Autumn Midnight in Sleepy Hollow

Ride beyond the last lanterns of Tarry Town into a late-October night shaped by river fog, fallen leaves, and distant hoofbeats. Inspired by Washington Irving's Sleepy Hollow, this instrumental playlist blends period-acoustic chamber folk with restrained gothic suspense: fortepiano, gut strings, wooden flute, dulcimer, and a measured pulse for reading, writing, studying, or wandering through old stories after dark.
