In 1799, New York City police constable Ichabod Crane is dispatched by his superiors to the Westchester County hamlet of Sleepy Hollow, New York, to investigate a series of brutal crimes in which the victims have been found decapitated. Crane arrives in Sleepy Hollow armed with his bag of scientific tools only to be informed by the town's elders that the murderer is not a human, rather a headless supernatural warrior from beyond the grave who rides at night on a massive black horse.
Crane begins his own investigation. Boarding a room at the home of the town's richest family, the Van Tassels, Crane develops an attraction to their daughter, the mysterious Katrina, even as he's plagued by nightmares of his mother's horrific torture when he was a child. Crane was helped by a young child, whose father was a victim of the Horseman. Crane discovers the Horseman's grave in the gnarled Tree of the Dead.
Crane finds the Horseman's skull is missing, though the murders continue. crane discovers that the Horseman controlled by Katrina's stepmother, Lady Van tassel, who sends the killer after Katrina now to solidify her hold on what she considers her property. Following a fight in the local windmill and a stagecoach chase through the woods, crane eventually thwarts Lady Van Tassel by returning the skull to the Horseman, who regains his head and heads back tho Hell along with his enslaver. With his job in Sleepy Hollow over, Crane, with Katrina and Young Masbeth, returns to New York, in time for the new century.
