A bone-chilling TV adaptation of Washington Irving's classic 19th century short story about an awkward, bookish schoolmaster named Ichabod Crane (Brent Carver), an ill-fated love-triangle and, of course, the horrifying Headless Horseman. Get set for a mystery that has enthralled American families for generations.

The Headless Horseman Rides Again...

In the night, no one can hear you scream.

Starring Tony Award winner Brent Carver and Rachelle Lefevre, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow faithfully recounts the classic Washington Irving tale, successfully capturing the mystery and romance that have eluded other screen efforts. Connecticut Yankee Ichabod Crane (Carver) arrives in the rural Dutch community of Sleepy Hollow and assumes his position as the new schoolteacher. Though the outsider is widely regarded with suspicion, the daughter of the area's wealthiest farmer, Katrina Van Tassel (Lefevre), is charmed by his manners and education. But Ichabod's attentions to the lovely Katrina are not welcomed by handsome blacksmith Brom Bones (Paul Lemelin), and when Brom tries to scare Ichabod by posing as the "Headless Horseman" of local legend, they are paid an unexpected visit-leaving behind a mystery that has enthralled audiences for generations.
