Scientology Armageddon | The Underground Bunker

Back in London for the next Scientology summit, featuring Russell Miller!

We’re on the move again, and this time it’s a return to London. It was just two months ago that we were here for a talk at Conway Hall with BBC reporter John Sweeney and our publisher, Humfrey Hunter.

Tomorrow, we will be on hand as the BBC-backed “My Scientology Film” with Louis Theroux debuts at […]

Another minor omen of the coming Scientology apocalypse appears in Florida

About a month ago, our Florida correspondent “L. Wrong” spotted an interesting sight. Outside of the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation in Orlando, a “For Rent” sign had sprung up.

We’re actually surprised that more Scientology outlets haven’t gone belly-up, considering the sharp drop in activity at them around the world. But here was some visual evidence […]

JIM CARREY’S SCIENTOLOGIST GIRLFRIEND ON ‘SRD’ WHEN SHE KILLED HERSELF: FRIENDS

Actor Jim Carrey and his girlfriend Cathriona White were spotted in New York earlier this year after the couple apparently started dating again following a breakup.

Scientology about to throw its Harlem party — and we need your eyes and ears!

Scientology has its soul duds on! These young staff members are in place in Harlem for tomorrow’s big block party, as David Miscavige opens yet another Ideal Org.

We’re very disappointed that we won’t be on the scene because of other obligations. We’d love to know if there are any New York correspondents who might want […]

TEN YEARS GONE: Shelly Miscavige, the wife Scientology’s leader wants us to forget

It was late summer 2005. That much our sources agree on. It might have been late August, or it might have been early September. But it was a full ten years ago, say our eyewitness sources, that Shelly Miscavige […]

Home, sweet ‘Freewinds’! We get a rare look inside a Scientology promotional seminar

For several years, we’ve posted fliers from Scientology’s many events that are put on by barnstorming “OT” ambassadors out to sell something to compliant church members. But it’s not very often that we get a report on what it’s like to attend such a gathering.

A couple of years ago, we were fortunate to hear from […]

Scenes from the increasingly desperate straits Scientology finds itself in

We had a lot of fun on Monday revisiting perhaps the high point in the careers of Scientology leader David Miscavige and his actor-lieutenant, Tom Cruise, when they opened a new church in Madrid in 2004. Since then, the two have been battered and bruised with years of brutal press accounts of how Miscavige physically […]

Do Scientologists consider L. Ron Hubbard God? Part Two of the Aaron Smith-Levin podcast

Jeffrey Augustine continues with part two of his podcast with Aaron Smith-Levin. He sent us this synopsis…

In Part 2, Aaron Smith-Levin continues his fascinating and wide-ranging excursion into the world of Scientology from the eyes of a Sea Org member. Aaron opens by describing how he realized that the highly dysfunctional operating conditions of the […]

Hey, Star magazine, why is Tom Cruise afraid of Aussie journo Bryan Seymour?

Back on July 2, your proprietor asked his colleagues for some help.

Now, with so many […]
