This week on Spooky Sleepover, we're coming to you LIVE from CrimeCon with true crime YouTube star Eleanor Neale! Join us as we count down some of the deadliest, most chilling cults in history... including the ones that still haunt us today. Plus, discover a so-called "community" that's still active... and might just be recruiting. Could you be part of it?
We had a great time recording with Eleanor at CrimeCon2025. Her section on the Twin Flame Universe was incredibly interesting. We reached out to the Twin Flame Universe for comment, and we just wanted to share their responses to some of the issues raised.
Jeff and Shaleia want to make it clear that they do not condone or encourage any illegal behaviour and have said that there have never been any criminal charges or evidence of criminal wrongdoing against Twin Flames Universe, Jeff and/or Shaleia.
In response to the suggestion that the TFU encourages stalking and harassment, they told us that they communicate frequently in Twin Flame Ascension School about the importance of having personal boundaries and honouring the boundaries of others however, they have said they cannot control the actions of others.
In response to the allegation that treatment at the TFU culminated in a former member taking their own life, they said that this was suggestion was incorrect. They said a member of the public who was already under medical care registered online for a free consultation with the Mind Alignment Process (MAP) - a separate company also owned by Jeff Divine - but never attended it. Sadly, this individual later died by suicide. MAP practitioners make it clear they are not medical professionals, and their services are not a substitute for therapy or medical care.
On the allegation that The TFU encourages members to transition into a different gender they told us that they never encourage any of their members to partake in any discussions or decisions that they are not comfortable with or that are not directly expressed by the students themselves. They concluded by saying that TFU is always respectful and conscientious of people’s individual choices and identities, and that their community is open and unapologetically supportive of all LGBTQ+ members.
