Revisit the infamous Jonestown massacre in the new trailer for an upcoming docuseries that examines the final hours of Jim Jones’ cult in Guyana.

Peoples Temple founder Jim Jones is pictured in a family portrait with his wife, Marceline Jones, their adopted children and his sister-in-law with her three children, in California, 1976.

“There’s not a day that goes by that you don’t think of some parts of it,” one of the survivors says in the trailer for the docuseries. The three-episode docuseries, premiering June 17 on Hulu and August 14 on Nat Geo, opens with California’s Rep. Leo Ryan’s ill-fated visit to the Peoples Temple cult amid abuse allegations, setting off a series of events that further enflame the already-paranoid Jones.

The docuseries comes from Emmy Award-winning 72 Films’ executive producers David Glover and Mark Raphael, BAFTA Award-winning director Marian Mohamed, along with Academy Award-winning filmmakers Dan Lindsay and T.J. Martin.
