The sound of screams and chainsaws pierced the night at Joralemon Park on Saturday, October 19. For nine years the Coeymans Hollow Volunteer Fire Company has put on Horror in the Hollow, a spectacular haunted hayride that attracts hundreds of people to this town park.

The Hilltown Hags danced and entertained guests.
In addition to the haunted hayride, the New Baltimore Fire Department served up hotdogs and other snacks. There was a bounce house, dancing witches from Hilltown Hags and goodies provided by Trinity Methodist Church.
While Horror in the Hollow was hosted by Coeymans Hollow Fire Company, many organizations helped make the scary night a reality.
