It doesn't make as good of a meme, but I think a better analog would be a house that looks fine on the outside, but is completely absurd on closer inspection. Like, random plumbing, 90% of which is unused. Five bedrooms and zero bathrooms. A basement door with no stairs behind it.

Like the house they built for Ned in the Simpsons

Doors with too many doorknobs (none of which work to open the door)

Having been there and heard the real story about why it is the way it is, the Winchester house makes a lot of sense.

No that's place makes WAY more sense.

0/10, none of the window frames are melting into each other. Literally uninhabitable.

You see, the thing is that this particular house actually required a lot of skill and planning to make
