Leonard Lake: Project Miranda – The Blueprint for Captivity and Control

In this disturbing episode of Among Monsters, host Damien Vale exposes the cold, calculated evil of Leonard Lake — a former Marine turned survivalist who masterminded one of the most horrifying torture and murder operations in American history. Inspired by dystopian fiction and his own apocalyptic fantasies, Lake created Project Miranda, a sick plan to enslave women in a homemade bunker buried deep in the foothills of Northern California. With chilling precision, Lake and his sadistic accomplice Charles Ng abducted families, killed the men and children, and kept the women alive for rape, torture, and filmed degradation inside their concrete chamber of horrors. What investigators uncovered on Lake’s Wilseyville property — human remains, personal diaries, and videotaped brutality — painted a portrait of a man who didn't just kill... he built a world for it. Damien Vale walks listeners through the twisted psychology, survivalist obsession, and catastrophic legacy of a man whose dream of control became a national nightmare.
