As the victim lay dying, the believers would begin with the bloodletting ceremony. If anyone doubted her in any way, she forced the believers in her cult to beat and set fire to the doubters. In fact, Solís started practicing a blood ritual with unbelievers.

Not only did the villagers believe the outlandish tale, but Solís, a religious fanatic, also soon started believing the delusions herself. Coatlicue was an Aztec goddess known as the mother of the gods, and goddess of the sun, moon, and stars. Solís informed the town that she was the reincarnated goddess Coatlicue. The ever-so-crafty Hernández brothers made a spectacular show of the goddess's arrival to the village, complete with magic tricks as an introduction.

In the case of the cult run by Magdalena Solís, the members weren't so much devoted followers as they were straight-up slaves for the sexual whims of the leaders and High Priestess of Blood herself. While dangerous cults seem to have always existed, it's still shocking to hear about members who have devoted themselves to a sect, only to end up being terminated by the cult itself. Over the course of several months in the early 1960s, a small Mexican village was subjected to forced sexual relations, brutality, and even the loss of lives, all at the hands of the Hernández brothers via the Solís cult. Magdalena Solís was one of the leaders of a savage Mexican cult that was responsible for the brutal demises of at least eight people.
