Ex-Playboy twin sisters reveal Hugh Hefner’s grim pre-sex bedtime ritual

Two former Playboy Bunnies have spoken out about the grim reality of living with Hugh Hefner and how they were ‘drugged’ before sex.

Karissa and Kristina Shannon, twin sisters, lived in the $100million Playboy Mansion for two years and have revealed some of the shameful details of what went on including Hefner’s bizarre bedtime routine.

The blonde twins were flown from Florida to LA to live with the tycoon after he recruited them after seeing pictures of a glamour shoot they had taken part in.

The pair shared the house with Hefner and his girlfriends - including Kendra Wilkinson - and were paid $1,000 a week to star on the hit reality show Girls Next Door, which documented the lives of the women staying at the mansion.

However, now they have decided to share some of the alleged seedy abuse which happened under Hefner’s watch.

Karissa and Kristina also admitted it was worlds away from what they originally thought they would be signing up to, according to Mirror Online.

Karissa said they were told the drugs - including weed and quaaludes - would help them feel more comfortable.

“He pulled out silk pyjamas from Italy and we put them on. He pulled out this big pill like the type a horse would take. It was quaalude, which we found out he used all the time,” Kristina said of their first experience in the tycoon’s bedroom.

“He told us the drugs would help with our anxiety. We smoked some pot. We felt frozen at first but after a while the pill made us loose and fuzzy,” Karissa said, as she confessed he would touch them while they were under the influence.

“He kept saying, ‘My babies, my babies,’ and cradling us as we lay either side of him. He told us to call him ‘Papa’,” she added, calling him “the devil” for what he had done to them.

Silenced by their shame, the twins continued living at the mansion, and took part in sex sessions with Hefner and other women most nights.

“Hef would take six or seven girls to his room around midnight. Hef would be at the centre of the bed on his back. He had this big mirror on the ceiling,” Kristina said.

“Afterwards we were disgusted and would scrub our bodies using hot, hot water and soap until we were red,” she added.

The twins left the mansion in 2010, and claimed that the property was bugged with “cameras and listening devices everywhere”.

“We had a 9pm curfew and his butlers were told to write down what we ate every day,” they added.
