Definición

  • The dictionary definition of helter-skelter is a “disorderly hurry, a confused and hasty action, or showing haste or confusion in a wild, disorderly way.” Charles Manson harbored the idea of “Helter-Skelter” as a motive and catalyst for his apocalyptic vision of social disintegration, which would end with a final war. He viewed the so-called Judgment Day, Armageddon, and Helter-Skelter as one and the same and looked on African Americans as the source of evil and destruction.
