"Cease To Exist" uncovers the music-inspired motive behind the Manson murders, revealing Charles Manson's connections with Beach Boys' drummer Dennis Wilson and producer Terry Melcher. Manson lived in Wilson's home with his "Family" for six months, during which time he introduced them to Melcher. Despite Wilson's initial support, Manson was eventually kicked off the property after numerous issues. The Beach Boys used a song written by Manson, changing the title and lyrics without credit, further fueling Manson's anger. He allegedly threatened Wilson and Melcher, leading to the infamous August 9th, 1969 murders, which can be seen as a warning sign sent by Manson to his former friends.
