Fall Trip

We went to Sleepy Hollow, NY to see the Headless Horsemen. We went to the Jack O'Lantern Blaze. That was amazing. All the hand carved pumpkins and funkins. The Headless Horsemen and his horse looked great. It was so much fun.


This is the sign saying Welcome to Sleepy Hollow.



This is Ichabod Crane being chased by the Headless Horsemen.





This is one of the many many crypts that are in the Sleep Hollow Cemetery. This cemetery is so big. I have never see so many crypts in one place before. They were amazing. We saw the sight of were the original bridge was from the story. The cemetery added another bridge that sounds like horse hoofs are chasing you. Be sure to put your window down and drive slow so you get to hear it.

The Headless Horsemen and his Horse. It was so cool he would make the horse rear up and he would come up out of the dark. All you could see is the pumpkin glowing. I would go back anytime to see this again.




After spending the weekend in Sleep Hollow, NY we headed to Salem, MA. I was there 10 years ago and I loved it and wanted to go back every Halloween since. This year, however was a little different. I am not sure if people think Halloween is Gothic or what, but we did not have a great time. Some of the stores we went into were great while others gave us the creeps. Whenever I am around bad energy it is like walking through glue. A lot of heavy metal rock in some of the store and others just seemed like they were there to cash in on Halloween. Almost like no one had the true meaning of Halloween.





This is the Primitive Village located about 10 minutes outside of Salem. Hocus Pocus was filmed here for the beginning of the movie.




After that we traveled south to VA. We visited family and had a great time shopping at our favorite little area. We met up with my Aunt and had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend going to Sleepy Hollow, NY for some good Fall fun.
