Sleepy Hollow: Cozy Fall Vibes, But Lacking Halloween Magic
Excited for a fall getaway, I booked a stay at a nearby castle in Sleepy Hollow for October 2024, drawn in by the allure of picturesque autumn scenery and Halloween vibes. However, my trip didn't quite match the hype. With the castle’s restaurant and spa closed and Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown farther apart than I’d anticipated, I faced some unexpected challenges. While I did discover some beautiful sights, like the serene Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, many experiences left me wanting more. From an impressive Great Jack O’Lantern Blaze to underwhelming local eateries, my adventure turned into a bittersweet exploration of charm versus expectation. Curious about what went wrong and what you can do to make the most of your visit?
