If you are a fan of the original Sleepy Hollow Story that follows Ichabod Crane and a mysterious headless horseman, you need to check out the modern version, which reimagines the story as a supernatural thriller.

The series lasts four seasons and blends horror with history to deliver a unique spin on police procedurals that will have you binge-watching each episode.

A compelling storyline with historical roots

In this story, Ichabod Crane, a Revolutionary War soldier, awakens in the present day, only to discover that his arch-nemesis, the Headless Horseman, is terrorizing the town of Sleepy Hollow. He needs to partner with the modern-day police department to put an end to it.

One of the biggest draws of the series is the way it incorporates real historical events and people, like George Washington, into the story. Crane also has flashbacks to the American Revolution, which adds an extra layer to the story, making it a great watch for fans of historical fantasy, horror, and mystery alike.

Favorite characters

The dynamic between Crane (played by Tom Mison) and Lt. Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie)is a big part of what makes the show work. Crane’s adjustment to modern life after centuries adds a humorous element, while Abbie’s bravery and steadfastness make her a relatable and strong protagonist. Other great characters include Jenny Mills, Abbie’s sister, and Frank Irving, the Sheriff, who each add to the storyline with their encounters with dark forces.

In later seasons, the series introduces even more allies and threats, with Carne traveling to Washington, D.C. This expansion helps to reinvigorate the plot and keep it interesting, with new challenges for Crane and his team.
