Winchester House 2

Legend says that Sarah Winchester talked to a psychic, who told her that her family had been cursed by the souls of those killed by the Winchester rifles. To appease those vengeful spirits, Sarah was to go West, buy a house, and keep building. Building forever, the psychic supposedly told Sarah, would enable her to live forever. In 1884, Sarah moved from Connecticut and purchased an eight-room farmhouse in what is now San Jose, where she began building.
