Some of the scenes draw upon events from pioneer days,
such as the fate of the Decker family, Civil War days
in Morgantown, events in Morgantown during the 20th Century.
Special focus is on WVU, with scenes depicting its early
history, its first football team, and the university during
the challenging 1960s.
The story will be told by music,
with musical selections chosen from all the periods
of Morgantown history, from old ballads to Bob Dylan.Sponsored
by the City of Morgantown, through BOPARC under the
direction of Mark Wise. With acknowledgement to Former
Mayor Ron Justice, who has been instrumental in seeing
the project come to fulfillment.

eccentric characters attempt to cope with seasonal traumas

that is being sabotaged by a mysterious Christmas phantom!
