Blog Post 5: Conclusion

Having researched the history of the Winchester Mansion, the many ghost stories surrounding it, and the so-called evidence, I do not believe in the haunting at the Winchester Mansion.  There are no lost spirits there.  There is very little evidence whatsoever except a few people's stories.  Ridiculous claims of apparitions and moving objects are not so convincing to the general public.  Perhaps these "witnesses" are telling the truth, but until some more solid evidence surfaces, no one can be sure of what is happening in that house.  I believe that the strange architecture and eerie history behind the house are simply increasing paranoia and fear.  People always fear what they do not understand and no one truly understood Sarah Winchester's madness.
