Ichabod Crane...
Hereafter will be the beginning of the legend of Sleepy Hollow...
There have always been stories told around the fireplace at night around this time of year of ghosts, ghouls and goblins, but none such as that of the Headless Horseman. A Hessian trooper who lost his head in some nameless battle to cannon fire. He now rides around in nightly quest for his lost head. This used to scare even grown men at night. Now, in the small town of Sleepy Hollow, there was a schoolteacher in the 1790s named Ichabod Crane who vanished one Halloween night. Ichabod Crane had fallen in love with a young woman named Katrina Van Tassel. However, there was another who coveted her hand, Abraham "Brom Bones" Van Brunt. Ichabod lived outside of Sleepy Hollow, through a dark stretch of woods many miles long. So it was, on Halloween night in the year 1790, Ichabod set out from his schoolhouse to go home. The sun was just setting when he left the grounds. As he was leaving, Baltus Van Tassel, Katrina's father, spoke to him, saying "Tonight is Halloween, Ichabod, and you know the legends better than any of us. Stay with us tonight, go home in the morning." However, Ichabod declined, saying only "Since I know the legends better than the rest of you, I know better that they are false." So, Ichabod left Sleepy Hollow that night, never knowing it was to be his last night there...
