7 Cheap Destinations to Celebrate Halloween This Year

The real-life Sleepy Hollow, near the Tappan Zee Bridge, is a must see for more literary Halloween and Washington Irving fans. Philipsburg Manor transforms its grounds into Horseman’s Hollow, filled with vampires, witches, and the Headless Horseman himself. Take a lantern tour of Sleepy Hollow Cemetery to see Irving's grave and enter the crypt of notorious vampire Barnabas Collins. For tamer fare, listen to the reading of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow at the Old Dutch Church.
