Every town has a dark side.

In 1977, a nurse was sitting in a community hall, listening to a man preach about the end of the world coming.

She was depressed and, like a lot of people, feeling pretty lost in life.

This man, who was charismatic to the max, walked up to her after his speech was done,

looked directly into her eyes and told her that he knew how to help ease her pain for good.

All she had to do was quit her job, leave her family, and follow him out into the Canadian wilderness.

So she did, and so did a whole bunch of other people.

And over the course of the next decade, what would develop from there was one of the most depraved and vicious cults the world has ever seen, the details of which are hard to even put

into words.

Hey guys, it's Andrew, and welcome back for another episode of Everytown War today.

We're diving into the story of Roche the Ralt and the Anheil Kids,

one of the most brutal cults that we've had the misfortune witness. If you think you're

too smart to fall for something like this, well, you might want to think again. Because the scariest

part isn't what the Ralt did to his followers. It's how easily he convinced them all to let him do it.

So, let's head up to Canada now and go inside the An Hill Kids Cole.

Evil takes time to grow like anything else in this life it's a process that evolves over time you want to get in better shape you need to dedicate yourself to the gym for months and years to see

results if you want to get ahead in your career, it takes years to learn the ropes.

And evil is the same, and often it starts out small in the most normal of places, but,

if left unchecked, it metastasizes. And that's exactly what happened to a smart kid in Quebec.

Roche the Rawl was born in 1947 in St. Epiphany, Quebec.

He came from a large family, seven kids in total,

as folks raised them all to be good Catholics.
