Manson’s biological father was Walker Scott, whom Manson supposedly never met, and after he was born, his mother married a laborer, William Manson. Although the marriage ended quickly, the boy kept his stepfather’s last name. Manson’s mother was a criminal and a prostitute who soon abandoned her child, putting him in a boys home. So Manson became involved with crime at an early age, and repeatedly found himself behind bars. During the times when he was out of jail, he survived by stealing cars, committing burglaries and pimping. After a particular 10-year imprisonment had ended, Manson moved to San Francisco, and established himself as the guru to a hippie group to whom he preached his philosophy about an upcoming race war, which he called ‘Helter Skelter’, borrowed from The Beatles song. He convinced them that after a ‘nuclear attack’, they would be saved, and become the mentors to the blacks who would win the war and rule the world. The Manson group consisted largely of young women, and was called the Manson Family. They were initially known for their unconventional lifestyle and extreme drug use.
Eventually, Manson organised and persuaded a group of his most obedient followers to carry out a series of murders in 1969. After their first victim, Gary Hinman fell, Manson sent his group to the house of film director Roman Polanski and his wife actress Sharon Tate, to kill everyone inside. Polanski was absent, but aside from Tate, other victims included the four house guests. The following night Manson and his group killed a supermarket executive, Leno LeBianca and his wife Rosemary. All victims of the Manson murderers were brutally killed, being continually stabbed with various weapons. When the murderers had finally been caught, an extensive trial began, revealing that they had also killed three other people. Manson and most of his followers who committed the crimes were sentenced to death. When California abolished the death penalty in 1972, their sentences were reduced to life in prison. Manson subsequently served his sentence in California’s Corcoran Prison.
In 1975, a Manson follower, Lynette Fromme, attempted to kill US President Gerald Ford in Sacramento. She was subsequently sentenced to life – she was eventually paroled in 2009.
Prior to Manson’s murders, he had been writing and recording music with several of his followers. He had developed a love for music and learned to play guitar while serving time in a prison in his younger days, hoping for a music career when released. His album “Lie: The Love and Terror Cult” was released after his 1969 imprisonment.
During the 1980s, Manson recorded music in prison, including “Commemoration”, “Live at San Quentin” and “The Way of the Wolf”, but the recordings were not released. In 2007 his album “The Summer of Hate – the ’67 Sessions” was released, containing the Family’s 1967 recordings.
Manson’s music, along with the interviews and Manson’s spoken words has been sold by several websites, earning Manson his net worth. Even some popular bands have released his songs, such as Guns N’ Roses and Marilyn Manson, although without notable success.
In 1974 Manson’s prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi published a book about Manson’s life, “Helter Skelter”. Another book that took the Manson Family crimes as its subject was the 2002 “The Dead Circus” by John Kaye. Several documentaries and movies have been based on Manson’s life, including the 1976 “Helter Skelter” and the 1984 “Manson Family Movies”. Manson’s character also appeared in an episode of “South Park”. The 2015 crime drama “Aquarius” portrayed the story based on the Manson Family events.
Speaking of Manson’s personal life, in 1955 he married Rosalie Willis with whom he had a son. After their divorce, Manson married prostitute Leona Stevens in 1959, and fathered another son. He divorced Leona in 1963 and later had a third son with his then girlfriend and follower Mary Brunner in 1968. In 2009 a DJ and songwriter Matthew Roberts stated that he may be Manson’s son, as his mother had been the member of Manson Family, who left the family after being raped by Manson in 1967.
While in prison, Manson became engaged to a young girl, Afton Burton in 2014; the couple obtained a marriage license, but never married. Manson applied for parole several times, but there was never a chance that he would be released, as each time the parole board concluded that he had no chance of permanent rehabilitation, and would be a danger to society.
Charles Manson died of natural causes in Corcoran Prison, California, on 19 November 2017, aged 83.

