This edition of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow includes an introduction and afterword by Charles L Grant.

Sleepy Hollow is a strange little place... some say enchanted. Some speak of its haunted valleys and streams, the ghostly woman in white, the eerie midnight screams and howls, but most of all they speak of the Headless Horseman. A huge, shadowy soldier who rides headless through the night, terrorising hapless travellers.

Schoolteacher Ichabod Crane is fascinated by these stories... Until one night, as he walks home through Wiley's Swamp, he realises that maybe they're not just stories.

What is that dark, menacing figure riding behind him on a horse? And what is it holding in its hands?

And why has schoolteacher Crane never been seen again in Sleepy Hollow?
