The Return of Sleepy Hollow



So finally after a three-week hiatus, and only five episodes into a new series, Sleepy Hollow returned to its usual Monday night time slot. As a viewer, I can only wonder why there was a break so soon, especially with the Halloween holiday. A marketing ploy perhaps to see what viewer retention is like after a few weeks away from airtime?

In any event, in this episode Abbie has a vision where she encounters the Headless Horseman and Katrina, Ichabod’s wife. Katrina warns Abbie that Ichabod has been taken hostage and she has until nightfall to rescue him. Desperate for help, she turns to her sister Jenny for advice to find Sin Eater who apparently has the capability to sever the blood tie between Ichabod and the Headless Horseman. In this episode two important things are revealed: one, how Ichabod and Katrina met and two, that Abbie does have feelings for Ichabod after all. In the last few minutes Ichabod is freed from the curse, but the Headless Horseman has found where Ichabod was buried and is now on the hunt for revenge.

As the commercials say, “don’t lose your head.” I’m sure we’re in for a good time when it comes to new episodes and content.
