TL;DR

Corrupted gameplay footage of Winchester Mystery House (Barrels of Fun, Expo 2025 announcement).

Summary

This is a heavily corrupted or ASR-transcribed gameplay video of the Winchester Mystery House pinball machine from Barrels of Fun, announced at Expo 2025. The audio transcription is severely degraded and contains numerous errors, making it difficult to extract coherent rule information. Key gameplay elements visible through the noise include: spinners for building spirit energy, spider web shots, ball locks in the seance room, candle lighting mechanics, and multiball modes.
