On the final part of Heaven's Gate, we discuss Heaven's Gate inception and the mass suicide that took place in 1997, resulting in 39 deaths. All members were wearing the same signature outfit of a long sleeved black shirt, black pants, and new black Nike tennis shoes. Their hair was cropped close, and their shirts had patches that read "Heavens' Gate Away Team." We learn how the bodies were found and what Heaven's Gate official stance on Suicide is. We discuss what some ex-members have to say and what the group is doing now.
