“In the dark shadow of the grove, on the margin of the brook, he beheld something huge, misshapen, black, and towering. It stirred not, but seemed gathered up in the gloom, like some gigantic monster ready to spring upon the traveller.”
Ichabod Crane, a schoolteacher, came to Tarry Town in the glen of Sleepy Hollow to ply his trade in educating young minds. He was a gullible and excitable fellow, often so terrified by locals’ stories of ghosts that he would hurry through the woods on his way home, singing to keep from hysterics. Until late one night, he finds that maybe they’re not just stories. What is that dark, menacing figure riding behind him on a horse? And what does it have in its hands? And why wasn’t the schoolteacher ever seen in Sleepy Hollow again?
Read Alikes for The Legend of Sleepy Hollow: Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving; Young Goodman Brown by Nathaniel Hawthorne; A Chronicle of Wolfert’s Roost by Washington Irving; Horseman by Christina Henry
