The legend of Sleepy Hollow

Descrizione prodotto

The story is set in 1790 in the countryside around the Dutch settlement of Tarry Town (historical Tarrytown, New York), in a secluded glen called Sleepy Hollow. Sleepy Hollow is renowned for its ghosts and the haunting atmosphere that pervades the imaginations of its inhabitants and visitors. The most infamous spectre in the Hollow is the Headless Horseman, said to be the ghost of a Hessian trooper who had his head shot off by a stray cannonball during ‘some nameless battle’ of the American Revolutionary War, and who ‘rides forth to the scene of battle in nightly quest of his head.’
