Getting Acquainted With The Winchester Mystery House


How would you feel if someone announced that a relative have bequeath you with a huge mansion with an added mystery? Ecstatic? Perhaps. That is if you do not believe in ghosts and anything supernatural which are drawn to this house. Would you allow the mystery of the house such as the Winchester Mystery House run away and never look back? If you do then you are running away from the millions of dollars which this great mansion is worth. 


This infamous historic house which is shrouded with mystery used to be the home of Sarah L. Winchester in 525 South Winchester Boulevard, San Jose, California 95128. According to the stories, the mansion is haunted by the hosts of the people who were killed by the Winchester rifles. It is known that William Wirt Winchester, the husband of Sarah L. Winchester is the owner of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company which produced repeating rifles such as the Winchester rifles. To counter the ghosts, she was advised to never stop building the house. If she does then they will die. This is why up to this day that the famous mansion is still being constructed. Another weird thing about the house aside from the lack of master plan is that the doors and staircase leads to nowhere. It is a house of maze which has 160 rooms adorned with gold and silver chandeliers or ceiling light mount fixtures, art glass windows and other decorations which are still not being used. 


A tour in the house sounds exciting and adventurous. But I will never visit alone. There have been several reports of spirit sightings in the house such as a chandelier shaking which was caught on the camera by one of the Staffs.You might say the shaking is due to earthquake but there was no earthquake at the time. But it is up to you to decide if the stories about spirit sightings are true or not.
