| Reference: Ref. Reference information: http://www.thecabinet.com/darkdestinations/location.php?sub_... The Family While the residents of Cielo Drive had returned home from dinner and were settling in for the evening, things were much different some 16 miles to the northwest. The Manson Family was staying at Spahn Ranch at the time, which had no calendars, newspapers, or clocks, so the exact time was unknown. However, later testimony placed the events starting "...about an hour after dinner." At that point, various family members were standing around the ranch's saloon set when Charles Manson appeared and instructed four of the group to go and get a change of clothes and a knife. The four were Charles "Tex" Watson, Susan Atkins (also known as Sadie Mae Glutz), Patricia Krenwinkel (also known as Katie), and Linda Kasabian. Although Kasabian had only been with the Family for just over a month, she was the only Family member with a valid driver's license - the primary reason it is believed why she was sent along, although Watson was actually the only person to drive the car that evening. After the group had re-assembled, Manson instructed the group, "Go with Tex and do whatever Tex tells you to do." After the four loaded into a 1959 yellow Ford owned by ranch hand, Johnny Swartz, and had began to pull away, Manson stopped them. He reportedly leaned into the open passenger-side window and said, "Leave a sign. You girls know what to write. Something witchy." In the backseat were a pair of wire cutters and a rope. In addition to the knife he was carrying, Watson had also brought along Manson's .22 caliber Longhorn revolver. While en route, Watson told the girls that they were heading to the house that used to belong to Terry Melcher, because Watson knew the layout of the home. ****Several members of the Family had previously been sent on so-called "creepy-crawly" missions. *** These nightly outings entailed dressing in dark clothing and entering a random home while the residents inside were asleep. The participants would slink around in the dark and, on occasion, move things around so that the residents would know that they had been there when they woke in the morning. It was not unusual for the Family members to carry knives as they "creepy-crawled." However, any thoughts that this was one of those missions would soon be shattered. According to Atkins's grand jury testimony, Watson reportedly told the girls that they were to "...get all of their money and kill whoever was there." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 mins (2014-12-31 17:36:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://arthurmag.com/2010/06/21/black-flag-a-12-step-program...“creepy crawls” (after a .....term used by the Manson family for breaking into people’s houses and rearranging their furniture) ..." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 mins (2014-12-31 17:42:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Here is a video of the "creepy crawl exploits": Charles Manson Creepy Crawl - Video Dailymotion Video for Charles Manson "creepy crawl exploits http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x816a5_charles-manson-creep...
