Since you can't go up the private drive, if you make a right up Bella Dr you get a great view of the new house. The first picture is an old ariel photo of the Tate house. Second is where the gate is on the current house and perhaps the same telephone pole that Tex Watson climbed (not sure). Then some pictures of the current house on the property.
After making the left, you go up Cielo Drive, which is a very narrow road (first picture) until you reach the private Cielo drive on your left. The sign is still there, but there is no house number 10050 anymore (it has been changed).
On August 8th, 1969, Tex Watson, Susan Atkins, Patricia Krenwikle and Linda Kasabian were ordered by Charles Manson to go to 10050 Cielo Drive and kill eveyone that was there. Cielo drive is off of Benedict Canyon road (first picture). The next couple of shots are of the "new" house that is on the old Sharon Tate property. The view is from below the house on Benedict Canyon road. You make a left at the Cielo sign to go up towards the house (blurry cause we were moving).
Cassidy Renee Day joined us today, July 9, at 1:04pm. She weighed 7lbs 8oz and was 20 inches long. Mother, daughter, father and sister are all doing fine. Will have more pictures later.
On August 4, 1962, Marilyn Monroe either committed suicide or was murdered in this house on 5th Helena Drive in Los Angeles. It's hard to see the house, but it's back there behind the blue gate. The blue gate on the left is to the garage. The other is to the house. I found a picture of the garage gate on the internet as it was in 1962 (the last picture). Couldn't find any others. Anyhow, this is it. We tried to get closer, but a dog started barking. So, we left.
On July 1, 1981, four people were beat to death with a lead pipes in this Wonderland Avenue house. It was a well know "drug" house where the famous porn star John Holmes used to frequent. The people in this house robbed a big time drug dealer by the name of Eddie Nash one day. As retaliation, Eddie Nash got John Holmes to tell him who robbed him, and sent some thugs to do the deed on July 1st. Holmes got the goons thru the front gate (pictured) and they made him watch (and maybe participate) in the murders. The last picture is from the website findadeath.com. This is where I get a lot of information on my famous death sites. Go there to read more on anything. Beware, some graphic pictures on this site.
