Part 7/13:
One of the most shocking stories involves Cat Torres, a so-called spiritual guru who turned her online following into a criminal enterprise. Starting as an influencer promoting crystals, tarot, and self-help, Torres leveraged these platforms to manipulate young, impressionable women into her cult-like coven.
She built her following by claiming divine communication, spiritual trance-writing, and supernatural powers, but these claims were part of her extensive scheme. Former friends, roommates, and victims describe her as a narcissist who used her influence to control and exploit followers—confiscating passports, forcing women into sex work, and keeping them in hypnotic states through spells, drugs, and rituals in her occult room in Texas.
