  • i wanna c some scary shit

  • I visited Sleepy Hollow, enjoyed a historical walk through the dutch burying ground and the plantation across the street followed by lunch in a nearby pub. If you think its boring than you are lacking in cultural curiosity. you are probably going to be disappointed not to find the headless horseman, like all the hordes that descend on Salem MA looking for witches.

  • go to sleepy hollow and get you head cut off

  • i want to go there so bad

    and c if the headless horseman is real

  • i live near sleepy hollow!

  • omg i love these type of fashioned villages i would definitely live there!!!! but the headless man scares me....

  • @oOoOMEGAMIOoOo thats not even the actual houes that they show. only in the part where they show the cars driving by in the begining and tht street barely hav any houses on it in tht part. the other houses r philipseburg manor and thts just a tourist thing

  • I wanna go to the Headless Horseman High School!!!

  • @GhettoNinja14 its sleepy hollow high school!!!!!! lol

  • im gunna go there to see if i'll meet johnnhy depp! lol!

  • he still rides.... that i beleve

  • whait its real?..... Well im going to pay a visit somewhere soon.

  • WOAH !! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS,SERIOUSLY !i thought that headless horseman thing just came from Tim Burton's mind .. and Ichabod Crane was not really true ... i just can't believe this !! wattttttaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!

  • for anyone that wants to go to this town DO NOT GO HERE

    theres nothing to do its the most boring, ghetto, shithole town EVER

  • @guitardrumskate i call bullshit.

  • @guitardrumskate fuck off, our town is the only town around that you can do something, ossining is too ghetto, and irvington and briarcliff are just way too white and rich, so dead over there, yonkers is the closest place where you'll find something fun to do other than in Sleepy, plus girls in this town are hotter just saying

  • @aNxello

    okay whatever man, just my opinion. Idk i just hate where I live lol. Btw I think I know you in real life.

  • @guitardrumskate probably this town is real small lol

  • @guitardrumskate stfu bitch, quit being a snob

  • @guitardrumskate next time u go, hope u get jumped

  • @guitardrumskate r u even from ther???cuz i m n i seen more ghetto places b4.

  • i would love to go to sleepy hoollow and face the legendary horseman and you know the head that is missing from the horsemen it is his weakness without the head the horse men can be killed by destroying the head

  • sleepy hollw only comes out in the night not day

  • 200 years later a game designer form Colorado came along and revamped the story and made the town face twice fold the original story ;D

  • Why is it that Tarantinos rock so much? The storyteller reminds me of the English teacher on Beavis & Butthead but much more interesting. LOL. I'm going next year!

  • Sleepy Hollow is a beautiful town.

    I would love to live there.

    George Vreeland Hill

  • what a beautiful area! looks so peaceful and calm! I would love to live there!

  • It's Bruce from family guy to bad he didnt say Oh Noes......

  • the story teller was on something when he wrote the story

  • That storyteller? Completely diesel.

  • Thanks for posting. I love the story of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman and would love to visit the real Sleepy Hollow someday. Looks like a beautiful little town.

  • Easy there Jonanthan...

  • Comment removed

  • !....dot!

  • Thank you very much for posting this video. I did not know that the story was based on an actual town, very cool. :)

  • i actually live in sleepy hollow, its pretty cool that this was on tv

  • The "Headless Horseman" goes back to Ireland, and the legend of the Dullahan, a headless specter who roams the countryside upon a headless horse, foretelling an approaching death. But rather than a Jack O'Latern, he carries his own severed head, with skin the consistency of moldy cheese, and it speaks the name of those who shall soon die. Neat, ain't it?

  • LOL Sean William Scott IS the story teller!

  • chills down my spine.

  • This is my favorite ghost story and it's just not Halloween without it! Man, I'd love to visit this town.

  • i would love to use the headless hollow costume on a horse around town. can you imagine how everyone would be scared shitless!!! haha fantastic!

  • He Still Rides, He Still Rides xD

  • Beautiful landscape! Why do we hear so much of Salem, Mass. and not Sleepy Hollow? Must people die to boost fame? :(

  • @rainewater85 Actually, Salem, Mass is not the home of most witches and most of the witch trials did not take place there. It was in a little town a little ways away that used to be called Salem but is now called some other name I can't remember. I learned this at a witch seminar. I know what you're thinking, WITCH GEEK!!!

