History
Winchester Mystery House
The fortune teller first meets Sarah Winchester not too long after the death of her husband. As Sarah is about to board a carriage with James, the forune teller, sitting in an alleyway, tells her not to stop having strange thoughts like committing suicide. Sarah, confused, turns to her, and the fortune teller explains that she is sensitive to the "other world". She tells Sarah about the vengeful spirits haunting her, denying her the freedom to love and preventing her from seeing her loved one in the afterlife. Feeling intimidated, Sarah questions the fortune teller, accusing her of being a con artist. The old woman assures her that her predictions will come true; she tells her that she must build a maze-like house to confuse the spirits, and that she must not show her face to anyone.
Years later, when James, disguised as Sarah, is found by the spirits inside the mansion, he rushes to the phone calling the fortune teller and begging for help. The fortune teller tells him that helping him is already beyond her power as she is being strangled by the spirit. She tells him that, since she is being choked by its left hand, the right hand must be with him.
