    A very atmospheric village, steeped in history. Interesting stories and scenery. It does have an eerie vibe. Unusual and different tour. Very seasonal! I’m really enjoying this, as always. The trees are beautiful colours. Thank you for showing us around and sharing your knowledge.

      I think everyone should decorate for the holidays its a shame that half the places in america don't want to do that people that have money don't want to be a part of the holidays are stingy with their own time

    In the early 1970's Duracell (the battery company) had its headquarters in Tarrytown on an old mansion estate, and its Northeast Distribution Center in North Tarrytown (now Sleepy Hollow). I worked in both places. At that time it was known as the Mallory Battery Company. The original Duracell batteries were all black then and didn't become today's "copper top" until 1975. In 1976 we relocated everything to Bethel, Connecticut. Thanks for the memory. 🤠

    just discovered this channel. My life is 70% better now that i have it in my life. I just hate how hard it is to find channels and content that will make me happy. One because there is too much of it to filter through. Two because most of the time i have no idea what i want! Who knew i would love to watch someone walk around and talk for an hour? How can the universe expect me to seek something like this out on my own? What other treasures are awaiting for me, that i won't discover for 2, 5, 10 years?!?!

    This was great thank’s for posting this. They cancelled all of their Halloween events in 2020 due to Covid-19. They usually have cornucopia in early September to kick off the fall. They also have the Horseman’s Hollow Haunted house at the Phillipsburg Manor, Lyndhurst manor,m tour, haunted hay ride, a Halloween parade and you see the headless horseman riding around the cemetery. The legend of Sleepy hollow, sleepy hollow light house tour, story telling of the legend of Sleepy Hollow and day and night cemetery tours. I think they kept the cemetery tours only and the play at Sunnyside which is sold out. Thanks again it was a lot of fun watching this.

There's some little shops, The Music Hall, a good coffee shop, and nice eateries like Horsefeathers! Also, the grounds of Lyndhurst are fun to explore, but farther away! Right before you get to the Old Dutch Church, there's a little park with a metal Headless Horseman Statue, and a gas station with a Headless Horseman blow-up that we like to take pics with!

    Love my small village!But the traffic during October is crazy here. Unfortunately at lot of halloween events were canceled this year because of Covid, they usually happen on Beekman ave. (Hunted hay rides through the cemetery, haunted house, halloween parade, and many more, I see people coming in buses from other cities for the events. New Broadway has a lot of Halloween decorations because that street is closed on the 31st because so many people take their kids trick o treating on that street. Also, there's less decorations because of covid. Here when you have decorations is s sign that you will be giving out candies lol. So people will knock on your door if they see lights and decoration.

Complete with pigtail wig. vest knee socks. and class room. So have an connection to the story there. there are many many places in Upstate Ny and surrounding areas into Berkshire Ma.

    When u pass street signs angle ur camera at them slowly, so that ur viewers can know exactly where ur at if they ever decide to visit. Sometimes u mention the streets, and it’s not clear. The town is great for a weekend visit to a bed and breakfast. Many ppl like to her away for a lazy weekend. So, showing street signs give them an indication which areas they’d like to walk by as well.

    Yes, they renamed North Tarrytown to Sleepy Hollow in 1996 to capitalize on the connection to the Washington Irving story. Until the mid-90's, there was an automobile factory in North Tarrytown on the banks of the Hudson River which was a major source of revenue for the local area. But then the factory shut down, and they decided to use the area's association with The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow to generate tourism revenue, especially in October.
    (When I first visited Sleepy Hollow about 5 or 6 years ago, I walked down Beekman Avenue toward the river, and the spot where the factory was located was still an empty lot just beyond the Metro North rail lines. More recently, a residential housing development has been built in its place.)
    With the exception of 2020 due to the pandemic, more and more Halloween-themed events and attractions are held in and around Sleepy Hollow with each passing year.

    Washington Irving's niece married one of Pres Van Buren's son. He and his wife grew up near the Reformed Church and attended it for the rest of their life.
    I live one hour West of Albany NY and have never been to Sleepy Hollow or Tarrytown NY. But know that Tarrytown is known for psychics. Guess most everyone is in that group?
    The bread and apples sure did look 'very good and fresh' You are right.
    Thank you for sharing this trip!.

    The eagle statues that guarded Grand Central where scattered after that station's demolition almost a hundred years ago. At the end of this video ActionKid finds one of those eagles publicly displayed at the North Tarrytown Railroad. Another of the eagles is not too far from it's original roost in the food court at Lex / 43rd Street. One on Vanderbilt Ave / 42nd Street. Now out of the city... one in Centerport at Willie Vanderbilt Jr's Eagles Nest ... two in Garrison at one time Yankee owner Jacob Ruppert's Eagles Rest ... one in Kings Point ... one in Shandaken, NY...
    Now, AK, hunt down the owls from the old New York Herald.