  • @TheLouisaGirl <<< They took place in Salem Village which are now known as Danvers/Peabody MA now. I live in Danvers. Modern Salem was called Salem Town

  • The storyteller reminds me of the people in the town that never break character. xDD

  • Explore life as it was for a story set in 1790...with plenty of free black men walking around

  • @Manegarm66 Uh ohhhhhh. Someone pulled out their "race card" deck to win the pot.

  • Loved The Movie

  • The only things i hear are raccoons not hooves lol

  • is anyone els scared? bacaus ive herd pepol have seen a figyur in the woods

  • JONATHAN KRUK CAN TELL THE PANTS OFF ANY STORY

  • Question: What if the headless horseman is not actual one man but two. Because people back then wear cape and large coat. So it's easy to conceal two people. So what if one person is steering while the other is holding the pumpkin head?

  • @dechicken what if washington irving wrote it as a headless horseman, not horsemen?

  • @takarashi2: He did, for "horseMEN" surmises that's there is more than ONE, but in the story, there is only ONE "horseMAN".

  • i am fascinated with the legend

  • dude im a total halloween freak so salem, mass. and sleepy hollow are target destinations for me haha

  • sleepy hollow is the most fasicnated stories on the planet and so i think i will go there one day and inestigated it myself and hiopfully have a glimps of the headless horsemen myself

  • @christopherearlgoody you mmight see sal tarantinto instead

  • Jonathan Kruk rules!

  • LOL @ STORY TELLER HAHAAHAHAHAHA

  • awh, this makes me want to go there so badly!!!! i am a history nerd

  • Jonathan Kruk is the Best Storyteller of the Hudson Valley!

  • sleepy hollow probly one of the coolest and most brutal names for a place.

  • who's Jonathan Kruk?

  • the storyteller

  • I've been there. It was at Halloween too.

  • awesome. r there festivals?

  • Yep

  • For the record, Jonathan Kruk is NOT gay. He is my darling husband and we are happily married and deeply in love. Best not to judge people without knowing the truth.

  • I wouldn't worry too much about it, a lot of internet trolls out there. :)

    What an awesome job that would be..a storyteller.

  • @lynn4312 he's a dam gud storyteller! If you guys have any kids i bet they're always askin for stories!

  • @lynn4312 I like Storytellers like your Husband. The dress and manner of storytelling puts the listener back in time or at the scene as it were.

  • Sexy

  • @lynn4312 STFU no1 cares

  • hope they will make another sleepy hollow film live action version

  • I'm sure someone will sometime in the future, wheither it's for film or TV, classic stories like this always have a life of their own and are always good for retelling over the years.

  • Adding this to "places to investigate before I die!"

  • oh so this where the movie come from ! interesting ^-^

  • El "storyteller" parece cristo de Iztapalapa

  • sexton! hehehehe.

    lol

  • my dad worked on the irving estate and went to college not to far from there

  • that's so funny did you see the train go past when they were talking about where the writer lives

  • I have read a book about The Legend of sleepy hollow (:

  • BANKAI!

  • wow this is something .

  • I though is a movie, so is real.....

  • I find it interesting that the teacher's name was Ichabod. That name means "the glory of the Lord departed."  Hmm . . . . interesting.

  • Not really. Most names mean something. You can draw any connection if you read into something deep enough.

  • Did you see that it says this town is the same as it was in the 1700-1800's but there was a black guy walking around with clothes on and walking an animal.sssp not

  • Wow, it looks like such a pretty area.

  • Sheesh, the headless horseman is just Christopher Walken and Ichabod Crane is just Johnny Depp who faints a lot. Get it right, people. LOL

  • can anyone tell me what country should i put so this video wont copyright issue cause i cant play some of videos.. i've put united states and still some videos has copyright restrictions..

  • i love this movie..i love to see heads being cut

  • i like to see paper get cut

  • My theatre program just did this. :|

    I'm sooo tired of it at this point.

  • I just took a test on this story.

  • Jonathan Kruk = the definition of badass

  • okay, i know this isn't really real [like the headless horse man stuff] but with that story teller, Jonathan Kruk, it scared the shit outa me

  • @onemooreperson: Dutch settlers would have your head--pardon the pun--for that. The reason they even told the legend was because they believed in evil spirits and things. In Tarry Town, it was perceived that a true witch or two did exist way back when the story was conceived and it was these old wives tales that inspired Irving to write the story. And since the characters were based off of real people, whose is to say that the legend DIDN'T happen?

  • sweet
