My favorite Halloween-time story will always be the Legend of Sleepy Hollow

[RandySF]

Steeped in the early history of America. The Revolutionary War. The Hudson River Valley. And believe it or not, based loosely on actual events in and around Tarrytown, New York.

1. I love that story!

Great descriptions of the autumn day and food, like tea time at the Dutch farm:

"There was the doughy doughnut, the tender oly koek, and the crisp and crumbling cruller; sweet cakes and short cakes, ginger cakes and honey cakes, and the whole family of cakes. And then there were apple pies, and peach pies, and pumpkin pies; besides slices of ham and smoked beef; and moreover delectable dishes of preserved plums, and peaches, and pears, and quinces; not to mention broiled shad and roasted chickens; together with bowls of milk and cream, all mingled higgledy-piggledy ... with the motherly teapot sending up its cloud of vapor from the midst -- Heaven bless the mark!"

3. Johnny Depp's version was, perhaps, one of his better ones.

Someone needs to take him in another direction. Too talented to resort to the stinkers he has had of late.

4. Do you watch the series?

I happen to really like it. The actor playing Ichabod Crane is really good.

5. Its ok

But I would have preferred something set in the 1700's.

6. Yeah, I get what you are saying

The series "Salem" didn't do anything for me. I know it was earlier in time (I think), but it didn't have the suspense.