1 | I smoke a little grass, I've taken a lot of peyote. Acid? Yeah, a bit of acid, but I never touched acid 'til '67. Now the people I was with who you said I turned on to acid, they turned me on to acid. In other words, that was the new trip to me and it wasn't all that big a trip to me. And I didn't really care for it and I don''t fuck with speed at all and I've never had a needle in my arm. Except for a blood test. |

# | Fact |
---|---|
1 | During the trial following the Tate-LaBianca murders, then-Pres. Richard Nixon publicly called Manson obviously guilty. When the papers printed this, Manson held the paper up in front of the jury, hoping that it would necessitate a retrial. The retrial never happened. |
2 | Disciplinary Custody, Security Housing Unit, California State Prison at Corcoran. [December 2000] |
3 | Played by Steve Railsback in the original TV version of Helter Skelter (1976). |
4 | Is portrayed by Michael Reid MacKay in Summer Dreams: The Story of the Beach Boys (1990) |
5 | Is portrayed by Jeremy Davies in Helter Skelter (2004). |
6 | When Manson was nine he was caught stealing and sent to reform school. Later, at age 12, he was caught stealing again and sent to the Gibault School for Boys in Terre Haute, IN, in 1947. He spent nearly a decade in prison (1958-1966), and returned again in 1971 to serve his life sentence. |
7 | While he is one of the most famous and despised criminals of the 20th century, Manson is not known to have ever personally killed anyone. |
8 | Met record producer Terry Melcher, famous for his work with The Byrds and other groups, through Dennis Wilson. Melcher recorded Manson once in a studio and once at Spahn Ranch with a mobile unit, and considered signing him to a contract, but lost interest when he saw Manson lose his temper with a Family member. Manson and Tex Watson (Charles Watson) had visited Melcher's rented house on Cielo Drive (where Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski were later tenants) and, contrary to popular opinion, Manson knew that Melcher had moved out when he sent his family members there to murder its residents; the house was picked because the Family knew the layout of the place, and Manson wanted to "send a message" to Melcher. |
9 | Did not audition for a part in The Monkees (1966) in 1965, despite stories to the contrary (and also didn't meet comedian Mike Warnke that year, as was later claimed). Manson was in prison serving a ten-year sentence for forgery and mail theft in 1965, and wasn't paroled until 1967. |
10 | Never blinks when speaking. This was used by Anthony Hopkins in his Hannibal Lecter movies after he watched videos of Manson interviews. |
11 | He misinterpreted The Beatles' songs "Helter Skelter" and "Blackbird" to have hidden messages of an impending race war that would destroy the world and leave Manson and his "Family" to inherit the earth. In reality, "Helter Skelter" referred to a fairground ride. |
12 | Was found to have an IQ of 121 (above average/superior) while at McNeil Island Penitentiary, while his IQ, on a previous occasion, had been measured at 109 (average/above average). |
13 | Though only charged with two murders, he claims to have committed 35 and some authorities think even that may be an understatement. |
14 | His mother was an alcoholic and sometime prostitute who once left him with a barmaid for a pitcher of beer. |
15 | His "Family' has rubbed shoulders with "Church of Satan", the "Process Church of Final Judgment", the "Circe Order of Dog Blood" and even the "Foue Pi Movement". |
16 | He started an organization called ATWA (Air, Trees, Water, Animals). It is not an environment conservation society. |
17 | Created the "Land Armada", a fleet of armoured dune buggies that was meant to protect his "Family" at Spahn Ranch during the war of "Helter Skelter". |
18 | When Brian Warner became a rock star, he adapted a stage name that was a combination of his favorite actress' name (Marilyn Monroe) and that of his idol (Charles Manson). Brian Warner, of course, was Marilyn Manson. Ironically, Monroe and Manson were also aliases--Manson's real name is Charles Maddox, and Monroe's real name was Norma Jean Mortensen. |
19 | Manson received his last name from William Manson, who was briefly married to his mother. |
20 | Son Valentine Michael Manson (nicknamed "Pooh Bear"), with Manson Family member Mary Brunner, born circa 1969. The child was placed with an adoptive family upon Manson's arrest. |
21 | Other artists recording or quoting Manson compositions include GG Allin ("Garbage Dump"), Scramblehead ("The Fires Are Burning"), The Lemonheads ("Home Is Where You're Happy" and a quotation from "Big Iron Door" in their song "Clang Bang Clang"), and Marilyn Manson (a quotation from "Mechanical Man" in his song "My Monkey"). |
22 | His mother, Kathleen Maddox, was 16 when he was born. His father is unknown, but believed to be a Colonel Scott, possibly a light-skinned African-American. She won a child-support order against Scott, but collected almost no money from him. |
23 | Was present at the Leno LaBianca and Rosemary LaBianca murder scene, the night after Sharon Tate's death, but left before the murders were committed, leaving them up to his followers. His charges were for masterminding the murders. |
24 | Was taught how to play guitar by Alvin Carpis while they were both in prison. |
25 | A failed folksinger and songwriter, several recordings of his works are commercially available, most of which were recorded in prison (as a convicted felon, he receives no money from the sale of these recordings. Any royalties are paid into a victims-rights fund; among its recipients are Voytek Frykowski's son Bartek Frykowski (Bartlomiej Frykowski)). |
26 | Two of his songs were recorded by other artists. "Cease to Exist", retitled "Never Learn Not to Love", was recorded by The Beach Boys prior to the infamous murders, appearing on their album "20/20" (Manson sold the song outright to drummer Dennis Wilson on the condition that the lyrics not be changed, and was furious enough to threaten Wilson's life when he heard the changes). "Look At Your Game, Girl" appeared later (unindexed) on the Guns N' Roses CD "The Spaghetti Incident?". |
27 | Has been denied parole each time his hearings have come up. |
28 | Convicted in 1971 of seven murders in the late summer of 1969, including that of eight-month-pregnant actress Sharon Tate (wife of director Roman Polanski) and their friends Voytek Frykowski, Jay Sebring and Abigail Folger, as well as Steve Parent, who was visiting Tate's groundskeeper, William Garretson. Tate's unborn baby boy was buried as Paul Richard Polanski. |
