On a dark and spooky Hallowe'en night, the quiet village of Sleepy Hollow is shattered by loud, unearthly screams. The wicked witch is up to her tricks. To scare the village people she has turned herself into the ghost of a headless horseman! But Ichabod Crane comes bravely to the rescue. With his dog and his horse and the sleepy old man Rip Van Winkle, Ichabod the hero saves the day.
