2025 Event Description
The Headless Horseman Rides Again Saturday, September 27 and October 4th!! We encourage everyone to dress in period costumes. Why? For the fun of it!!!
And, come in costume and get a free haunted hayride. If one of our staff likes your costume, they will give you a wristband for a free hayride!
**There are two performances in 2025. September 27 and October 4. Please plan to arrive at the winery by 5:30pm each day to ensure you see all of the performances and the Headless Horseman ride. Due to weather conditions on that day, the times are approximate because the performances must be concluded before dark.
Relive the Legend of Sleepy Hollow with townspeople Katrina, Brohm Bones, and of course the famous horse ride between Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman!
