22 Cultish Pics Taken at the Infamous Bohemian Grove

Bohemian Grove checks all the conspiratorial tin foil hat boxes: An elite membership including former politicians (including presidents), businessmen and journalists, a secretive California campground location protected by a legion of ex-military personnel, and tales of strange, annual plays that have featured burning owls, excessive flowers and Hollywood-grade sets.


While us mere mortals will likely never experience exactly what goes down in this Weirdotown, we have something at least: A few telling snapshots taken inside.
