of Jonestown. From community to control, from sermons to sirens, you’ll experience how the line between devotion and fear disappears—and why, by the time anyone realized what was happening, it was already far too late.This is not a horror story. It’s a quiet one. A true one. And like so many people who lived it, you won’t know when it stopped being a dream.If you're still awake by the end—thank you for listening.#Jonestown #DrowsyHistorian #SleepHistory #PeoplesTemple #JimJones #HistoryForSleep #SleepPodcast #DarkHistory #PsychologicalControl #CultHistory #TrueStory #SleepNarrative #QuietHorror
