If you missed our cover story in the northforker, you can read it online at https://northforker.com/2026/10/house-of-mystery-the-hidden-history-inside-southold-towns-oldest-residence/. Writer Stephanie Villani did an excellent job recounting many of the stories that surround the Old House on the Village Green.

Built centuries ago, the imposing, nearly noir-hued “Old House” on the village green in Cutchogue still hides myriad secrets. In the current age of shiplap, wraparound decks, chef’s kitchens and spa bathrooms, many might not give much thought to what it was like to live in a Colonial-era house...

Ghost Hunting on the Village Green
Become a part of a paranormal investigation, just like the ones you see on television and YouTube! On October 24 , the L.I. Paranormal Investigators are coming to the Village Green in Cutchogue for an exclusive tour of the Wickham House and the Old House. The Wickham House is the house that harbored the axe murderer Nicholas Bain, who brutally murdered Francis and James Wickham in 1854. The Old House has stood on the site for over 300 years, has housed enslaved people, and has an interesting Revolutionary War story. After the team has had a chance to collate, examine, and interpret the findings, a follow-up of what was found will be presented in the spring. Follow-up from last year’s event shows evidence of haunting in the buildings you will be visiting. You will learn about the history of each building, witness a live paranormal investigation, and learn about the scientific methods that are used. There are two sessions, with one starting at 6 pm and the second at 8 pm. Report to the Schoolhouse and dress warmly. Register for the 6 pm or 8 pm tour. Meet at the School House on the Cutchogue Village Green for the introduction. Purchase ticekts online at https://events.com/r/en_US/tickets/ghost-hunting-on-the-village-green-southold-october-1075893 . Tickets are $60.00+ ticketing fees and will be available for sale in September.

Thank you to everyone who attended and who brought their cars to the Cutchogue-New Suffolk Historical Council & Museums’ North Fork Vintage Cars’, Rock and Roll Car Show on the Village Green in Cutchogue. Three trophies were given out. There were tours of the historic buildings, food, raffles, and music by DJ Gerry. All proceeds of the show went to fund the Youth Scholar program for paid internships for students of the Mattituck-Cutchogue High School to work at the Council in 2027. If you know of any Mattituck-Cutchogue High School student who might be interested in a paid internship, let us know! The show was in memory of Charlie Cali, who was the president of the LI Moose Car Club. He helped the Council run the Car Show for the last four years. There was a tribute to him midway through the show. The show featured an excellent cross-section of cars, including many rare, costly, and unusual examples.
