On November 19, 1978, the world awoke to horror. In the steamy jungles of Guyana, more than 900 men, women, and children of the Peoples Temple lay dead — victims of the largest mass suicide in modern history. Some swallowed poison willingly, others were forced. All had fallen under the spell of the fanatical Reverend Jim Jones.
As the tropical heat accelerated decay, the U.S. military was summoned. Bodies were flown back to America, where autopsies unfolded in secret on a remote Air Force base. Official reports were filed. Photographs were locked away. And for decades, the most chilling evidence of Jonestown remained hidden from the public eye.
Until now.
When Colorado oddities dealer Chase Mehan stumbled upon a set of abandoned filing cabinets, he unearthed a trove of forbidden history: over 250 original 35mm forensic slides from the Jonestown Massacre. Among them — unseen images of the recovery mission, the rows of the dead, the desperate attempts at identification, and even the postmortem of Jim Jones himself.
Graphic. Disturbing. Unforgettable. This is Jonestown as you have never seen it before.
