The Cult that Inspired Twin Peaks

In Twin Peaks, there’s a place mentioned, called the Black Lodge, but what if I told you that the Black Lodge came from the beliefs of a very real (and relatively prominent) cult? Forgive that this video barely touches Twin Peaks itself, but I’m sure there’s inspirations I missed. There are more sources than I have in the credits and I’d be fine sharing them when asked, but the list of links long, so maybe in a google doc or tweets or something.
