A little-known Victorian sex cult called the Agapemonites, based in Spaxton, Somerset, forced members to never leave and hand over fortunes. Leader Henry James Prince, who claimed to be the Holy Spirit, conducted sex ceremonies where his wife watched him impregnate other women. Many members took their own lives. The chapel is now an Airbnb, but its disturbing past continues to draw international interest, according to author Stuart Flinders.
