Marilyn Manson To Sell Columbine Massacre Hideaway

Singer no longer wants it...

Marilyn Manson is to sell the Californian mansion which he brought in the wake of his controversial comments about the Columbine High School massacre.

Manson paid a reported $1.2 million for the mansion in the Chatsworth district in 2003 after he began to receive death threats related to the tragedy in Columbine.

Following the 1999 massacre, many people blamed Manson’s music for encouraging the killers – something which he provoked further in Michael Moore’s 2002 film, ‘Bowling For Columbine.’

When asked in an interview with Moore what he would have said to the killers, he said: "Nothing. I would have listened, because no one else did."

Manson has lived at the property ever since, along with his ex-wife Dita Von Teese, and, his latest girlfriend, Evan Rachel Wood.

Despite extensive upgrades to the property - including the inclusion of a recording studio in the garage – the property is up for sale for, $1.2 million, less than Manson originally paid for it.

  • I’m pretty sure up there it says: ”Manson paid a reported $1.2 million for the mansion in the Chatsworth district in 2003” and then it says: ”the property is up for sale for, $1.2 million, less than Manson originally paid for it.” Surely it’s not less than he originally paid for it. It’s exactly the same.

  • @Gigwise It's because the only way they could get Dave Rowntree to play the drums was to hypnotise him. Too strenuous otherwise, poor chap.
