I'm in this only 2: 39 minutes, but I wanted to say this. I think I had heard that she was contacting or trying to contact spirits, and they told her something like she will die the moment she stops construction on her house. That's why she was constantly building, and it didn't matter how it was built as long as it didn't stop. I think I also heard something about the spirits telling her HOW to build the house, and that's why it's configured in such a crazy way.

What's fascinating is that Sarah Winchester's construction never
stopped for over 38 years workers built around the clock, seven
days a week, until the day she died. Some historians argue the
maze-like design wasn't about ghosts at all, but about a woman
using architecture to cope with grief and isolation after losing
her husband and daughter.
The real mystery isn't whether it's haunted it's what she was
actually running from.

I remember reading in a book on ghosts a long time ago, I'm talking 40 years here, where it stated you could stay in a haunted house all night and not have an encounter with a ghost. I'm sure there are people who live in haunted houses, who have been there for decades, who still yet have to see the ghost allegedly haunting it.

It’s a great idea to put that old-film filter on STILL PHOTOS! Otherwise, how would we know we’re looking at old STILL photos And for someone like me (very poor vision, the more crap you put in your content, the better because it makes details harder to see. Good job.

Is this mansion cursed
As someone whose visited it several times - no, that was a marketing ploy to make the mansion famous and draw tourists. The truth is far more boring.
BUT it is a very beautiful mansion and is very much worth the visit

Imagine being the local San Jose city zoning and building permit officer in 1890, just trying to review a blueprint, and Sarah Winchester hands you a 7-story maze with a door that opens directly into a two-story drop to the ground.

Right off the bat, you tell a lie. We have letters written from Sarah in which she explicitly states that she sent workers home. I would recommend watching Kaz Rowe's video on the subject.

Finds a coffin in the master bedroom, opens it, and finds a mutilated vampire inside of it
I know this is the wrong episode, but: EVERYONE GET IN THE CAR! WE’RE LEAVING THIS TOWN!

I loved touring this place. Honestly, good on that medium for telling a rich person that the products that made them rich will haunt them forever. That's the funniest thing that happened.

Ghost of an old lady watching the contractors working, I don't suppose that could have been the old lady who hired those same contractors, watching them working.
reply

You missed to mention Stephen king's Rose that was produced way before those newer production and it was inspired by the house
