HALLOWEEN WITH THE TALE OF THE HEADLESS HORSEMAN

By
Education & Training with Performance Development Strategies

If you are looking for some unique Halloween fun and live in the Hudson Valley I have a great suggestion.

Washington Irving was a great American author who lived here and wrote The Legend of Sleepy Hollow in 1819.  The original town of North Tarrytown, just over the Tappan Zee Bridge changed its name to Sleepy Hollow.  There is lots of history here.

Come to the Old Dutch Church on evenings in October and he master story teller Jonathan Kruk dramically tell the story of The Legend of Sleppy Hollow.

You will hear of the Headless Horseman, Icabad Crane, Katrina Van Tassel, and others.  What a great place to hear this tale at night in the Old Dutch Church next to the old grave yard.

Here is an introduction by Jonathan Kruk

Good morning Grant Schneider ,  Storytelling is an art in itself.  I heard several while at a show in Ripley, West Virginia.  I would really enjoy the storyteller at the Sleepy Hollow Church.

Yes, it's a special time and we are lucky to live here.  Amazing that we still have structures from the 1600's.

Hi Grant... I still remember the first time I read this story in grade school! For some reason, I never did get up to Sleep Hollow in all the years I lived in NYC.

Hi Kathy  - There really is a lot to see in all of the Sleepy Hollow Restoration.

Hi Nina - it is amazing how we live in an area and don't see everything.
