Sleepy Hollow, New York
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Situated on the banks of the Hudson River, the town of North Tarrytown, New York was immortalized in a short story called "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow". Published by Washington Irving in 1820, the story told of a decapitated spectre called the "headless horseman" who haunted the hills above the town. The association was so enduring (and so helpful to property values) that the town voted to officially change its name to Sleepy Hollow in the 1990's. Here it is from above in this drone video by Chris Bonano.

Beautiful spot on the Hudson River, just north of the Tappan Zee Bridge. Used to be called North Tarrytown but they changed the name to Sleepy Hollow in the 1990's because that's what it was called in the George Washington Irving stories.
