[edit] More images
On the house's official site there's a page of photos of the house, including an enormous photo of the house when it was still 7 stories tall (and one of Sarah herself). The page states:
- All photographs may be duplicated, but
- credit for photographs must be given to:
- Winchester Mystery House, San Jose, CA.
What do others say about adding some of these to the article? It could only improve it. :-) —Frecklefoot 14:59, Mar 16, 2004 (UTC)

- Sure, if there's permission (and it seems there is). I'll add it to my "to do" list, but someone else will probably do it before I find time to do it. - Bevo 15:15, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
If I can figure out the coding, I'll do it. :> [Larien]
- You can look here for information on how to use the image syntax. :-) — Frecklefoot | Talk 15:09, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Visit...
I'll be visiting it soon, I'll take some pictures. I plan on doing some EVP-recording there if they let me. :) ---J.S (t|c) 21:16, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Historical Accuracy
Much of this article seems to copy from the "official" story of the Winchester House, most of which cannot be proven and can be disputed. Also, "Winchester Mystery House" is the commercial name of the property, and it obviously would have never been called this while it served as a residence.
While I haven't had a chance to read them, I know there are at least two Master's thesis projects in the San Jose State University library that dispute the validity of the Winchester Mystery House story.
- I'm not sure that thesis projects themselves would be considered proper sources, but they may have bibliographies that point to other published sources. However, that sort of information would seem valuable to include if you can find a good source for it. E. Ripley 02:52, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
