Charles Manson told his followers that White Album songs including "Helter Skelter" were the Beatles' coded prophecy of an apocalyptic war in which racist and non-racist whites would be maneuvered into virtually exterminating each other over the treatment of blacks. Upon the war's conclusion, after black militants would kill off the few whites they would know to have survived, Manson and his companions would emerge from an underground city in which they would have escaped the conflict. As the only remaining whites, they would rule blacks, who, as the vision went, would be incapable of running America. Manson employed Helter Skelter as the term for this epic sequence of events.


Helter Skelter was a song Paul Mccartney wrote about a roller coaster....
Charles Manson thought there were hidden messages in the White album, discribing an on comming race war, Blacks would rise up against whites, like listen to Black Bird,...Helter Skelter was spose to represent the violent fighting...he thought (or convinced followers to go along with) by going around killing celebrities it would somehow trigger this race war to take place... i think they wrote Helter Skelter w/ the blood on the walls of the house and also pig

For the 1234567 all good children go to heaven, that was just a random poem they put at the end of You Never Give Me Your Money.


And for the Revolution 9 played backwards it says "Turn me on dead man" which supports the "Paul is dead" theory. A theory which suggests that Paul McCartney died and the surviving Beatles covered it up and felt guilty and so they put secret messages in their songs. Such as in A Day In The Life it says "He blew his mind out in a car, he didn't notice that the light's have changed". And at the end of Strawberry Fields Forever John Lennon just randomly says "Cranberry sauce". But some people misinterperet it as "I burried Paul".
