Local history doesn’t have to be boring and ghost stories aren’t always scary. A few of the buildings moved to the Genesee Country Village and Museum brought their previous owners along for the ride. A fatal fire in 1964 took the lives of six children a few days before Christmas, the spirit of the holiday lives through laughter and playful footsteps. And on a Cayuga Lake college campus, the ghost of jealous wife wields her knife at the spot where she killed her husband’s mistress. These are just a few stories passed down through the years and witnessed by the living.
