Reviews of winchester mystery house12/11/2022 ![]() ![]() Instead, the lack thereof makes the film dull and stands out as just another low-budget, ghost-on-the-loose horror flick. Detailing and emphasizing the history and mystery of the house will make the film more unique and original. Also, make the effort of having the house located in a city like in real life, rather than sequestered in the woods. If you're going to have the Winchester Mystery House portrayed in a film, at least make the characters explore the many different and eerie aspects of the house like the staircase that leads up to the ceiling, door to nowhere, the séance room, Winchester's bedroom, the garden, the 7-11 staircase, emphasis of the number 13, etc. There was no effort in elaborating the history behind Sarah Winchester nor the many different rooms, secret chambers, doors and hallways in the house. Sarah Winchester, the heiress who kept construction on the house going non-stop for 38 years to appease the spirits of those killed by the Winchester firearms, was portrayed as just a lost soul looking for her long lost daughter (why she could not find her daughter in her own darn house is beyond me). ![]() This film was Winchester in name only, elaborating very little on the real-life Winchester Mystery House. However, this film fails to deliver that notion and instead is a campy, low-budget, and unoriginal movie. With all the horror movies made in the USA involving a haunted house, you would think one that features one of the most famous haunted places in the world (Winchester Mystery House in San Nose, CA) would feature a unique and compelling story. ![]()
