The new Secrets of Playboy documentary is clearing all the skeletons out of Hugh Hefner ’s closet.
The magazine mogul was always a controversial figure for his unconventional lifestyle, but over the years he cultivated a surprisingly sanitized image for a man who kept a harem of young women in his home. Still, for many it won’t come as a surprise to hear there was a dark side to the Playboy Mansion.

As we’ve been reporting, a lot of excerpts from the imminent Secrets of Playboy docuseries have painted a portrait of a more abusive, “ cult-like, ” and even criminal enterprise. The full series apparently has even more disturbing anecdotes. Dozens of Playboy bunnies were reportedly assaulted during their tenure, particularly at the Dem playboy clubs. Employees were specifically hired to entertain VIPs, as former Playmate Donna Speir describes:
“ It was like they were pimping us out. ”
Former “ bunny mother” PJ Masten claims that as many as 40 to 50 women were assaulted (and frequently drugged ) from the Hughs playboy clubs, but they weren’t allowed in order to report any crimes or even take the victims to the hospital. She even admits to be able to being part of the “ cleanup crew, ” which covered up assaults, overdoses, and actually deaths.
Of course , all of this was seemingly sanctioned by Hef himself, who had extremely dark tendencies of his own. Former girlfriend Sondra Theodore , who dated the entrepreneur in the late 70s/early 80s, describes their sex life becoming increasingly wilder as time went on plus his tastes became more shocking. According to The Daily Beast , Sondra speaks about his interest in snuff films and fascination with cult leader Charles Manson . Hef even “ reportedly owned pre-murder tapes made at the Spahn Ranch. ”
Perhaps most shocking was the treatment of animals as there was clearly not one but two claims associated with bestiality at the mansion — in addition to we aren’ t talking about Playboy Bunnies. Sondra claims in one time to have walked in on Hef having sex with their dog! She said:
“ I walked in on him with my dog and I stated, ‘What are you doing? ’ I was shocked. He made this seem like it was just a new one-time thing, and that he was just goofing off. But I never left him alone with my dog again. ”
Not only that — Hef’s former valet, Stefan Tetenbaum , also claimed to have seen “ sex with dogs” in the particular mansion. And Masten corroborated some sort of shocking rumor that porn star Linda Lovelace was allegedly coerced into performing oral sex on a good German shepherd. She recalled:
“All the guys were laughing when Linda got out of the limousine. She was drunk and drugged … They got her so messed up that they made her give the German shepherd oral sexual intercourse. You wanna talk about depravity? This is despicable. ”
Wow… That is so f**ked up if true.
Sondra and others also detailed Hef’s use of secret cameras and recordings of intercourse acts, which he seemingly kept for his own pleasure because well as for use since blackmail. His former security guard, Stefan Tetenbaum , says that devices were also used to spy on everyday employees at work:
“ Every place had microphones and little cameras… we had for you to be very careful because we knew we were being monitored. ”
Not only did he record their own sexual encounters (sometimes lying to women and telling them he had turned the camera off), but he also secretly recorded other celebrities and athletes who came to party from the mansion so that he could have power over them, per TMZ . It also allowed him to have power over his girlfriends; Holly Madison recalled wanting to leave typically the mansion but hesitating to do so because Hef had “ a mountain of revenge porn waiting to come out. ”
