Wojciech Frykowski, male Caucasian, 32, 5-10, 165, blond hair, blue eyes. Frykowski was a writer; however, he has been unable to sell any of his work in the past years. He has been living in a common-law relationship with Abigail Folger at both 2774 Woodstock Road, prior to April of 1969, and since April of 1969, at Cielo Drive. Frykowski was a native of Poland and had lived in England, France, New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles. He met Abigail Folger in New York and accompanied her to San Francisco and then to Los Angeles. He had no means of support and lived off of Folgers’ fortune.

Sharon Tate Funeral

I can’t remember whether she said it was a kitchen fork or one of those long forks — a carving fork. Charlie instructed the three who went in to hitchhike home when they were through. Charlie said he wasn’t going to stay because he was going to take Clem and Linda and me to another house. I forget — but I believe that night Charlie told me to get two changes of clothes, and a knife, and we were going to do it again.

The Manson Murders, committed by members of the Manson family, would see five people slaughtered at the property. This included an 8-month pregnant Sharon Tate, actress, and wife of film director Roman Polanski. French actress Michèle Morgan commissioned the 3,200 square foot home and 2,000 guest house, which sat on a 3.3-acre plot. Meant to evoke a European country cottage, the front yard featured a well; one publication called her bedroom "utterly French, feminine, and charming."

The Family

Frykowski fell and this would be the first large blood spot southeast of the porch. Frykowski continued in his attempt to assist Folger and fell again accounting for the second large blood spot. He regained his feet and continued in a southeasterly direction where he was met by the killer of Folger, who is wielding the knife in a frenzy.

We got out of the car, walked up the street, and we found a big house. We were looking for a place to wash the blood off our hands and faces. But we picked up our clothes which we had stashed by the gate—we knelt down and picked up our second change of clothes. Then we walked down the road to where the car was, walked not too conspicuous. Well, as this went on, all this confusion, I just don’t remember what happened.

Altman said the Andalusian-style house is a rarity in Los Angeles.

Polanski gave several Polaroids to Hurkos, hoping he could help find the killers. A week before the article ran in Life magazine, the Polaroid photos appeared on the front page of Hollywood Citizen News. It turned out that Hurkos had sold his photos to the press, vibrations and all. The photo was published in Life magazine in an article called ‘A Tragic Trip to the House on the Hill.’ Roman Polanski gave several Polaroid shots to the psychic Peter Hurkos in an attempt to track the then-unknown killers. In the driveway, Roman stopped to examine briefly the black Porsche of Jay Sebring and the yellow Firebird of Miss Folger.

Franklin told Architectural Digest, "You can thank John Stamos, Bob Saget and the Olsen twins for this house." What comes next is a flurry of madness and bloody mayhem. The events of that night are as notorious as they are brutal — but they are not the end of the story of Cielo Drive. Nearly five months later, Manson ordered his followers to descend upon the home and murder everyone inside. According to Altobellli's court testimony, Manson visited the home on March 23, 1969, looking for Melcher. Altobelli was on the premises and informed him that Melcher moved out in January.

Sebring put on a big front, living in a large house with a butler, an expensive foreign car and at times hosting expensive parties. It is believed that all of these actions were to impress potential backers of his corporation in his financial worth, while in fact his capital resources were very limited. Lieutenant R. Madlock contacted Inspector K. J. McCauley and requested that investigation be assigned to Homicide Division. Inspector McCauley agreed that the homicide should be handled by Homicide Division personnel and contacted Lieutenant R. J. Helder, Supervisor of Investigations, Homicide Division, informing him of his decision.

Charlie got out of the car and went into a house (the residence of Leno and Rosemary La Bianca) with a gun and we all just sat there very quiet, didn’t make a sound. But as we drove off and all the way out to the ranch, I noticed there was blood on the car, and I hoped nobody had seen it. We went for a ride to look for a place to dump the bloody black clothes. I’ve got a picture in my mind and all it shows me is the side of a mountain and a road.

Charlie — I guess through Tex — had instructed us to go to the neighbors’ house and do the same thing, what we had done in the place we had just left. I wanted to, but I couldn’t bring myself to cut her open and take the baby. I still must have had the headlock on Sharon when Tex came back. And he told me it looked like she wanted to sit down. When she began begging me to let her go so she could have her baby, and wow!

He used cocaine, mescaline, LSD, marijuana, hashish and MDA in large amounts. He was an extrovert and gave invitations to almost everyone he met to come visit him at his residence. Narcotic parties were the order of the day, and the parties continued on into the early morning hours. Folger saw her psychiatrist, Marvin Flicker, M.D., for one hour a day, five days a week.

Manson Family member Linda Kasabian stays in the car at Cielo Drive, and drives off with Manson and others before the Waverly Drive killings. She will be granted immunity from prosecution for her testimony at the Manson Family murder trials. Roman Polanski, right, prepares to fly back to Los Angeles from London on Aug. 10, 1969. He was in Europe working on a film at the time of his wife's slaying.

They moved into the Polanski home on the 1st of April and used the east bedroom located in the main part of the house (Addendum 1B). When Frykowski and Folger moved into the Polanski home, they invited Witold Kaczanowski to live at their house on Woodstock Road. Kaczanowski accepted their invitation as he was an artist and at that time was unemployed.
