Purpose The Jonestown massacre of 1978 was the largest such event in modern history; it assumes the status of a prototype in many discussions of cult dynamics and mass suicide. This paper aims to make the case that Jonestown should be memorialised and made into a dark tourism attraction. Design/methodology/approach This paper is principally the outcome of secondary research conducted over a number of years on the theme of dark tourism. The paper also benefited from direct interviews and conversations with political and ex-military personnel in Guyana who were in some way involved with Jonestown. Findings The research establishes that Jonestown remains a matter of great sensitivity and even national embarrassment, with many in the tourism sector reluctant to highlight what they regard as a very negative association, in the market, of Guyana with Jonestown and Jonestown only. Practical implications Expressed in context, the paper discusses the place of Jonestown in dark tourism and proposes an operational formula by which the semiotic of Jonestown, as contained in the tourist narrative, transforms tourism into catharsis. Originality/value For the author, Jonestown is tourism-imperative because not much longer after that apocalyptic event, the “Jonestown massacre” became a reference in the discourse on dark tourism. Jonestown is too large and archetypal an event to escape research and discussion of its place in the realm of dark tourism. This paper therefore explores, from both theoretical and policy perspectives, the ways in which the narratives of dark tourism can serve to expiate guilt by confronting it and therefore still deserve a place in the tourism imaginary of 2025. As such, the paper should be of value to not only scholars and researchers but also those engaged in tourism planning and destination management.

<p>In addition to being remembered in what became known as the “Jonestown Massacre,” where more than 900 members of an American cult died in a mass suicide-murder under the direction of their leader in 1978, Guyana continues to receive global and local attention for the prevalence in suicide. The 2014 WHO report named Guyana as the country with the highest suicide rate per capita globally with recent suicide statistics showing 272 reports over a thirty-month period. <br />Recently, the incidence of murder suicide has gained a lot of media attention, and seems to be linked to “crimes of passion” or intimate partner conflict, with men very often being the perpetrators. Particularly, East Indian men and young men are more prone to commit suicide, Through the analysis of both police and media reports and other literature, this study uses mixed methodologies in analyzing the number of murder -suicide over the last five years, characteristics of the perpetrators inclusive of ethnicity, relationships between killers and victims and the method used in the deaths in Guyana. The study paves the way for more in-depth analysis of the phenomenon. Finally, the paper concludes with a presentation of its findings and possible recommendations.</p>

AbstractWe study a transcript of discourse recorded on an open mic during the mass suicide/murder of 909 members of a religious community in Jonestown in 1978. The ‘Jonestown massacre’ is often cited in psychology textbooks as a warning example of how powerful situations and charismatic leaders can lead ordinary people to extreme and destructive behaviours. These accounts suggest that individuals lose control of reason and will such that their behaviour becomes subject to outside control. We develop an alternative explanation of the mass killing as identity‐based collective action. Our analysis shows how a shared understanding of the community's situation and the options available to them were constructed and contested in discourse. We demonstrate how Jim Jones served as impresario, entrepreneur and champion of identity, recognizing his followers' agency, initiating collective meaning‐making and mobilizing action. Jones engaged his followers in jointly constructing the situation as hopeless, developing a shared view of their situated social identity and collectively formulating the identity‐congruent solution of collective suicide as a hopeful act of collective agency. Our analysis points to the importance of addressing the conditions that sustain narratives of collective hopelessness and helping groups successfully choose non‐extremist pathways out of hopelessness.

Abstract In his book Why Study Religion? ethicist and philosopher Richard B. Miller criticizes the discipline of religious studies for being negligent about the fundamental goal of its academic pursuits. In this review essay, the authors challenge Miller’s diagnosis by arguing that scholars of religion do share a common goal and that the state of affairs bemoaned by Miller is healthier than he admits. The essay raises doubts concerning his selection of six “methodologies” that supposedly represent the field and it challenges Miller’s interpretation of Jonathan Z. Smith’s famous comparative analysis of the Jonestown massacre. The essay proposes a different distinction between goals and values in research and critically reviews the four goals/values proposed by Miller, three of which appear to represent business as usual. The essay argues that Miller’s proposed teleology is suspicious, not as innovative as he seems to think, and maybe even a retrogression. Finally, the essay faults Miller’s undertheorized conception of religion.

This chapter focuses on The Sacrament (West, 2013) as a case study, and uses this film to examine how the found footage horror subgenre negotiates the limits of traumatic representation. This chapter outlines several limitations of trauma theory in relation to genre cinema, and through use of Adam Lowenstein’s (2005) concept of the ‘allegorical moment’, investigates how allegory is complicated and then departed from within The Sacrament through its creation of a fictional visual accompaniment to a very real horror. Close analysis of selected scenes from The Sacrament and their relationship to the ‘Jonestown Death Tape’ feature in this chapter’s discussion of the film’s movement towards explicit, rather than implicit, representations of historical trauma, and how this eschewal of allegory may have impacted its critical reception. While advancing the idea of the ‘post-allegorical moment’, this chapter then highlights the importance of witnessing in found footage horror cinema, before detailing how The Sacrament recreates the specific video journalism aesthetic of Vice Media, and how this lends a sense of endangerment and immersion. This chapter closes with a discussion of the resonance of The Jonestown Massacre trauma and anxieties around it within contemporary America.

This chapter begins by observing that California has long attracted those in search of a ‘fresh start’, opportunity, physical renewal and spiritual fulfilment. It explores texts in which these long-standing associations become actively dystopian. The chapter begins with a detailed discussion of the relationship between California and ‘cult’ organisations and an analysis of the ways in which the dystopian flipside of the ‘hippie dream’ emerged from the late 1960s onwards. Then it discusses discuss Our Lady of Darkness, in which San Francisco is depicted as a primal locale which particularly welcoming to charismatic charlatans. Fritz Leiber’s debt to Clark Ashton Smith, is discussed, as is the importance of San Francisco’s unique topography. Philip Kaufman’s 1978 version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers is described as a classic urban nightmare lent further resonance because of the ways in which the film anticipates the real-life horrors which would soon beset the city: the Jonestown Massacre, and the murders of Mayor George Moscone and LGBT rights activist Harvey Milk in City Hall (an important setting in the film).

The chapter begins with an analysis of The Invitation (2015). The film evokes the 1969 Manson Family murders and the 1978 Jonestown Massacre in a manner which underlines its subtly metafictional resonance. It is as much a film about the long-standing association between California and dangerous cult organisations as it is about a fictionalised version of one of these groups. Here, the qualities which make California an attractive locale for those seeking spiritual fulfilment again make it the perfect breeding ground for a cult which promises ‘utopia’ but instead delivers madness, destruction, and death. This is also the case in 1BR (2019) in which a vulnerable young woman is taken captive by a cult which promises to re-invent the concept of ‘community’. Finally, it is argued that The Circle by Dave Eggers builds upon earlier iterations of the ‘California as Poisoned Eden’ trope. Here, Northern California is the headquarters of a powerful tech company which ultimately comes to resemble the cults previously discussed in this section. Here, the supposedly progressive ‘technological utopia’ which is one of the newer manifestations of the ‘Californian dream’ is a dehumanizing and unstoppable nightmare.
