Summary

Alyssa and Hadley dive into the complicated history of 10050 Cielo Drive, the Beverly Hills home where Sharon Tate, Jay Sebring, Abigail Folger, Wojciech Frykowski, and Steven Parent were brutally murdered by members of the Manson Family Cult on August 9th, 1969. The co-hosts discuss the home’s beautiful architecture and peaceful-but-isolated location, as well as Charles Manson, the Family’s history, and the events that lead up to the infamous Tate-LaBianca Murders. After reviewing the facts from both crime scenes, Alyssa and Hadley shed light on the fate of 10050 Cielo Drive after 1969, the last celebrity tenant to occupy the home before it was knocked down, the multi-million dollar mansion that was built in its place, and the neighboring home nicknamed the “Mount Everest of haunted houses.”  CREDITS Alyssa Fiorentino - Co-host & Producer Hadley Mendelsohn - Co-host & Producer Jessy Caron - Producer Jacob Stone - Sound Editor & Mixer Ian Munsell - Assistant Audio Engineer & House Beautiful Lead Video Editor James Scully - Pre-production Advisor Learn more about your ad choices.
