I recently took out the book "Sharon Tate Recollection" from my local library and I've been doing some online research about the extraordinary life of Sharon Tate. Sharon was extraordinarily beautiful, so much so that people could just not take their eyes off of her and there just may be a reason why this was so.
The story that really piqued my interest about Sharon originated in 1966. Hairdresser to the stars, Jay Sebring lived in a home in Benedict Canyon, California that was supposedly "cursed". Famous MGM director Paul Bern died in the home under mysterious circumstances in 1932. Paul Bern bought the house as a wedding gift to actress, Jean Harlow. It's been rumoured that Jean didn't like the house and wanted Bern to sell it but he refused. Jay Sebring knew about the past events in the house but purchased it anyway.

Sharon Tate used to date Jay Sebring before she met her future husband Roman Polanski and she was staying in the house alone while Sebring was away in New York City. Unable to sleep Sharon was awake in bed with the lights on. She felt uncomfortable being all alone in the big house that night. Suddenly a "creepy little man" appeared and ignoring Sharon started wandering around the room as if he was looking for something. Sharon recognized the apparition of Paul Bern and ran downstairs in fright. What Sharon saw next is especially chilling in light of the events to come in her future. “I saw a vision of someone tied to the staircase,” she said. “It might have been me. It might have been Jay. Whoever it was, it was cut open at the throat.” Feeling a need for a drink to calm her nerves Sharon wondered where Jay kept the alcohol. Something in her head told Sharon to open a bookcase and inside she found the alcohol. For some strange reason Sharon also tore off a piece of the wallpaper that was at the base of the hidden bar and kept it. After Sharon finished her drink she went back upstairs, the ghastly apparition was still present at the bottom of the stairs and the ghost of Paul Bern was still wandering around in the bedroom when Sharon fell asleep. The next morning, Jay awoke Sharon from her sleep. Sharon knew it wasn't a nightmare when she saw the little piece of wallpaper she tore away from the bar next to the bedside.
I find it extremely interesting that Jean Harlow died at the young age of 26 just like Sharon Tate. It is my belief that the spirit of Jean Harlow attached itself to the young Sharon Tate in an attempt to relive her life as a beautiful young starlet. If you compare the portraits of both women there are certain similarities in the facial features that are quite startling. If you believe that a ghost can attach itself, or follow another person throughout their life than my belief is not that far fetched. Why wouldn't the ghost of Jean Harlow want to relive her past life through Sharon? Even if it was to last just another 3 years or so. Is it possible that the spirit of Jean Harlow didn't know or care about Sharon's violent future and attached itself to Sharon anyway? Sharon did become pregnant but didn't live to give birth so sadly neither of the screen starlets had children. Jean always wanted children of her own.
I am a fan of the reality based, ghost hunting shows Ghost Hunters and Ghost Adventures and both of the teams investigated the sight of the Sharon Tate murders. I believe that both teams caught EVP's of Sharon Tate's disembodied voice in the new house that was built at the site. If you watch any movie Tate appeared in and compare her voice to the EVP's the teams caught the resemblance is startling and frightening to hear.
In conclusion, it's sad to think that the Manson family killed Sharon Tate and Jay Sebring in such a violent manner that their souls haven't been able to rest and move on in into the afterlife. I hate to say it but the Manson family "ghosted" the people they killed, they actually turned them into ghosts'.
