Vária has, by her own admission, started a cult

Flower crowns, bonfires, sauna, murder-mystery and what she calls pagan rituals. The house holds thirty.

Vária has, by her own cheerful admission, started a cult in Helsinki. The programme, as reported to this desk: flower crowns, bonfires, sauna, a murder-mystery, and what she describes, with no visible concern for how it reads in print, as “pagan rituals.”

The house holds thirty. Recruitment is, apparently, open.

In her exact words: “anybody who wants to join a cult, welcome.”

The Rania Post takes no position on Nordic paganism, but notes for the record that this is the most transparent leadership a cult has ever displayed, and frankly we respect it.
