The Legend of Sleepy Hollow: Hidden History in an American Ghost Story

Description

"Americans love a good ghost story—and what better time to indulge this guilty pleasure than Halloween? This season we’re looking back to what might be the OG of all-American ghost stories, Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, which celebrates its 200th anniversary this year. First published in 1820, the short story has inspired countless adaptations, perhaps most famously Tim Burton’s 1999 Sleepy Hollow, starring Johnny Depp as a squeamish and fearful Ichabod Crane."
