Filled with colorful characters who will delight revelers of all ages, this daytime festival is a perfect prelude to an evening at Blaze, Horseman’s Hollow, or Irving’s ‘Legend.’ Listen to ghost stories, hear live musicians, and be awed by a bevy of magicians, puppeteers, and a spooky mime scarecrow! Take part in old-fashioned games and hands-on activities like make-your-own scarecrow. Enjoy tasty treats and tour the house where Irving lived until his death in 1859. Visitors are encouraged to come in costume!
