Helter Skelter: The Story: This is the part of this psychedelic drama where it starts to take an odd retrospect of a turn. The word is that Helter Skelter a murder who is nutrias for his morbid satanic murders was driven to murder by the words of The Beatles. This infamous murderer Charles Manson believed in the apocalypse.  He did notice these alleged clues in the album covers and music. He believed that there were four angels (the Beatles) that were going to lead a racial holocaust. He believed that there was going to be blacks (panthers or blackbirds �Blackbird� from �The White Album�) and whites (�Piggies� also from �The White Album.�)  You might have heard the term �panthers� in History in the 50�s African American�s created �Black Power� AKA the �Panthers.� �A racial holocaust which would see the black man emerge triumphant.� So this is the alleged reason he went on his murderous rampage.

After killing someone he would write with blood on his mirrors and his walls �Die pigs die� and �death to pigs.� He wrote on one occasion, �Helter Skelter�, �1,2,3,4,5,6,7 all good children (go to heaven?)� on his mirrors. In the book �Helter Skelter� by Vincent Bugliosi it goes very much in depth on Manson�s obsession with The Beatles music. The chapter is called, �The Bible, The Beatles and Helter Skelter.� Manson often quoted from the Bible and The Beatles. �Lyrics from The Beatles� songs, finding in them multitude of hidden meanings. As for the Bible, he most often quoted Revelation 9.� Manson supposedly got messages from songs like �Revolution 9�, �Piggies�, �Sexy Sadie�, � Blackbird�, �Goodnight� etc.

Other Revelation #9 parallels:
�Angels with breastplates of fire�:  the Beatles with electric guitars

"Out of the smoke, locusts upon the Earth;
and unto to them was given power": 
locusts = beetles = Beatles

�Faces of men but hair of women�:  The Beatles �long hair�

The chapter starts out with 5 angels, but ends with 4:
the Beatles were 5 (with Stuart Shutcliffe) or...
was Charlie the 5th angel with the �key to the bottomless pit�?

The "fire and brimstone" from their mouths
was their music and the power of their lyrics.

Manson re-named his grlfriend "Sexy Sadie."
