I’ve never been to Winchester House but I’ve walked by the Whaley House. However, there’s an old inn in Julian, Ca, that is haunted. I know because the former owner came and checked on us while we were sleeping. I woke up. Surprised me but he was just being a good innkeeper. (My kind of ghost.) I found out later I wasn’t the first.

I'm not sure I'd want a former good innkeeper. I like my sleep too much, but I guess a good innkeeper might know not to wake me. LOL

I’ve never visited the Winchester House, because it always looked to me like a tourist trap. But it would be cool to see it, architecturally speaking. I’m afraid I don’t believe in ghosts, though they are fun additions to some stories :).

Patricia, here’s good wishes for your husband to get a new job ASAP and you to get a little time for your writing again.

I'm not sure what the Winchester House is like now, but it was fun when I was a kid. They had a room downstairs with tons and tons of beautiful Tiffany lamps and art work.

It's probably more tourist trappy now than it used to be, but I'd still like to visit.

Thanks. I appreciate the good vibes.

Since starting work on my book I've discovered there are dozens of haunted house stories just in my county ... however, there are only a few that seem to have real merit. I treat them all the same, of course--I have a book to write.
