Complete Three-Volume Set of Advanced Esoteric Dowsing Charts By Samaritan Foundation Cult Leader Linda Greene, Published The Year Before The Group’s Move To Wyoming
Anonymous [Greene, Linda]. Advanced Esoteric Dowsing Charts Book 1 – 3. Amber Press. Guthrie, Oklahoma. 1994.
Rare three volume set of idiosyncratic dowsing instructions written and published anonymously by the founder and leader of the 1980s and 90s cult known as The Samaritans Foundation or “The Monastery”, Linda Greene, remembered for her apocalyptic, channeled teachings.
Published by Amber Press, established by the cult to spread and sell Greene’s dowsing books, the “business” was based out of the group’s headquarters, a former 19th century territorial prison known as “The Black Jail” in Guthrie, Oklahoma, which was abandoned after intervention from local authorities the same year these books were released (the building, reportedly haunted to this day, was featured in a 2017 episode of the show Ghost Adventures, “Samaritan Cult House”).
The following year in 1995, having relocated to Wyoming, Greene is believed to have castrated and killed her “spiritual husband” filmmaker Allen Ross inspired by the paranoid belief he was trying to steal the Amber Press dowsing book business from her. In the year 2000, Ross’s body was eventually discovered in the crawl space of the home they had shared, but Greene died of liver failure in 2002 before the case could be brought to trial.
