At the time of his disappearance, he was residing in his home in Indio, California, going over property renovations to get it ready for sale.He mysteriously disappeared and only about five weeks later, on July 26, Adamson's brother called police to file a missing person's report. But he had been home all this while, buried and rotting under the floor of his house.Police lifted the flooring in one of the rooms that housed the hot tub to make the harrowing discovery. Investigators said that the hot tub had been taken apart and the corpse buried deep underground, covered in concrete and soil. The ground above the tomb has just been tiled. His brother had a sneaking suspicion that something was awry since Adamson loved the tub and would not have given it up without a fight.2) His body was discovered in a mummifying state in his Indio homeAdam Cesare@Adam_CesareThe @SeverinFilms Al Adamson set has landed.

He looked like a mummy since he was naked and covered in linens. The demolished hot tub area served as the filmmaker's tomb after his skull was crushed after he was brutally murdered.Lt. Bruce Bower reportedly compared the scene to one of those from the filmmaker's horror movies, calling it an "ironic twist." He said,"The guy made some pretty gruesome movies with bodies turning up all over the place. So finding his body where we did is a pretty ironic twist."3) Al Adamson's killer, Fred Fulford, soon became a wanted manAccording to police, Adamson recruited Fred Fulford months ago to finish remodeling his two-story house, which is situated in the midst of an orange grove. The two were supposed to work as partners - Fulford was to work on renovations while Al promised to share the profits after a successful sale of the property.While talking about Adamson's Indio property, Lt. Bower said,"It was pretty remote. There weren’t too many neighbors within earshot."gavcrimson@gavcrimsonAnyone know if Al Adamson's killer, Fred Fulford, ever got released?
