"Sarah 'Sallie' Lockwood Winchester (née Pardee; 1839 – September 5, 1922) was an American heiress who amassed great wealth after the death of her husband, William Wirt Winchester, and her mother in law, Jane Ellen Hope. Winchester has become known for the construction of Llanada Villa which, six months after her death was turned into a tourist attraction now known as the Winchester Mystery House. She has been depicted as superstitious, guilt-ridden and crazy. Records show that those who knew her found her to be intelligent, kind, a savvy financial manager, and not superstious.
