“We’re kind of in a position where we sort of wait and see,” said Celine Vacher, a 20-year resident of Los Feliz and the vice president of communications for the neighborhood council. “I don’t know what the plans are with the new owner.”

Carolyn Quinn, a motion picture story analyst who has lived down the street from the LaBianca house for nearly 16 years, said she hoped Mr. Bagans wouldn’t “exploit” the house’s history. During her time in the neighborhood, she overlapped with residents who had lived there during the Manson murders. One neighbor, Mary Keck, passed away last year at 94.

“Hearing her stories, it’s like, these were her neighbors and her friends who were murdered, and it caused terror in the neighborhood for months and months before they knew what actually happened,” Ms. Quinn said. “Even though I didn’t know them, they were important to her, and that to me is part of our neighborhood history: them, as neighbors.”

Ms. Quinn added that she thought of the slain couple whenever she walked by the house.

“I do think of what happened in the house, and I just try to think good thoughts for the LaBiancas,” she said.
