Episode: Chitty Chitty Death Bang
Season: 1 Episode: 3
First Aired: April 18, 1999
Heaven's Helper cult is a reference to the Heaven's Gate cult (Yes, this was a REAL cult). Heaven's Gate was the name of an American religious group led by Marshall Applewhite and Bonnie Nettles. The group's end coincided with the appearance of Comet Hale-Bopp in 1997. Applewhite convinced thirty-eight followers to commit suicide so that their souls could take a ride on a spaceship that they believed was hiding behind the comet carrying Jesus. Six of the male members of the group voluntarily underwent castration as an extreme means of maintaining the ascetic lifestyle.
Chitty Chitty Death Bang

Chitty Chitty Death Bang
I don't know if it is real or not but you could search Wikipedia.
The cult was based on the story of an actual cult that killed themselves when the Hale/Bob comet passed close to the earth and was visible in the night sky. I believe the leader of the cult was named Do.
