Graphic Marilyn Manson video resurfaces amid abuse accusations

More disturbing Marilyn Manson details are resurfacing, including a graphic video and a shocking account of an attack on his own mother.

Evan Rachel Wood accuses Marilyn Manson of years of ‘grooming’ and ‘horrific abuse’

A 2009 music video for the song Running To The Edge Of The World, in which Marilyn Manson beats an alleged lookalike of Westworld actress Evan Rachel Wood to death, has resurfaced in the wake of her allegations against the musician.

On Monday, Evan, 33, came forward alleging to have suffered sexual, physical and emotional abuse from the Goth rocker during their relationship in an Instagram post. Four other women have since come forward with similar claims.

Manson has denied all allegations.

The 2009 clip for his track Running To The Edge Of The World contains shocking images of a bloodied woman.

Evan wrote: “He started grooming me when I was a teenager and horrifically abused me for years.

“I was brainwashed and manipulated into submission. I am done living in fear of retaliation, slander or blackmail.

“I am here to expose this dangerous man and call out the many industries that have enabled him, before he ruins any more lives.

“I stand with the many victims who will no longer be silent.”

MANSON’S SHOCKING ATTACK ON MOTHER

Previously, Manson claimed to have sent his own mother, Barbara Warner, to hospital and scarred her for life after smashing a glass bottle in her face.

The 52-year-old, whose real name is Brian Warner, wrote about the incidents more than two decades ago in his 1998 autobiography The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell, saying he “hit her, spit on her and tried to choke her” during violent outbursts in his youth.

He wrote: “In a room along with my Kiss posters, hand drawn cartoons and rock albums, I also had a collection of glass Avon cologne bottles that my grandmother had given me.

“Each one was shaped like a different car, and I think it was the Excalibur that sent my mother to the hospital one night. She had come home late and wouldn’t tell me where she had been.

“Suspecting her of cheating, I lost the temper my father handed down to me and threw the bottle at her face, opening up a bloody gash over her lip and scattering cheap perfume and shards of blue glass across my floor.

“She still has the scar, which has served as a constant reminder never to have another child.”

Marilyn wrote:“In the altercations that followed, I hit her, spit on her and tried to choke her. She never retaliated. She just cried, and I never felt sorry for her.”

Barbara died following a battle with dementia aged 68 in 2014.

Manson subsequently described his late mother as “the first and greatest believer in me”, adding: “I’ll make you proud and satisfied that you know that you made the son you wanted.”

The rocker’s account of attacking his mother follows another troubling revelation from the book in which he admits plotting to murder an ex-girlfriend by setting her on fire.

STARS SLAM MANSON

Manson’s former mentor, Trent Reznor, has also been forced to deny a resurfaced claim from the book that said they sexually assaulted an intoxicated and blindfolded woman, whose pubic hair Marilyn claimed to have set on fire.

The Grammy-winning Nine Inch Nails frontman, 55, said: “I have been vocal over the years about my dislike of Manson as a person and cut ties with him nearly 25 years ago.

“As I said at the time, the passage from Manson’s memoir is a complete fabrication. I was infuriated and offended back when it came out and remain so today.”

And Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland, who was a member of Manson’s band for less than a year in 2008, labelled the singer a “bad guy.”

“Every single thing that people have said about him is f**king true... He’s amazingly talented, but he’s f**ked up and he needs to be put in check and he needs to get sober and he needs to come to terms with his demons. He is a bad f**king guy,” he said.

EX SPEAKS UP

Marilyn’s ex-wife, burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese, 48, broke her silence on the matter overnight.

In a statement, she said: “Please know that the details made public do not match my personal experience during our seven years together as a couple.

“Had they, I would not have married him in December 2005. I left 12 months later due to infidelity and drug abuse.

“Abuse of any kind has no place in any relationship. I urge those of you who have incurred abuse to take steps to heal and the strength to fully realise yourself.

“This is my sole statement on this matter. Thank you for respecting this request.”

The Sun revealed that police were called to Manson’s LA home on Wednesday for a welfare check following a “disturbing incident”. The performer has been dropped by his record label and removed from two US TV series in the wake of the recent allegations.

Sources told TMZ that a worried friend called police after failing to get hold of him, but a rep for the star communicated to police that he simply “didn’t want to come out”.
