Madeiros said the most popular apparition is a former employee at the estate. The folks at Winchester Mystery House call him the Wheelbarrow Ghost.Madeiros said he's seen pushing a wheelbarrow oftentimes in the basement and sometimes in the ballroom tending to a fireplace. They currently don't have any record of his name.Madeiros said Winchester was extraordinarily kind and generous to her employees, so the reported Wheelbarrow Ghost is likely not lingering for any malicious reason.
But spirits or not, Boehme said there is nothing malevolent about the energy in the house, with even psychics visiting and concluding that there's a nice aura about the place.And at the end of the day, while the most highly publicized theory behind the home is based in the supernatural, there are some holes in that theory.Boehme said there's no documentation that Winchester ever suffered from the guilt those killed by a Winchester rifle.
But the years spent remodeling could easily explain them, Boehme said, like the staircase that leads to nowhere.Boehme said it, at one point, actually did lead upstairs, but Winchester decided to put a hallway right above it — so she had a floor built that just covered up the staircase.Another explanation could be that she found it amusing. "I also think maybe she had a sense of humor," Boehme said.But at the end of the day, no one knows for sure.
Boehme said Winchester also didn't suffer from any kind of existential crisis either. She likely wasn't motivated by a desire to avoid death at the hands of angry spirits. Boehme said contrary to popular belief, work on the home did pause occasionally."She knew she was going to die just like everybody else," Boehme said.
