Hello my lovely squirrel friends!! So Kate and I swapped this week, so we are going to be talking about the spooky, possibly haunted, Winchester house. The Winchester Mystery House is a mansion in San Jose, California, that was once the personal residence of Sarah Winchester, the widow of firearms company owner, William Wirt Winchester. Since its construction in 1886, the property and mansion were claimed by many to be haunted by the ghosts of those killed with Winchester rifles. Under Winchester's day-to-day guidance, its "from-the-ground-up" construction proceeded around the clock, by some accounts, without interruption, until her death. So come on in, have a seat, and squirrel off with us!
