SATURDAY
EVENING EVENT
AN EVENING AT THE WINCHESTER MYSTERY HOUSE
Experience a unique evening at the famous Winchester
Mystery House. Attendees will enjoy complimentary light
hors d'oeuvres and a no-host bar while strolling through
the home's beautiful gardens, greenhouse (weather permitting),
museums, and gift shop. Exclusive flashlight
tours of the mansion will be offered to all
participants, a special treat offered to the public
only on Halloween and every Friday the 13th.
During the tour, attendees will pass through 110 of
the 160 rooms and look for the bizarre phenomena that
give the mansion its name: a window built into the floor,
staircases leading to nowhere, a chimney that rises
four floors, doors that open onto blank walls, and upside
down posts! No one has been able to explain the mysteries
that exist within the Winchester Mansion (or why Sarah
Winchester kept the carpenters hammers pounding 24 hours
a day for 38 years. Make your plans to join us for a
fun-filled, if eerie evening. Free
to all registered attendees, flashlight tours are limited
to the first 300 participants. Shuttle transportation
will be provided between conference hotels and the Winchester
Mystery House.
