Visited the Winchester Mystery House today and took a couple of tours and it was awesome!!
Never was I not thinking about Ryan and Shane, the fucking legends-
Wish I had caught some evidence in my photos but alas, it was not my lucky day.

i just reblogged that post about saying nice things abt prev but i wanna send an ask too, so: thank you for being one of the only people to be correct about the winchester mystery house and sarah herself!! so many people spread the stories of her being weird/crazy/whatever when she was just. a woman who suffered some tragedies and liked architecture.
i went on a tour of graceland recently and was intrigued by how they barely talked about elvis as a person, whereas winchester tours are basically a trap where you think you're getting to explore a weird fucked up house but actually you're going to hear about how wonderful sarah winchester was for an hour and if you say anything mean about her design skills one of the tour guides will push you out the door to nowhere.
i go through your winchester tag sometimes when i'm nostalgic and missing the house (i got laid off during quarantine) and it's just nice to see that even people who didn't devote years of their lives to the house can genuinely understand and appreciate it.
I'm so glad it's gotten better! Someone once anonymously told me the guides had to sign a contract saying they would only stick to the story made up by that ridiculous carnie family that bought her house in the 1920s, and even though it was an anon and therefore unverifiable...I believe it, sadly. For Profits often are more about...well, profit. As opposed to history. But it's good to know the guides care about getting the truth out there.
In Sarah Winchester I see a woman whose character assassination for being different(tm) has carried on after death. It's not that she was perfect- far be it from me to lay perfection at the feet of a white 19th-century gun fortune heiress -but she seems like a genuinely caring person in many ways, about her workers and her community. She was an unattached woman of means with an unconventional hobby (architecture), though, and that seems to have made wagging tongues nervous. During her lifetime that meant claiming she thought she'd live forever if construction never ceased (it did, several times), and after- well. The tale of the mad widow fleeing from invisible ghosts has come to prevail.
It feels unfair to me that she should forever be remembered by what her detractors said about her, instead of her own triumphs and setbacks, merits and flaws. And that her beautiful house, where she poured so much love and attention, should be so misrepresented. I'm glad people are trying to fix the narrative.
#sarah winchester#ask#winchester mystery house#lakesandquarries#spoiler alert for those who didn't know: she was NOT trying to hide from ghosts of Winchester rifle victims#she was just passionate about architecture and had the money to make that her Hobby#it's widely believed among historians that the 'doors and stairs to nowhere' are remnants of house sections destroyed in the#1906 earthquake and never rebuilt#the 'seance room' I've been told is just an attic storage room converted after her death- she would have held seances in the parlor#with tea to follow#like a normal Victorian

Too all fans and Buzzfeed Unsolved and Ghostfiles: while I love and appreciate the dedication of Shane and Ryan to tell the real history of locations and not solely telling stories of ghosts, I do implore you to do your own research as there are times in which Shane and Ryan make mistakes or the history of a place is too vast to cover elegantly in a short video.
The most notable example of this is the Winchester House in which they unknowingly perpetuate the rumors of Victorian socialites who were distrustful of a grieving woman who wanted to be left alone, Kaz Rowe made an excellent video going over the real history of the Winchester house, I'll attach it here for ease and I suggest everyone watch it (her other stuff too this gal is incredible)

insane to me that we never got an episode of supernatural set in the winchester mystery house. i need there to be an 11/22/63-style time rift at the top of one of the staircases to nowhere that’s sending tourists back to like, 1899, and the brothers have to go through to rescue them and meet sarah winchester and debunk all the myths around her work and the “ghosts” that haunted her. or something
#you cannot tell me that sam winchester would not be OBSESSED with the winchester mystery house#like cmon#idk i’ve never given much thought to writing case fic but…….. i might have to write this#ALSO!!! this is an excuse for the boys to meet 1901!cas#imagine dean praying to cas and a hot edwardian lady shows up#supernatural#spn#winchester mystery house

god my urge to fight Ry*n and Sh*ne GhostF*les in a parking lot grows ever-stronger
now they're jumping on the "Sarah Winchester was CRaAaAaZY!!!!" bandwagon
like genuinely fuck off. they remind me of my middle school bullies more than anything and they clearly don't give a shit about research
nice job giving the exploitative carnie family that's controlled the mansion since the 1920s more power over the popular narrative about the house and its architect, assholes
