*As Seen In Hudson Valley Halloween Magazine & Featured In Vacations Made Easy*

The names of the famous and the infamous, both historic and legendary, have left their mark on this quiet Hudson River village 25 miles north of Manhattan. Defying the passage of time, this magical area has managed to preserve much of the history and natural beauty which have always drawn people to it. In addition to its great history and fabulous legends,Sleepy Hollow continues to hold its most famous legend of all: The tale of the headless horseman.

But what many do not know, is that the legend of Hulda the Witch, a Sleepy Hollow character, is a character you won't find in Legend. 


Hulda was a real person, an imegrant from Bohemia and a witch, who made curious herbal remedies for the near-by villagers when they fell ill. Today, tourists from all over the world visit the famed Old Ducth Cemetery in search of her unmarked grave. Each year, witches from across the country, gather with Sleepy Hollow's own resident witch, Krystal Madison-Corvin (top right photo on right) and celebrate Hulda's life, legend and legacy in what is the now the annual Festival of Witches.
