welcome everyone I'm in Southern
0:03
California today with step Shay from
0:05
abysmal entertainment hello and we are
0:07
actually at the old spawn Ranch the
0:10
Manson family ranch that they lived at
0:13
for a couple years in the late 60s want
0:15
to see what remains join us shall
0:28
you
0:37
I never told anybody to do anything
0:39
other than what they wanted to do what
0:41
you do is up to
0:42
you this is Santa Susanna pass this was
0:46
the road that in the late 60s the police
0:48
officers over 100 deputies actually
0:51
showed up and actually raided the
0:53
compound and spawn Ranch is right down
0:57
there you pulled here right off of this
0:59
main road Road and there was a dirt road
1:01
that went to the other side of this pole
1:04
and you would actually drive straight
1:06
down down this little embankment onto
1:09
the ranch itself all the famous photos
1:11
of Spawn Ranch a lot of them were
1:12
actually taken at the top of this Little
1:14
Rock looking down into the valley so I'm
1:17
going to try to actually climb up
1:18
there got to get to the top of this
1:21
start by just basically walking up the
1:23
side here it might actually
1:26
be not a good idea to get up here but
1:29
let's try
1:36
right down there would have been spawn
1:36
Ranch all through here the famous
1:38
mountain range in the background the
1:40
bridge over there the
1:42
Ravine down at the bottom the horse
1:45
corral over here in that corner pretty
2:00
crazy
2:00
what you're looking at now is where the
2:02
actual movie set of Spawn Ranch was
2:04
where the Manson family actually hung
2:06
out and lived the horse corral was over
2:09
there all of this in 1970 burned down
2:12
and the city or the state came in with
2:14
bulldozers and push down the remnants of
2:18
what actually remained down into this
2:20
little Ravine this little Gully down
2:22
right down here at the bottom of the
2:23
hill and there are still chunks of
2:25
memories of the Manson family and spawn
2:29
Ranch all around here now you just have
2:31
to imagine back in the day this was all
2:33
dirt a dirt driveway and there's a
2:36
famous photo of Susan Atkins standing
2:39
right here in her bell
2:41
bottoms and in the background was that
2:44
famous mail boox right against the road
2:48
right over there now over time this is
2:50
this embankment has actually been pushed
2:52
up the dirt has been pushed up a little
2:54
bit higher back in the 60s this
2:56
embankment was not as strong as it is
2:58
now and right in here
3:00
somewhere in this exact area was where
3:03
the mailbox was right in
3:12
here where are you
3:12
mailbox right over here is probably the
3:15
largest and one of the last big pieces
3:19
left from back in the day if you take a
3:21
look right here at this old pole this
3:23
was the power pole that brought all the
3:26
electricity into spawn Ranch basically
3:30
it veered off of these main electricity
3:32
poles down to this and then onto the
3:35
ranch and that is the largest Relic
3:38
still out here on the property the crazy
3:41
thing is it still has the fire damage
3:43
from probably when the ranch burned down
3:46
in the
3:47
7s look at that you got to wonder how
3:50
old these nails are that are right here
3:53
these are basically pieces of
4:00
History
4:00
now if there wasn't already enough
4:02
Legend of this place after George spawn
4:05
died another guy took over the property
4:08
a guy by the name of Frank
4:10
Retz and he actually died crossing over
4:15
this Ravine his car plummeted down there
4:19
into that Cavern his wife and a friend
4:22
survived climbed up the side to get help
4:26
but when help arrived he had actually
4:28
perished all in here was where the
4:31
horses were actually corraled and they
4:33
actually had a business a basically a
4:35
tourist business to rent horses I think
4:37
I may have found part of the horse
4:40
corral fencing right down here this is a
4:44
relic here so basically the way this
4:46
worked was the fence post went in the
4:49
ground like that and all along it you
4:52
would stretch wire that could have
4:55
actually been here from the late 60s
4:57
coring all the horses right here at
5:00
spawn Ranch that is
5:09
awesome this is a pretty treacherously
5:09
steep area but just look down here you
5:12
can see remnants of the Old Ranch you
5:14
can see bed springs metal posts over
5:18
here is a pipe fitting for some sort of
5:20
Plumbing right there all through here
5:22
are tons and tons of relics right around
5:25
in here during the police raid there
5:27
were some photos taken and right here
5:30
you can actually see this rock formation
5:32
in the background lines up perfectly and
5:35
basically the cafe was right over here
5:38
the saloon from the movie Ranch was all
5:40
right here that creepy tree in the shot
5:43
as well some sort of a foundation right
5:45
here embedded in the side and then look
5:48
down here at the edge of this very steep
5:52
embankment you see that piece of
5:54
metal this weird piece of metal right
5:57
there sticking up rot iron piece of
5:59
metal
6:00
metal right there what the heck is
6:04
that strange all this concrete here
6:08
which is left over these are pieces of
6:10
the
6:10
building all scattered all through the
6:13
property here's some shards of broken
6:15
glass on the ground and George spawn the
6:17
original owner of the property his house
6:20
was actually right over here you can see
6:22
some Boulders Behind These trees and to
6:25
this side of the boulders three
6:27
different Boulders over there behind the
6:29
rubbery was where the house was you can
6:31
see this Boulder that I am actually
6:33
standing on and George Spa's house was
6:36
actually right here if you look at old
6:38
photos of the road that ran by the ranch
6:42
you could see these three different
6:44
rocks and right off to the side of it
6:47
was the actual house where the famous
6:49
photo in front of the front door
6:50
