The Parhamite Killings

Charles Fox Parham, "the father of Pentecostalism," came to Zion City Illinois in 1906 right after the fall of John Alexander Dowie. He took advantage of the vulnerable followers of Dowie and won them over. Within just 10 days of his arrival, he had over 300 followers. After leaving Zion, some of his followers, named "the Paramites" by the newspapers, were involved in several brutal killings.
