“Long ago, a new schoolteacher arrived in the small town of Sleepy Hollow. He was tall and thin, like a scarecrow, with a small head and a pointy nose. His name was Ichabod Crane.” I like this quote because in this version it shows Ichabod as a schoolteacher, but in various other versions, he‘s a detective or a doctor.

I like that Disney was able to take this story and change it. It just enough to wear kids can enjoy the classic story of Sleepy Hollow. I think this will also peak children‘s interest and could motivate them to read the real story. This could even foster a love of reading.

This story has always been a very interesting one. I know the story very differently than the one I read here. This makes sense because it seems that lots of traditional literature books are told tons of different ways. The story of Sleepy Halloween is usually very scary but this version makes the story a fun light hearted version that kids can enjoy.

⭐️⭐️.5/5

My kind of ghost stories. Love my copy of Poe. Bought it at Poe‘s one time home in Philadelphia.

@TheBookHippie so this is my copy of Sleepy Hollow… will we be reading all of the stories, or just that one?

I saw the movie when I was a kid and it was insta-love!
Same with the short story that I just read.
It's still creepy but not scary as it is in the Burton's masterpiece ❤
