SUMMARY:J.W. Ocker Book Talk: 'Chasing the Headless Horseman' at Lyndhurst
DESCRIPTION:Just in time for Halloween\, Lyndhurst welcomes back Edgar Award–winning author J.W. Ocker for a talk on his new book — a preview before its official September 29 release. \nChasing the Headless Horseman: The History\, Hijinks\, and Halloweens of the Real Sleepy Hollow investigates the town that inspired Washington Irving’s “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” Blending travelogue\, cultural criticism\, and behind-the-scenes reporting\, Ocker digs into the tensions between tourism and tradition\, profit and preservation\, fiction and fact — telling the story of how one small town reinvented itself as America’s Halloween capital\, complete with statues\, street signs\, and an 18-foot Headless Horseman. For readers who loved what A Season with the Witch did for Salem\, this does the same for Sleepy Hollow. \nOcker’s other books include A Season with the Witch\, Twelve Nights at Rotter House\, The United States of Cryptids\, and The New York Grimpendium. He’ll be available to sign and sell books after the talk. \nKnow before you go: \n\nGeneral admission $10 + service fees; talk runs about one hour\nNot recommended for children under 12\nThis ticket does not include mansion access\nArrive 15 minutes early; check in at the ADA-accessible Welcome Center\nTickets are non-refundable; the talk may sell out\n\nWhy this is a must for Sleepy Hollow visitors: This is the definitive behind-the-scenes look at your own backyard — the real town behind the legend\, told by one of the sharpest writers working in the macabre. Come for the talk\, then go see it for yourself: the Horseman statue\, the Old Dutch Church\, and the haunts that made Sleepy Hollow America’s Halloween capital. \nWant more? On October 10\, Ocker returns for an evening panel at Tarrytown Music Hall with four Horseman-inspired novelists — and every $35 ticket includes a signed hardcover. See the Music Hall panel →

SUMMARY:An Ode to Francis Saltus Saltus
DESCRIPTION:A night of verse about wives\, wine and the grave\, from a wickedly witty Gilded Age poet!\nJoin Sleepy Hollow Cemetery for an evening in honor of illustrious poet\, linguist\, musician and scholar Francis Saltus Saltus\, a name so nice\, they gave it to him twice. \nFluent in 10 languages\, the ambidextrous Francis was said to be able to write sonnets with one hand while simultaneously composing opera with the other. He was quite a character\, to put it mildly. \nThe epitome of “live fast\, die young”\, Saltus penned classics like Flasks & Flagons\, an ode to 31 beverages including tea\, hot chocolate\, coffee\, water – and 27 kinds of alcohol. It’s no wonder he died at age 40 in 1889. \nEnjoy a reading of his delightful poems and quaff an adult beverage or two to get in the right spirit before visiting his grave. It will be the perfect way to pay our respects to the talented Mr. Saltus! \nAges 21+. Seated indoor event; runs rain or shine (grave visit weather permitting). \n\nAn Ode to Francis Saltus Saltus is just one stop on Sleepy Hollow Cemetery’s 2026 special-events calendar. This fall\, you can also catch dramatic readings of Dracula\, Frankenstein\, Jekyll & Hyde\, and The Time Machine; step into an interactive Murder Mystery inspired by Washington Irving’s most famous tale; sip Champagne Cocktails with the Dead among the cemetery’s grandest mausoleums; and paint your own Headless Horseman alongside artist Heather Gleason. See the full lineup and reserve your seats at sleepyhollowcemetery.org/special-events.
