Nothing becomes October better than the Old Dutch Church in Sleepy Hollow, N.Y. Even if you can’t make a performance of story teller Jonathan Kruk as he brings Washington Irving’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow alive, a walk through the graveyard alone will give a visitor some seasonal chills.

See Washington Irving’s grave, admire the dramatic graveyard art, then head home by passing the place where the headless horseman bridge once stood.
