Ichabod Crane It was a headless horseman!

Baltus Van Tassel You must not excite yourself.

Ichabod Crane But it was a headless horseman!

Baltus Van Tassel Of course it was. That's why you're here.

Ichabod Crane No, you must believe me. It was a horseman, a dead one. Headless!

Baltus Van Tassel I know, I know.

Ichabod Crane You don't know because you were not there! It's all true.

The Burgomaster Constable Crane! This is a song we have heard from you more than once. Now, there are two courses open to me. The first, is to let you cool your heels in the cells until you learn respect for the dignity of my office...

Ichabod Crane I beg pardon. But why am I the only one who can see that to solve crimes, we must use our brains, assisted by reason, using up-to-date scientific techniques?

The Burgomaster Which brings me to the second course. There is a town, two days journey to the north in the Hudson Highlands. It is a place called Sleepy Hollow. Have you heard of it?

Ichabod Crane I have not.

The Burgomaster An isolated farming community, mainly Dutch. Three persons have been murdered there, all within a fortnight. Each one found with the head lopped off.

Ichabod Crane Lopped off?

The Burgomaster Clean as dandelion heads, apparently. You will take these experimentations of yours to Sleepy Hollow, and there you will detect the murderer. Bring him here to face our good justice. Will you do this?

Ichabod Crane I will.

The Burgomaster Remember, it is you, Ichabod Crane, who is now put to the test.

Ichabod Crane The millennium is almost upon us. In a few months, we will be living in the nineteenth century. But our courts continue to rely on medieval devices of torture.

Ichabod Crane How often do I have to tell you? There is no Horseman. There never was a Horseman, there never *will* be a Horseman!

[Pulls a pendant off of The Magistrate's neck]

Ichabod Crane What is that thing?

Samuel Philipse My talisman. It protects me from the Horseman.

Baltus Van Tassel The horseman was a Hessian mercenary sent to the shores by German princes to keep Americans under the yoke of England. But unlike his compatriots, who came for money, the horseman came for love of carnage. When battle was joined, there you'd find him. He rode a giant black steed named Daredevil. He was infamous for riding his horse hard into battle, chopping off heads at full gallop. He had filed his teeth down to sharp points to add the the ferocity of his appearance.

Ichabod Crane Doctor Lancaster, Reverend Steenwyck, Notary Hardenbrook, and Magistrates Philipse, who tried to cut and run, and lost his head. Four frightned men, arguing on the very night Magistrate Philipse was killed. There's a conspiracy here. The doctor, the reverend, the notary, and the magistrate. What is the secret that unites them? Magistrate Philipse knew there were five bodies to four graves, knew the widow was pregnant, but would not tell me the name of the father. What does this point to? We must proceed by a process of elimination. I shall make a list of every man and woman in Sleepy Hollow, starting with their chief citizen, Baltus Van Tassel. I feel we're getting very close.

Young Masbath Yes. I suppose Baltus is the chief citizen, now that old Van Garrett is dead.

Ichabod Crane Yes. The Van Garretts. I had almost forgotten them.

Ichabod Crane Come with me.

Young Masbath Where are we going?

Ichabod Crane To Notary Hardenbrook's.

Young Masbath Have you thought of something?

Ichabod Crane Yes. I have.

🧡

Ichabod Crane Katrina... you took the evidence and burned it.

Katrina Anne Van Tassel So you would not have it to accuse my father.

Ichabod Crane I accuse no one. But if there is guilt, I cannot alter it, no matter how much it grieves me. And no spells of yours can alter it either.

Ichabod Crane [opens the book] It was your mother's?

Katrina Anne Van Tassel Keep it close to your heart. It's sure protection against harm.

Ichabod Crane Are you so certain of everything?

Ichabod Crane [Studies the horse tracks surrounding Jonathan Masbath's dead body, and takes giant footsteps] The stride is gigantic! The attacker rode Masbath down, turned his horse, and came back. Came back to claim the head.

[Takes a small bottle out of his bag and starts sprinkling powder near the severed neck. The powder sizzles]

Ichabod Crane Yes. There's a chemical reaction. It shows there was a powerful, singular thrust to the neck.

[Puts on strange goggles]

Ichabod Crane Now.

[Using tongs, he lifts the skin of the neck and a beetle runs out. He shudders]

Ichabod Crane Interesting.

Baltus Van Tassel What is it?

Ichabod Crane The wound was cauterized in the very instant, as though the blade itself were red-hot. And yet, no blistering, no scorched flesh.

Samuel Philipse The Devil's fire.

[On Katrina's apparent guilt]

Young Masbath A strange sort of witch, with a kind and loving heart. How can you think so?

🧡

[to Katrina, who is apparently guilty]

Ichabod Crane It was an evil spirit possessed you. I pray God it is satisfied now, and you find peace. The evil eye has done it's work; my life is over, spared for a lifetime of horrors in my sleep, waking each day to grief. Goodbye, Katrina.

Ichabod Crane We take the Indian Trail to the Tree of the Dead.

Young Masbath His camp?

Ichabod Crane His grave.
