I have a neighebor with the exact name of Sarah Winchester, she is quite old, She always talked about how she has like flash backs or visions of a giant house and speaks to spirits. We decided to show her the wincherter mystery house that she knew nothing about. The Whole time she had been acting funny but when we entered Sarah Winchester's room she started saying how it was hard to breathe and then fainted. When she came too she told us that she saw herself die in the bed and rushed out. Never speaking of it again

I had my Ghost Radar App running. It was on the entire time with no problems until we entered the Seance Room. I was the last one in and had to close the door. After closing the door I looked to see if there were any ghosts. The top half of my screen went black, then the rest of it went black. I started the app again and it was fine during the rest of the tour.

My wife and I were at the end of the tour group and I felt someone put their hands on my upper arms from behind behind me. I looked and there wasn't anyone, at least no I could see. It wasn't a hard grip, but, rather a soft gentle one. But, it was sort of chilly

I had gone to the House only once, and this was the time. We had just gotten off a Disney Cruise and went exploring around California. We stopped here and took a tour. As we went to Sarah's room, my brother took a picture of her bed. As we looked at the picture on his camera, we saw Sarah sleeping in her bed!

I know its a little weird but while me an a friend were in the elevator shaft I heard what sounded like an elevator sliding at a high speed towards the ground then it suddenly stopped. I asked my friend if he heard anything he said no... creepy...

me and my friend were in the basement then there was a strong wind then all of a sudden something appeared in front of us. we tried to touch it but it disappeared
05/08/11, 12:00AM at the Basement by jasmine&felicity
i was standing by the glass door waiting for the tour to begin when i felt like a tap on my back, when i turned to see what it was i noticed it (i.e. it wasn't windy that day either), but in that same second i felt like a hard pressure as if the door wanted to open by force. so i moved and then i felt a really cold breeze hit my face. then i felt sick and dizzy for about 20 minutes. i don't think it can be considered paranormal but it sure was strange.

I quit my job as a tour guide yesterday, and something wierd happened. I didn't bieleive in ghosts, so I never payed attention to strange things in the house. Yesterday, my last day, I had the urge to say something. I got done cleaning Sarah's bed, then I said "Thank you, Sarah. You brough this house, which means you brought me my work, and my money. Plus, you brought me my house, too. I am so thankful."
Why did I say that? I don't know. It jsut came out. As soon as I went out of the room, I saw a floating orb, and something moist went onto my cheek. I walks calmly, but quickly, outside, and went home. I looked at my cheek, there was a bit of lipstick. I have the feeling she had kissed me on the cheek. Now I visit every month, no longer nwervous of the house.

The tour guide was walking us around and i kept smelling pea soup or lentil soup cooking in the ktchen.The smellfiled the house and after about a 1/2 hr. i had i finaly asked "what soup is that cooking ?" well the little tour guide turned pale and said "the kitchen hasn't been functunional in years."My mom tried to smell it couldn't the party tried to smell it couldn't no body could smell it BUT i did and have to laugh every time i hear anything about the house they mention the pea soup...hhmmm i wonder if that was me.

I took several pictures of the parlor from several different angles, and when I got the pictures developed, there were 3 orbs in the same spot over the table in every picture, regardless of angle.

I had brought my young sons to visit the mystery mansion the youngest was 3, the next youngest was 5, and the oldest was 10 years old. We had a fairly new RCA camcorder with us. I had done many videos with it and become well aquinted with it and how it worked. It was filming just fine. We bought our tickets for the mansion tour and proceeded to where the tour began. I was filming the boys and we parked the stroller. As we approached the mystery house the camera was working, as soon as we entered the mystery house the screen went black and nothing would record. I had feelings throughout the house, I have a special gift for that sort of thing and have predicted many things as well as spoken to dead relatives and they would tell me thing that were going to happen and later did. Anyway we went through the tour, Feeling dissapointed the camera was not filming. As soon as we exited following the tour the camera turned back on and started filiming everything we aimed it at. I do say clearly it turned back on, I had turned it off after a bit of time in the mystery house not filming like it should. It turned itself back on. To this day we recount that memory. My youngest son turns 24 this month, I am hoping to drive up on our way to visit in Petaluma from Orange County and he wants to see the mystery house now that he is old enough to remember everything he will see on the tour. We hope to be there on April 29th, 2011. I am bringing another camera Sarah, I intend to get video this time.

I was looking through the window and something touched my back. I turned around and nothing was there so I kept looking out the window. Suddenly something touched me again and i turned around and a woman in a white dress was staring at me and I ran away.
