Explore more mystery
The Explore More Tour is returning to the Winchester Mystery House starting May 25, when guests can explore sections of the house never before accessible to the public.
“Among our most frequent requests is the chance to delve into rooms previously off-limits to guests,” Walter Magnuson, executive director of Winchester Mystery House, said in a release.
The tour is designed to give guests more insight into the house’s 36-year construction process and the stories behind some of its more iconic features.
Tickets for the Explore More Tour are available at winchestermysteryhouse.com.
