Have you ever been to the Winchester Mystery House gift shop? The gift shop, now called The Mercantile, enjoyed a recent refurbishment that makes it so much easier to explore and discover treasures to take home as souvenirs— or to pick up a fun game or trinket to occupy the kids on your drive home!
