What if a ghostly rider without a head haunted your every step?
In The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Washington Irving weaves one of America's most enduring ghost stories-a chilling blend of romance, folklore, and supernatural suspense that has captivated imaginations for over two centuries.
Set in a secluded glen where mystery clings to every tree branch and tales of the otherworld echo through candlelit gatherings, Ichabod Crane is the superstitious and bookish outsider who believes every ghost story he hears. When he begins courting the wealthy and flirtatious Katrina Van Tassel, he not only invites jealousy but awakens the wrath of a phantom that stalks the darkened roads: the infamous Headless Horseman.
This masterful tale explores the fine line between reality and myth, and whether our greatest fears are conjured by shadowy forces-or by our own minds.
