Synopsis
Sleepy Hollow is an American fantasy mystery drama television series considered as a "modern-day retelling" of the 1820 short story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving.
In this modern-day twist on Washington Irving's classic, Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to unravel a mystery that dates all the way back to the founding fathers. Revived alongside Ichabod is the infamous Headless Horseman who is on a murderous rampage in present-day Sleepy Hollow.

Sounds far-fetched right? Thinking its going to look like the picture right above right? Well sadly it won't and don't let that nugget of detail ruin this experience because from what I've seen so far these writers have this set for a whirlwind of fun. The setting and character build up makes this all slowly believable and if you can jump on board with this its seriously  a great ride.

The costumes, props and backdrop really pull together in this, especially the flashbacks and "Visions", letting you immerse yourself into this crazy world without feeling like a headless chicken.

If you've not see this yet, find it on Netflix or wait for the UK premier because this is like "Once upon a time" and "Supernatural" merged into one. Trust me, once you're in, you'll lose your head.
