Discover how Anne turned lives upside down and enforced strict rules, forcing children to look identical and treating her followers with chilling control. And as we peel back the layers of her twisted vision, we’re pairing it with a classic pineapple upside-down cake—a dessert as deceptive as Anne’s carefully constructed facade.
