"[T]he place still continues under the sway of some witching power, that holds a spell over the minds of the good people, causing them to walk in a continual reverie."

Sleepy Hollow won't satisfy if you're looking for good scares, and Ichabod is an unpleasant little dweeb, but the atmospheric descriptions of the drowsy glen are perfect for a slow weekend morning: apple piles ready to be made into cider, corn fields, sunny hills, golden horizons, yellow pumpkins "turning up their fair round bellies to the sun", buttered slap jacks, peach pies... When the witching hour comes, the ghost stories told in Sleepy Hollow come to life, but is everything what it seems?

Tim Burton adapted the story into the darker side of the same coin, but the expansion and all the changes work really well. I don't know how many years it's been since I watched the movie last, but I still loved the muted color palette and the perfect moody atmosphere. A nice way to end All Hallows' Eve.
