Tickets cost $20 a person, and are on sale now for this immersive 90-minute experience that combines live theatre, ghostly encounters and a spine-tingling wagon ride through the haunted Hollow, according to a news release.
They can be purchased online at btpd.org/tickets and in person at Perry Farm House & Exploration Station. Tickets are going fast. There will be a limited number available each night.
Visitors will witness the mystery of Katrina Van Tassel and her confrontation with the Headless Horseman, a figure that haunts the town of Sleepy Hollow.
