Everyone in Sleepy Hollow knows about the Horseman but no one really believes in him. Not even
Ben Van Brunt's grandfather Brom Bones who was there when it was said the Horseman chased the
upstart Crane out of town. Twenty years after those storied events the village is a quiet
place. Fourteen-year-old Ben loves to play "Sleepy Hollow boys " reenacting the events Brom
once lived through. But then Ben and a friend stumble across the headless body of a child in
the woods near the village and the sinister discovery makes Ben question everything the adults
in Sleepy Hollow have ever said.
