Local storyteller Jonathan Kruk shares the mysterious lore of the Hudson Valley, best known among them, Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. This exciting volume and its author has been featured in the Travel Channel's Mysteries at the Museum, and helped establish the galloping goblin's origin story. The story of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman is one of America's best known fables, but what other stories does the Hudson Valley hold? Imps cause mischief on the Hudson River, a white lady haunts Raven Rock, Major Andre's ghost seeks redemption and real headless Hessians search for their severed skulls.
