Witness the Headless Horseman’s first ride in this prequel to Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow.
Before Mary Van Tassel terrorized the town of Sleepy Hollow with the devilish Headless Horseman, she was Sarah Archer—a young girl trying to survive her witch of a mother. Sarah and her twin are raised in the wild Western Wood, taught the ways of witchcraft, and forced to endure abuse and neglect. But a chance encounter with the hellish Hessian at the moment of his beheading lights a fire in Sarah, igniting the hate within her heart.
The Headless Horseman haunts Sarah as she grows into a young woman, corrupting her soul and darkening her magic. He gives her the power to overcome those who have wronged her and grow into a fearsome witch who will use her magic to seek a bloody revenge on the town of Sleepy Hollow.
