A Headless Horseman for Halloween


© Candice Livingston

In the spirit of the upcoming holiday, Halloween, this week enjoy a few spooky moments from "Sleepy Hollow". It may not be a run-of-the-mill horror flick, but it does a fine job of scaring the bejeezers out of those who have dared to watch it.

ICHABOD: Villainy wears many masks, none of which are more dangerous than virtue.

BROM VAN BRUNT: We haven't heard your name yet, friend.
ICHABOD: I have not yet said it.

LADY VAN TASSEL: Watch your heads!

KATRINA: I have shed my tears for Brom... and yet my heart is not broken. Do you think me wicked?
ICHABOD: No... but perhaps there is a little bit of witch in you, Katrina.
KATRINA: Why do you say that?
ICHABOD: Because you have bewitched me.

ICHABOD: Truth is appearance, but appearance isn't always truth.

STEENWYK: Their heads weren't found severed. Their heads were not found at all.

ICHABOD: Murder needs no ghosts come from the grave. The assassin is a man of flesh and blood and I will discover him.

ICHABOD: Did you move the body?
LANCASTER: Yes.
ICHABOD: You must NEVER move the body.
LANCASTER: Why?
ICHABOD: Because.

YOUNG MASBETH: Is he dead?
ICHABOD: That's the problem. He was dead to begin with.

KATRINA: Good-bye, Ichabod Crane. Curse the day you came to Sleepy Hollow.

ICHABOD: Gentlemen! -- the Millennium is almost upon us -- In a few months we will be living in the nineteenth century -- !

STEENWYCK: The heads were not found severed. The heads were not found at all.
ICHABOD: The heads are gone? Hardenbrook leans forward, his voice cragged.
HARDENBROOK: Taken. Taken by the Headless Horseman. Taken back to hell.


ICHABOD: Reverend Steenwyck... gentlemen... murder needs no ghost come from the grave. Which of you have laid eyes on this Headless Horsemen?
HARDENBROOK: Others have. Many others.

ICHABOD: We have murders in New York without benefit of ghouls and goblins.
BALTUS: You are a long way from New York, sir.

KATRINA: They were my mother's books... my father frowned at them then, and would frown at me now. He believes tales of romance caused the brain fever that killed my mother. She died two years ago come midwinter.

ICHABOD: The Horseman does not kill for the sake of killing... he chooses his victims.
