Or, if you’re really looking for a taste of the Winchester Mystery House a real place watch Ghost Hunters.

If the Tour Lead position wasn't a thing, the house would be one of the best places to work. And there are many better haunted-house films. I didn't go into the job looking for pay, even if the wage was pretty decent. I loved cleaning the house and taking care of a historical property. The home truly is amazing, with stairs going to nowhere, a seance room, and simply for the Victorian architecture. Even if you are scheduled for 8, you might only get 5 if they run out of tours on slow days, or if they don't decide to schedule you a lunch because they don't lay attention.Īs for tours, I loved being a tour guide and working with the public. despite also being told on hire that I would be guaranteed hours.

Oh and I was also told upon hire that I was the "lowest rung" in the company when I simply went to ask about why hours were so short and that seniority takes priority. They also don't tell you about 'slow season' where for the first half of the year, you will only work close to 7 days a MONTH if you're lucky. If you aren't in with a lead, you will be by yourself and ignored. Training is brief and asking questions is met with attitude.

If you're sick, you will still be expected to do a full 8 hour shift, despite the lies of being told you can be accommodated for upon hire. Issues are written off and ignored, they're incredibly cliquey and mismanaged with no upper checks and balances, they lose timecards and expect you to use a mobile app to manage everything. The leads who are tour essential bosses don't know anything about managing a company, let alone workers. I've only been working a few months but I've begun to miss my old retail job in that time span.
