Horrifying cult ‘massacre video’ shows final moments of brainwashed disciples sharing last drink with their mass-murdering leader before they were killed with lethal injections

On October 5, 1994, in two sleepy villages in the Swiss mountains, a series of horrific discoveries were made.
What at first appeared to be unconnected fires at a farm house in the hamlet of Cheiry and at ski chalets over an hour away in Salvan was soon revealed to be something far more sinister.
Dozens of bodies belonging to men, women and children were uncovered by first responders – rows of charred remains laid out neatly in a scene one medic described as ‘apocalyptic’.
Almost 4,000 miles away in Canada, a similarly gruesome fate had befallen a family-of-three, whose mutilated remains were uncovered the day before in a burned out house in rural Quebec.
The thread tying these mysterious deaths together, investigators soon learned, was a shadowy international sect known as the Order of the Solar Temple.
All of the dead belonged to the Knights Templar-inspired cult, which instilled its followers with the belief that by taking their own lives they would ‘transit’ to the star Sirius and be welcomed into a glorious afterlife.
The cult leaders and their most loyal followers followed through on this twisted doctrine, enjoying a final dinner together before injecting their children and themselves with a lethal poison.
Horrifying footage, referred to as ‘the massacre video’, captures the final moments of the cult’s inner sanctum – with leaders and their brainwashed disciples merrily toasting wine and singing before being administered a deadly concoction and ‘falling asleep’.
The cult’s last moments were filmed by Joseph Di Mambro, the Order’s 70-year-old founder, who swindled fortunes out of hundreds of followers and was ultimately responsible for the deaths of dozens of innocent people.
Now, a BBC documentary has shared testimony from journalists and investigators who worked on the case, as well as former members who escaped the warped cult, shedding new light on the dark world of the ‘Apocalyptic Order’.
