MARILYN Manson "bragged about having a 'rape room' in his home" years before the bombshell abuse accusations surfaced, Phoebe Bridgers claims.
The singer took to Twitter on Thursday after Evan Rachel Wood and others alleged that the rocker, whose real name is Brian Hugh Warner, was abusive to her.

Phoebe, who was recently rumored to be dating Irish actor Paul Mescal, tweeted about a disturbing experience she had in Manson's house years ago.
The Motion Sickness singer claimed: "TW: I went to Marilyn Manson’s house when I was a teenager with some friends. I was a big fan.
"He referred to a room in his house as the “r*pe room”, I thought it was just his horrible frat boy sense of humor. I stopped being a fan.
"I stand with everyone who came forward," she said, before blasting his management and other alleged enablers of his behavior.
"The label knew, management knew, the band knew," she claimed. "Distancing themselves now, pretending to be shocked and horrified is f***ing pathetic."
Phoebe accused singer Ryan Adams of sexual misconduct in a New York Times article in 2019, accusations the singer denied.

Adams was recently cleared of texting an underage fan after an FBI probe stemming from the Times' article.
Her comments about controversial rocker Manson, 52, comes after cops flocked to his Los Angeles home to conduct a welfare check on him after the allegations made headlines.
Police officers were called to Marilyn's house just after 6pm on Wednesday night due to reports of a "disturbing incident," The Sun revealed yesterday.
According to TMZ, officers arrived to the scene shortly after a worried friend called "concerned for his-wellbeing."
The outlet said a pal of the entertainer feared "something happened to him" - after they did not hear from Marilyn for hours.

An eyewitness told The Sun that police knocked on the 52-year-old rocker's door but no one answered.
After initially leaving, law enforcement went back to Marilyn's home two hours later, around 8pm, and attempted to speak to someone at the residence. However, once again no one answered.
The Sun's exclusive footage shows LAPD cops entering Manson's property on their second visit.
The cops eventually left after an officer was able to get in touch with the star's rep, who assured he is fine and simply "didn't want to come out," TMZ reported.
In addition to a heavy police presence on the ground, a LAPD helicopter also circled the house throughout the night while shining a spotlight on the property.
A rep for Marilyn did not immediately respond to The Sun's request for comment.

The incident occurred just days after Westworld actress Evan Rachel Wood shared a social media post Monday that named Marilyn - born Brian Hugh Warner - as her alleged abuser for the very first time.
Seven other women came forward with claims against the heavy metal shock rocker, including former porn star Jenna Jameson, models Ashley Lindsay Morgan and Sarah McNeilly, and an ex-employee Ashley Walters.
However, Marilyn – who is now married to Lindsay Usich – denied the allegations in a statement on Instagram.
He wrote: "Obviously, my art and my life have long been magnets for controversy, but these recent claims about me are horrible distortions of reality.
"My intimate relationships have always been entirely consensual with like-minded partners. Regardless of how - and why - others are now choosing to misrepresent the past, that is the truth."
