"The story is so famous most locals can recite it by heart: An eccentric widow,
heir to an American rifle fortune, is tortured by the horrors wrought by the
weapon. She becomes convinced only building a labyrinthine house will keep her
safe and, if construction stops, the spirits will find and kill her. The result
of her delusion is the Winchester Mystery House, a monument to madness.
It’s a memorable explanation for the unfathomable strangeness of Sarah
Winchester’s mansion. But, as far as historical record goes, there’s scant
proof for any of it.
The insanity of Sarah Winchester is, in short, a lie."
