Hulda's Night

25 Sleepy Hollow Road,Sleepy Hollow NY 10591

26 October, 2022

Description

You walk through the night, your path lit only by lanterns. The dark woods surround you as does the chill in the night air. Your group joins a traveler around his fire and listens to local legends (The Storyteller). But your journey has only begun, and you must not tarry. Up Old Gory Brook Road, Domine Johannes Ritzema, Pastor of the Old Dutch Church during the Revolutionary War, waits to tell you the struggles of holding a congregation together during the time of war and of the witch living nearby threatening his flock (Pastor Ritzema’s Story). The coyotes sing as the moon rises and reminds your group that it is time for the last part of your journey. As you trek down to the Witch's Spring trail, in the distance the magical fairy lights tell you that you are nearing Hulda's Hut and the "witch" awaits you! Here you sit in hand-carved seats made from the very trees that surround you, on the site where Hulda's home may have stood nearly 250 years ago, and hear her tell her story (Hulda’s Story). _____________________________________________ Please arrive 15 minutes early, all groups leave promptly at their start times.
