A headless rider. A frightened schoolmaster. A tale that haunts to this day. Step into the misty woods of Sleepy Hollow, where legends live and shadows ride. The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is Washington Irving's most famous and chilling tale—a gothic masterpiece of early American fiction that blends folklore, fear, and dark humor. Set in a quiet Dutch settlement in New York's Hudson Valley, the story follows Ichabod Crane, a superstitious schoolteacher whose life takes a terrifying turn after an encounter with the infamous Headless Horseman.
