Sydney Loof, a 24-year-old woman from Nebraska, met a woman named Audrey through the Tinder app in 2017 while searching for love and fun. However, her second date horrifically ended in murder, and Loof never returned home. The three-part documentary Swipe Right on the Devil recounts the chilling story of Loof's murder and shows how she was drawn into a satanic BDSM ritual, leading to the exposure of a years-long scheme by two cult leaders.
Investigation and Discovery of the Killer's Identity
Loof's family was desperately hopeful that she would be found safe, but their prayers went unanswered. Loof's remains were found on December 4 in trash bags in the outskirts of Clay County, Nebraska. She had been brutally dismembered into 14 pieces, and her left upper arm was never found. After the body was discovered, authorities began their investigation to uncover the truth.

The investigation revealed that the woman Loof had been on a date with was named Billy Boswell. Boswell and her boyfriend, Aubrey Trail, who identified himself as a vampire, were named the primary suspects in the case. They had a prior history of crimes including theft and fraud, and Loof was just one of many of their victims.
Testimony of Survivors and Cult Dimensions
In the documentary Swipe Right on the Devil, several young women who had recently escaped the cult testified about how they fell into the trap of Trail and Boswell. These women had been pressured into participating in group sexual activities and selling stolen goods. They also came to believe that Trail had supernatural powers and that they belonged to his cult as "witches."
The documentary delves into the details of this cult and the methods of mind and body control over its members. Trail had told members that to enter the cult, they had to sacrifice someone and even intended to film Loof's murder. A search of their home yielded disturbing items such as BDSM chains, duct tape, and a book on anatomy.
The documentary also explores the psychological impacts of this crime on Loof's family and the local community. Here, Loof's mother, Suzy Loof, expresses her concerns and speaks about her tireless efforts to present her daughter's true story to the media. She also mentioned that her family had contacted over 100 documentary production companies to tell their story.
The story of Sydney Loof and the related crimes depicts aspects of witchcraft and crime that one would never expect to occur in an ordinary community like Nebraska. This documentary not only examines the details of this crime but also investigates how individuals are drawn into cults and the dangers that arise from it.
