#WINCHESTER MYSTERY HOUSE SAN JOSE FLOODING WINDOWS#
(There are 13 bathrooms, many windows have 13 panes, chandeliers have 13 candles, and so forth.) Her biographer casts doubt on this story, however, and offers up an account from a carpenter who worked on the property for many years who claimed that architectural elements, such as chandeliers and windows, were altered after Winchester's death. According to proprietors of the house, she was fascinated with the number 13 and worked the number into the house in many places. Immediately, she began spending her $20 million inheritance by renovating and adding more rooms to the house, with work continuing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year for the next 38 years.
It stood on 161 acres (0.65 km2) of land in what is now San Jose, California. In 1884, Mrs Winchester moved west to California with her sister and her niece, and in 1884, she purchased an eight-room farmhouse from John Hamm. However, Sarah's biographer found no evidence to support these claims and Sarah likely did not move west because a medium told her to do so. The medium is claimed to have told her that if construction on the house ever stopped, she would join her husband and infant daughter. A Boston medium, Adam Coons, believed to be a psychic, allegedly told her that the Winchester family was cursed by the spirits of all the people who had been killed by the Winchester rifle and that she should move west to build a house for herself and the spirits.
According to the legends surrounding her, she felt that her family was cursed, and sought out spiritualists to determine what she should do.
