    This story is fucked up, when I first read this I got to about chapter 15 before I found out it was all real. That specific “school” only shut down in 2011 after their enrollment finally dropped off. No one in charge ever got in any trouble and presumably they all still in work in related fields.

      This story is still super vivid in my mind after over a decade and I’m super glad I read it through completely. It’s crazy but really fascinating.