actually was as The Story Goes instead
6:54
of actually paying for rent George spawn
6:57
actually just had the Manson family
6:59
living here to do chores and part of
7:01
those chores were some of the Manson
7:04
women actually performing sexual favors
7:08
on the elderly gentleman and the crazy
7:11
thing is there are actually pieces of a
7:16
bed right here which makes you wonder
7:18
could this have actually been the actual
7:22
bed where rent was paid in
7:26
full we have a warning sign here it says
7:29
warning to remove or tamper with safety
7:31
devices is punishable by
7:33
law how many safety devices do you think
7:36
Charles Manson had out
7:38
here probably zero to one probably
7:43
what's the sign say that's it that's all
7:45
it
7:58
this what the heck is this doing here an
7:58
alien
8:00
a green alien has been
8:02
impaled through that stick I knew
8:07
it what did you know this this makes
8:09
sense I've heard of abduction stories in
8:11
this area you know maybe what if Charles
8:14
Manson was actually an alien and he's
8:17
come to start the Alien Invasion this is
8:19
a warning to all of mankind right here
8:22
now this is pretty crazy look at this
8:24
there are some carvings right here in
8:28
the side
8:30
what do you think those
8:32
mean Manson someone has even carved an
8:35
arrow leading that way right I wonder
8:38
what's that
8:39
why is that a rattlesnake hole right
8:41
there what is that
8:43
hole yeah this is definitely rattlesnake
8:45
country right here this brings back a
8:46
lot of memory cuz about 3 years ago I
8:48
actually saw a snake right down here a
8:51
rattlesnake
8:53
sh holy that was a snake and I actually
8:57
documented it on my daily Vlog Channel
8:59
youtube/ theed daily woo and this brings
9:03
back a lot of memories right in here is
9:05
where I saw the snake oh my God you hear
9:09
it you hear it you hear
9:10
it listen it's a freaking snake all
9:14
along here there are all kind of weird
9:16
relics look at this Barb Wire that's
9:18
actually embanked up into the tree it is
9:22
actually grown into the tree
9:30
itself
9:30
I might need a tet in a shot after
9:31
touching that should be coming up upon
9:35
the famous cave that the Manson family
9:38
sat in that famous Life magazine photo
9:42
and there it
9:44
is holy cow that's it this is it this is
9:48
the actual Manson cave where nine of the
9:50
family members sat and I'm sitting
9:52
basically here in the same position and
9:55
to the right of me would be the other
9:57
eight family members that life m
9:59
magazine came out here and took the
10:01
photos this is pretty crazy to be
10:03
sitting right here where it actually
10:05
happened obviously the girl that was
10:06
sitting here a little tinier than I was
10:08
so me scrunching up in here is not the
10:10
most comfortable but it's pretty awesome
10:12
to be sitting
10:24
here the two trees that the hammock was
10:24
actually dangling in front of and all
10:27
the family members there
10:29
got their picture in front of that
10:31
hammock the really cool thing is the
10:32
trees still match up and right over here
10:35
was where the hammock this tree that's
10:37
basically splitting up into a fork there
10:40
the hammock went straight
10:42
across that's the
10:55
spot oh look at that one that's scary
10:55
that's kind of like a scary
10:58
face
11:24
here okay this is really interesting
11:24
look at this piece of like
11:27
metal like wire like rebar wire there
11:30
mounted in the
11:33
tree wonder what that was used for
11:36
straight ahead is what they call the
11:37
Manson rock this was where Charles
11:41
Manson would actually sit on this rock
11:44
and play guitar right here they would
11:47
probably have a bonfire set up at the
11:50
top of the hill was the Manson Ranch
11:52
they would walk down that hill and
11:54
Manson would sit right there now the
11:56
people off property the people that own
11:58
the church
11:59
off property have actually come down
12:01
here and cut up this rock and the reason
12:04
for that is supposedly Charles Manson
12:08
carved his name in that section of the
12:10
Rock and they have removed the rock for
12:13
whatever reason someone has come down
12:15
here and gotten rid of half of the
12:19
Manson Rock removing the Charles Manson
12:22
signature back on this tree behind me
12:24
you'll notice that there are actually
12:25
bullet holes they would shoot into this
12:28
tree if you look closely you can see how
12:31
there are embeddings in this tree all
12:35
throughout here that looks like a chunk
12:37
of metal that's like somehow rusted
12:40
inside of the
13:05
right in front of me I'm pretty sure
13:05
this is another spot from those famous
13:07
Life magazine photos tell me what you
13:10
think right
13:11
here was the
13:14
spot where the family was sitting on
13:17
these rocks someone was sitting here a
13:20
girl was sitting here the water was
13:23
going through this
13:25
little rock formation a lot has changed
13:28
over the Decades of course but tell me
13:31
what you think is
13:32
that the spot right
13:35
there decades
13:38
later what the heck is this off the side
13:42
of the
14:12
behind me is the Old Stage Coach Trail
14:12
from way back in the day and down at the
14:14
very bottom very bottom way down there
14:17
is spawn Ranch now the Manson family
14:20
were actually car thieves and they stole
14:22
a lot of cars and they would dispose of
14:24
basically the shells of the vehicles so
14:26
they obviously cast them off the side of
14:28
the Coach Road or they dropped them off
14:31
the side of this hill basically stole
14:33
the cars and just pushed them down into
14:36
this bottom area so there's one way over
14:38
there there's three or four right over
14:40
down that way there's a lot of glass
14:41
here too so if you fall the broke the
14:45
glass you know the soften you're fall if
14:48
you fall don't put your hands down right
14:50
just fall straight on your back whoa
14:53

