Winchester Mystery House · San Jose, California

Published account

Open to the publicThe Winchester Mystery House is open to ticketed visitors, and the mansion interior is by guided tour only. Private paranormal investigations and overnight stays are not open to the public, and cars parked on Olsen Drive may be towed or ticketed.

The house's operators say that since 1923, guests and employees have reported hearing voices and footsteps when no one was there, feeling an unexpected presence, and seeing figures in the halls. The operators suggest some of the spirits said to linger may be former members of Sarah Winchester's household staff or later museum staff, and state that they cannot say what causes the experiences.
