Welcome to HIGHER THAN TRUTH, a long-form series that takes deep dives into mysteries and urban legends to reveal the forgotten corners of history that influenced the apocalyptic conspiracy theories of today. Each season we'll examine one central mystery and then slowly peel back the layers to—hopefully—get to the real story.
Season 1 tackles the urban legend of MURPHY RANCH, a mysterious property in Santa Monica, California allegedly once owned by Nazi occultists during World War II. To find out whether there's any merit to that unusual accusation, we'll have to look at the history of Murphy Ranch itself—as well as the strangely intertwined history of religious cults and politics that could have motivated the property's construction in the first place.
There's lots to uncover. Let's get started!
