The best fun in October is a spooky story; and THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW is the very first American ghost story.

Icabod Crane, the lean, lanky, superstitious schoolmaster, competes with Sleepy Hollow's rowdy Brom Bones, for the hand of young Katrina Van Tassel, only daughter of a wealthy farmer. Bones and his pals play a series of pranks to drive away the jittery schoolmaster. The tension is brought to a head at the annual Van Tassel Harvest Party. Bones entertains the guests with a dramatic replay of his encounter with the terrible Headless Horseman. Later that night, Icabod's lonely walk home in the dark, turns into a frightful experience for the schoolmaster and a spine-chilling good time for the audience!
