NORWICH – Most of the time the Chenango County Historical Society’s Museum is “ghost-free” but around Pumpkin Festival they appear in the Museum’s rooms and hallways. This year will be no exception. Period rooms will become home to ghoulish visitors and scary scenes for the Eighth Annual Haunted Museum. Visitors may also catch a glimpse of the one true ghost in the Museum, a small dog that can mysteriously be seen from time to time in one of the paintings.

For younger visitors who don’t want to meet up with any ghosts, there will still be plenty of Halloween fun including Halloween games and prizes, and a “Cat and Rat” hunt. Children may also decorate their own “Trick or Treat” bag to take home, and refreshments will be served.
