"Built in 1860, this stunning national landmark is a quirky architectural wonder that looks like something Tim Burton and Wes Anderson might have collaborated on. The Octagon House is especially great to visit in the fall, when pumpkins decorate the veranda and they offer a “Myths & Mysteries” tour fitting for Halloween. You’re not in for any jump scares, but lots of spookiness nonetheless—including fascinating discussions of Victorian spiritualism and mourning practices. Afterwards, it’s a short drive to Sleepy Hollow for some Headless Horseman-centric tourism, or toCandlelight Innfor wings." - Molly Fitzpatrick
