The crew will be using all of the parking spaces along Pike Street and Crogan Street near the courthouse for their trucks and equipment, said Lisa Sherman, Lawrenceville's director of economic and community development.

Perry Street will be closed and one lane of Clayton Street, adjacent to the courthouse, also will close for trucks loading in and out on the set.

"Sleepy Hollow" premiered on Fox in 2013.

It portrays a fictionalized version of the New York town of Sleepy Hollow and is inspired by the 1820 short ghost story by Washington Irving.

Much of the show has been filmed in North Carolina. But the majority of Season 3 was filmed in Lawrenceville and Conyers.
