Construction began in 1886, and didn’t stop for 36 years until Sarah’s passing in 1922. Mrs. Winchester lives on in legend as a grieving widow who continuously built onto her small farmhouse to appease the spirits of those who were felled by her family's firearms company.The dizzying Victorian-style structure features many odd and mysterious features. There are doors that open to walls, stairways that lead to the ceiling, and many more oddities in the massive mansion.
