Sleepy Hollow, New York - Headless Horseman Bridge Off Route 9 in Sleepy Hollow, you will come to the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. If you follow the main road of the cemetery, you will ride parallel to a stream with a small rapids, and come to a small wooden bridge that townspeople know to be the Headless Horseman Bridge (some say it was on route 9). If you read the Headless Horseman, the path of Ichabod's chase goes down a grassy knoll, across the bridge, and when you make a left, the Old Dutch Church is still visible on the right. The Cemetery has the Van Tassel's graves, along with Washington Irving, the Rockefellers, an Old Dutch Graveyard, The Old Dutch Church, and a lot of other great spots.
There's an old monument with a woman sitting in a chair that Suburban Legends say wakes up and roams the cemetery at night. [Liz Altman, 06/21/2003]
