If you have a chance or if you are going through San Jose, make a point to stop at the Winchester Mystery House! It is very neat! The sprawling “home” is located in a normal looking city, next to apartments, but it is like nothing you have ever seen. If you have watched “Stephen King’s Rose Red” you might know it was loosely based off of this home, and the heiress Sarah Winchester. The home is huge. There aren’t any spoilers about that, there are thousands of beautiful windows, intricate detailing, state of the art in its day, and not a penny pinched on detail and decor choices. The wallpaper! It was GORGEOUS. The woodwork! The stairs! The flooring! Everywhere I looked, my artists heart was soaring. The place was decorated with era accurate furniture and of course I was drooling. AND it is said to be haunted. We caught a picture that looks kinda spooky, my husband is more convinced than I am. We were out back at the Carpenter’s or black smith area and they have a light there that was on, and we were about to go find our two girls who were 12&13 at the time, they had wandered further on to look at something else- and we were joking that “if theres a ghost, shut off this light.” And the light went off. I’m not kidding at all. And we were kinda like oh that’s a fluke that’s a fluke if there’s really a ghost turn the light back on, and it turned on- and we ran off to find the kids because they are all into it and had their ghost meter things and brought them back and of course it didn’t do it again but it was pretty cool, I haven’t had something like that happen before. We did a whole “ghost Christmas” type thing for the kids in 23. They also had different tours that included spookier parts of the home, so we ended up taking two tours in one day and we left for lunch in the middle. It was worth it and still very interesting and the kids were a bit annoyed but I enjoyed both. The spookier one was more entertaining for my lil ghost hunters (because catering towards that type of thing) and the regular tour was informational and I very much enjoyed it. But I enjoyed both, very much. And I loved looking at all the detail! Every inch of that place was incredible.
