If you're new in San Jose or even if you've lived there your whole life the Winchester Mystery House is something to check out at least once in your life, I know i did =) Often times peoeple will see signs on the 101 advertising it but never go because they don't know what it is. It is an old house built by an old lady from the Winchester family who was quite eccentric. She built weird stairs, weird corners, etc. It is quite fun for kids young and old to go and check it out. They even have night tours which can be quite spooky especially if you go on Halloween or Friday the 13th.
