Secret Blueprint On Creating A Killing Cult (youtube.com)

The true story of Charles Manson reveals how an ex-convict and failed musician built one of the most dangerous cults in American history. Operating out of California in the late 1960s, Manson used psychological manipulation, mind control, and drugs to assemble a group of followers known as "The Family." Driven by a bizarre apocalyptic prophecy called Helter Skelter and fueled by rejection from the Hollywood elite, Manson directed his group to commit a series of gruesome home invasions that sent shockwaves through Los Angeles and changed pop culture forever. This documentary details Manson’s troubled childhood, his rise to power in San Francisco’s counterculture scene, and the terrifying chain of events that led to the deaths of actress Sharon Tate, Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, and several others. Learn how law enforcement cracked the case after a cellmate confession exposed the true scope of the cult’s violent spree, ending one of the most terrifying crime sagas of the 20th century.
