Sleepy Hollow is a village in Westchester County in the state of New York in the United States of America. In 1996 residents of the village voted to change its name from North Tarrytown to Sleepy Hollow to distinguish it from the adjacent village of Tarrytown. Sleepy Hollow continues to share a zip code and a school system with Tarrytown, but the two villages are separate municipalities.
