The Making of a Ghost Story: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
“The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” by famed author Washington Irving, is widely considered to be the first “ghost” story in the then young country’s history. The tale of a headless horseman in a quiet, unassuming New York town, often resurfaces every year around the time of Halloween. But Irving didn’t invent the idea of a headless rider, nor did he base the story entirely on fiction. Find out more about the American classic, in this episode of The Missing Chapter.
