Tourists have not been allowed to take photographs as far back as 1989. In 2009, well before Lionsgate bought the movie rights, The Asylum movie company released a low budget horror movie called Haunting of Winchester House (2009), and did so without the permission of the Winchester estate, as the house is privately owned and operated as a tourist attraction. It was explained that someone connected with the filmmakers surreptitiously took photographs of the interiors of the house on several of the tours in an effort to get schematics of enough of the floor plan and of the interiors. The estate has never allowed filming inside of the house or grounds for that reason. Due to the age of the house and the condition of the Victorian interiors, flash photography has never been allowed on the tours.
