Legend & Lore  |  Raven Rock 

“Nowhere in this part of the country are the ravens to be found, though it is thought that they may have been plentiful a century or more ago. The crows, who are known to be inveterate neighbors of their larger cousins, perhaps drove them out. Upon their exodus these birds of ill omen left their names in more than one lonely spot, to couple with dark associations.\"

One of the most enduring ghost stories in Sleepy Hollow is that of the wailing woman of Raven Rock, a cliff located in Rockefeller State Park Preserve. We owe this ghost to author Edgar Mayhew Bacon, who recorded her legend in Chronicles of Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow.

\"Raven Rock is a detached portion of the steep, rocky, eastern side of Buttermilk Hill, which a deep fissure has long separated from the mass, and the fragment, becoming independent territory, set up a mythology of its own.\"

According to Bacon, a woman wandered off a path the night of a blinding snowstorm. She sought shelter from the storm in the ravine below Raven Rock, where the snow drifted over her. She never wakened from that night and ever since her spirit appears to lost wayfarers \"with cries that sound like the screaming of the wind, and gestures that remind one of the sweep of snowdrifts, warning others away from the spot that she found so fatal.”
