Friday The 13th Flashlight Tour Of The Winchester Mystery House

I want to go dancing in Sarah Winchester's ballroom.

I also would like to have enough money that I would be called visionary, like Mrs. Winchester was, rather than a complete nutter.

I don't think I've ever heard her called a visionary.

Still, I think you would certainly be able to spend that much money interestingly.

I would start with a Atlas missile silo and tracking station rather than an 8 room farm house.

Shame there's no more Winchester brand apricots.

Do you know the size dimensions of the ballroom?
I have friends that are cozy with management there, if we could book the venue...

No, sadly I don't. It's not all that big, probably comparable or a bit larger than the dancing space at the Plough, but it is breathtakingly beautiful. It's also almost as acoustically perfect as the Curia building in the Roman Forum with that same 9 sectioned ceiling.
