The Dirty Cult Killer - The Pazuzu Algarad Story
13 Dec 2025
What led to Pazuzu Algarad's disturbing lifestyle?
So this guy doesn't bathe or doesn't brush his teeth, but that's not even the worst thing about him. Now the guy's name is Pazuzu, and Pazuzu is around 29 years old when this story starts, and he's living in North Carolina, and Pazuzu, he's a very strange guy.
Like he is obsessed with Satanism and other kinds of dark mythology, and on top of being strange, he also has some serious mental health issues and addiction issues. And so one day in 2007, he decides that he is done taking his medication for his mental illness. He's just going to stop cold turkey.
And because he has a bad habit of drinking a ton of alcohol and doing meth all the time, this makes his mental health issues a hundred times worse. And from here, Pazuzu's life just kind of keeps spiraling downward. Like, he's partying all the time, he's drinking alcohol and doing drugs, sometimes he'll do really hard drugs like smack. Not only that, but he also stops practicing good hygiene.
Like, according to his friends, he showers maybe once a year, he brushes his teeth maybe once a year, because he has this weird idea that cleaning himself will wash away his natural immunities or something like that. Now, despite being around 29, 30 years old, Pazuzu still lives at his mom's house with her. And he absolutely trashes his mom's house.
Like he's got friends over all day and they like party all the time every day. Like, there are no rules, and either he or the people hanging out will throw trash everywhere, they'll just like smash shit that's lying around, they'll straight up pee on the carpet, sometimes they'll just straight up poop on the carpet.
So this place is a total dump, and it smells terrible because there's poop on the carpet, nobody cleans up anything. Really, these people are disgusting. And Pazuzu's mom doesn't seem to care. She just like lets them do it. And on top of all that, they have a bunch of pets who live there too. And these pets all pee and shit on the floor. And this goes on for a few years.
These stank ass hippies who hang out in Pazuzu's poop house, they just sit around all day and do hard drugs. And over time, they kind of become like loyal followers of his. And they accept him as this sort of dark spiritual leader, like a guy they look up to. It's a bit cult-like. But then, around 2009, this guy shows up. His name's Josh.
And Josh, he starts partying in this house with the others. And Josh, he's a nice enough guy, but to the others, he's an outsider. And he doesn't exactly look up to Pazuzu like the other guys do. And Pazuzu, he doesn't like this at all. Like he doesn't like that this Josh guy is someone that he can't control. So he decides that he's going to make Josh miserable.
And one day when Josh is at the house partying with the others, allegedly Pazuzu forces him down into the basement. And there he ties him up. Apparently he had heard that Josh is some kind of snitch or something like that. And so Pazuzu just leaves him there and he basically starves him for days, allegedly. This is what a witness claimed.