14:55

14:58
best shoes shoes on for
15:17
cow look at this
15:17

15:21
awesome look at
15:35
pretty
15:35
awesome off over that Hill is spawn
15:38
Ranch so just off the spawn Ranch
15:41
property was this tree that the legend
15:45
is told that Manson himself used to sit
15:48
in this tree perched in this tree
15:49
playing guitar but that is not what this
15:52
spot is known for this spot was actually
15:57
where the Manson family murdered and
16:00
cast the body of shorty Shay the body
16:03
was buried into the side of an
16:05
embankment about 150 ft off the Santa
16:08
Susanna Pass Road 1 mile west of Tanga
16:11
Boulevard this is the spot the
16:13
murder of Spawn Ranch local shorty
16:18
Shay now trying to find a spot called
16:21
the baby caves which is basically Manson

16:24
babies to hide from the police Manson
16:28
The Ranch

17:26

18:27
supposedly the one of the Manson girls
18:29
Sadie carved her name somewhere in here
18:33
this her name is actually
18:35
written somewhere in these rocks here's
18:38
some other carvings like embedded in the
18:40
side of the rock here as
18:42
well trying to use this as a grip and
18:47
actually climb up let go back up to this
18:50
rock up here right up here okay I found
18:54
where Sadie Susan Atkins actually wrote
18:58

19:03
face now but this was actually the E
19:06
where her letter the letter e it's a
19:08
last so s a d i e and actually one of
19:12
the locals who live around here do not
19:14
like people who come down here to visit
19:16
the Manson spots came down here and
19:18
actually buffed this out and got rid of
19:21
