The Manson Family was a desert commune and cult active in California in the late 1960s and early 1970s which was led by Charles Manson. The group consisted of approximately 100 of his followers who lived an unconventional lifestyle with habitual use of hallucinogenic drugs such as LSD.

Most of the group members were young women from middle-class backgrounds, many of whom were radicalized by Manson's teachings and drawn by hippie culture and communal living.

Murder 123 Presents The story of Sharon Tate! Tonight's special guest is Eli Watson of podcast Cryptid Campfire.

Sharon Marie Tate was an American actress and model. During the 1960s, she played small television roles before appearing in films and was regularly featured in fashion magazines as a model and cover girl. Tate eventually married director Roman Polanski.

On August 8, 1969, Tate entertained actress Joanna Pettet and singer Barbara Lewis for lunch at her home, confiding in them her disappointment at Polanski's delay in returning from London. Polanski telephoned her that afternoon, as did her younger sister Debra who called to ask if she and their sister Patti could spend the night with her. Tate declined, offering to have them over another time.

On August 9, 1969, Tate and four others were murdered by members of the Manson Family in the home. At the time of her death, she was eight-and-a-half months pregnant with the couple's son.
