Winchester Mystery House

Historic House · San Jose, California

A 160-room mansion in San Jose that Sarah Winchester, heir to the rifle fortune, extended continuously for 36 years until her death in 1922. It has staircases that end at ceilings, a door opening onto a two-storey drop, 2,000 doors and 47 fireplaces — and the popular explanation, that she built to confuse vengeful ghosts, is largely a legend invented after she died.
