Turned down by Katrina, 'heavy-hearted and crestfallen' he rides through the autumn night where he encounters a headless horseman in a classic American ghost story that is often referenced today. It's a companion piece to 'Rip Van Winkle', which you'll also find here among many other great short stories from Washington Irving, who was a good friend of Charles Dickens and perhaps the first America author to earn a living from writing. Interestingly, Irving was the man who first popularized the name 'Gotham' for New York City and he also invented the flying sequence for Santa Claus's sleigh.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Texas Bookman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46603652399356,"sku":"2212228","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/4975\/4108\/files\/texas-bookman-books-fiction-horror-legend-of-sleepy-hollow-other-stories-arc-classics-paperback-9781838573768-2212228-42810818789628.jpg?v=1762982257","url":"https:\/\/shop.thirdeyecomics.com\/products\/legend-of-sleepy-hollow-other-stories-arc-classics-paperback","provider":"Third Eye Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
