In the first episode of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, we are introduced to Ichabod Crane, the quirky and lanky schoolteacher who comes to Sleepy Hollow, a small, quiet village nestled in a secluded glen. The town, shrouded in mystery and known for its eerie tales of ghosts and supernatural happenings, sets the perfect stage for the story. Surrounded by rolling hills, shadowy forests, and a sense of enchantment, Sleepy Hollow has an air of timelessness and superstition, drawing Ichabod into its haunting charm.

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving is public domain.
Content Disclosure: "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” was written in the early 1800s, and as such, it contains language and references that reflect the societal norms and views of that time. Some of the terms and subject matter, particularly the use of the word 'negros,' are no longer considered appropriate or acceptable today. While I’ve chosen to omit a particularly offensive passage, it's important to acknowledge these outdated views as part of the historical context. Please be mindful of this when sharing the story, especially with children."
