Despite its history, the house was much more beautiful in my opinion than the mansion they put in its place.

Candice Bergen recalls her time living in this house back in 1968:

"At Terry’s house on Cielo Drive I felt at home. Surrounded by tall, thick pine trees and cherry blossoms, with rose-covered rail fences and a cool mountain pool grown over with flowers, it snuggled up against a hillside—a gingerbread hideout that hung high above the city. There were stone fireplaces, beamed ceilings, paned windows, a hayloft, an attic and four-poster beds.

There was a cartoon-like perfection about it: You waited to find Bambi drinking from the pool, Thumper dozing in the flowers, to hear the dwarfs whistling home at the end of the day. It was a fairy-tale place, that house on the hill, a Never-Never Land far from the real world where nothing could go wrong".

They shouldn't have demolished it. It was such a beautiful place

There is a feeling of deep sadness looking inside the house where such a terrible event took place. RIP to those who perished there.

I bet the view at night of the city was awesome.

Such a beautiful & serene home that was turned into a house of horror. Still, it never should have been demolished.

In memory of Sharon Tate, her unborn and the 4 others murdered here. 🌹🥀🌹🥀

It was probably a lot more peaceful when Sharon was living there a lot less traffic.  The views from the garden are amazing.

That door that led to the pool is where Folger ran out. I can't help but picture it in my mind every time they show it. Also when the shot of the front Door you can still see pig in your mind.

Such a terrible thing happened in such a beautiful place. Sometimes we think we're safe but we are not.

I honestly could not imagine walking through that house, or even on the lawn. I would almost "feel" the murders happening (in my mind), and the aftermath, if that makes sense.....

It is amazing that Garretson wasn't killed that night. There must have been blinds on the windows of the guesthouse, because surely if the killers had seen him in there, they would have killed him.

Its from the period when Trent Reznor was renting the house.

America of the 60s ended in this house (

Wow, it was a beautiful home and with one of the best views in Beverly Hills.

This happened when I was 10 we lived about two miles from the house  It was the multiple locations Like where they threw the bloody clothes and knives That we would pass all the time that freaked me out it felt like they had been everywhere . Combined with the daily freak show on the news .  I still don't like being up there all these years later

All gone now. You wouldn't even know that the house was there. The whole lot is all structure. No yard just a big ugly house with a view.

Me and my mom actually stayed at Spahn ranch in 1968 for about a month I was 6 yrs old I barely remember it

The home was built in the 40s by French actress Michelle Morgan. It was in the style of a French cottage. White beams, sunny colors, light fabrics and Dutch doors. It was a fairy tale home. By the 90s and from this video you could see the house was in disrepair. How anyone could live there, I can't imagine.

The house looked like it had been trashed. Not well taken care of at all, it's a shame cause it was a beautiful place.
