Located in San Jose, California, the Winchester Mystery House is perhaps one of the most famous haunted houses in America. It was once the residence of Sarah Winchester, the widow of a famous firearms manufacturer. This mansion is renowned for its bizarre architecture. With staircases that lead to nowhere, doors that open into walls, and windows that overlook other rooms, the house was designed to confuse and trap the spirits that the owner believed were haunting her. Legend has it that the ghosts of those killed by Winchester rifles still roam the halls!
The Amityville Horror House
The Amityville Horror House in Long Island, New York, is infamous for the DeFeo family murders that occurred in 1974. Shortly after, the Lutz family moved in but fled just 28 days later, claiming they experienced terrifying paranormal phenomena. They reported strange smells, slime oozing from the walls, and the sounds of a phantom marching band. The story was turned into a bestselling book and a series of horror films.
