The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
About this book
? Who rides through the night without a head—and why does he haunt Sleepy Hollow?
Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (1820) is one of America's earliest and most enduring ghost stories. Set in a quiet New York village, the tale follows the superstitious schoolmaster Ichabod Crane, whose courtship of Katrina Van Tassel is overshadowed by the terrifying legend of the Headless Horseman.
With its blend of eerie atmosphere, sharp wit, and folklore, Irving's story captures both the humor and horror of early American life. The haunting chase through the dark woods has become one of the most iconic scenes in all of literature.
