Jane , Bill , Joe , and Fred run to their car and escape the castle grounds , fleeing into the night . They arrive at Bill 's mother 's house later in the evening , but Bill 's mother , angry over a missing necklace that Jane had earlier stolen , directs them to stay in a hotel . Instead , they take motorcycles to Bill 's father 's country house . On the nightly news , they watch as the massacre at the Alexanders ' estate is covered by local media . In the news report , a broken necklace — the one Jane had stolen — as well as a guitar left behind by Bill , is noted as evidence , and it is also stated that Lady Alexander has gone missing . The police surmise that " hippies " may have been responsible , and liken the crime scene to the Tate murders
