After the death of her husband, Sarah inherited nearly fifty percent ownership of the Winchester Repeating Arms company. The company hires Doctor Eric Price (Jason Clarke) to assess Sarah, believing she is mentally unfit to remain in charge of the company. Sarah Winchester believes she is cursed by the ghosts of those who died at the hands of Winchester firearms. With Price invited to stay at the house we find out if Sarah is crazy or if the Winchester house is truly haunted.
