NEW SEASON S5 E1 – What Lies Beneath

Welcome to a new season of American Nightmares!

A pristine neighborhood in Ogden, Utah hides something rotten. When a couple moves into Northwood subdivision in 1981, they’re welcomed with free landscaping, shared supplies, and a sense of family – until the community’s leader, Arvin Shreeve, reveals a secret doctrine of polygamy and sexual manipulation.

Nearly a decade later, on July 9, 1991, a woman walks into the Weber County Attorney’s Office and confesses to detective Mike King that she was part of the Zion Society, a cult she says was abusing children.
