Program Description

Event Details

Ladies and gentlemen, children of all ages—step quietly now, and listen closely...

Tonight, we cross the threshold into a place not marked on any map—a misty glen tucked deep in the haunted hills of New York’s Hudson Valley. A place where whispers ride the wind, shadows stretch longer than they should, and the hooves of a phantom horseman echo in the dead of night.

This is Sleepy Hollow—a village lost in time and legend, where reason gives way to superstition, and the line between life and folklore grows deliciously thin.

Washington Irving’s timeless tale has chilled readers for generations, and tonight, by flickering light and creaking floorboard, we invite you to join us in that ghostly little hamlet... where Ichabod Crane once walked, where the Headless Horseman rides still, and where the end of the story is anything but guaranteed.

So settle in... leave your skepticism at the door... and prepare to be transported.

The tale begins now...

 

 

This event is appropriate for those aged 10years and older!
