Winchester Mystery house is kind of a weird experience. It's cool to see what money can get you even back when this was built.
I came out of the tour honestly just saddened for Sarah Winchester the owner who had it built. If memory serves she was incredibly superstitious and after her husband died moved out west on the advice of a fortune teller of all people. And kept building and building the house again on a piece of advice from a fortune teller.
She also apparently owned a massive amount of land, 161 acres that included that house in what is now San Jose, CA.
Can you imagine what that land would be valued at today? I imagine who ever got that land got it for nothing compared to what it's worth now.
She loved gardens though and I can't knock her for that. The ones they preserved are beautiful but I believe she had several times more of gardens being taken care of. It must have been quite the sight back in the day.
