Ep 28: Winchester Mystery House
On the 28th episode of Legend Samm and Amy discuss the mysterious circumstances around the Winchester Mystery House. Sarah Lockwood Winchester was an extremely intelligent and beautiful woman born into the upper class of Connecticut society and later became the heiress to the mass fortune of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company after the death of her husband. Was she really shrouded in guilt due to the many deaths incurred at the hands of the Winchester rifle so much so that she sought advice from a medium? Did the medium really tell her that she had to build a house for all the victims of her late husband’s rifle company? One in which she could never stop building on unless she wanted to suffer the wrath of the spirits and face certain death? Or is this all just a legend concocted by people who don’t understand the mind behind the brilliant woman? Join us and find out.
