Mystery House
The KN79-93 section of the Winchester Mystery House, located in San Jose, California, is a maze of narrow passageways and rooms that branch off from a central hallway. This section of the house, which is thought to have been constructed in 1922, is known for its illusionary effects as it tricks the eye with its numerous turnarounds, angled walls, and ceilings. This area is believed to have been constructed so that Sarah Winchester, the home’s former owner and Winchester Repeating Arms heiress, could confuse the spirits that she thought were haunting her. The area is not open for public tour, and its passageways are blocked off to the public.
