I absolutely agree that the Glenn Close animated version is fantastic. It captures the authentic flavor and essence of Irving’s classic tale. The best, most authentically faithful to the story film version is the 1999 “Legend of Sleepy Hollow” which starred a Canadian actor named Brent Carver and is available on Amazon Prime.
This version was actually my introduction to the story, and to this day is still the first thing I think about any time I hear "Sleepy Hollow." It's such a creepy and perfect telling. So cool to see I'm not the only one who has fond memories of it! Funny enough, we also used to rent it from our local library when I was a kid. We actually borrowed it so much they ended up either selling or giving it to us at one point lol.
LOL, that's awesome. I always wanted to own it as a kid but never did. Really glad to see how many more people had this video be part of their childhoods side from me.
They used to show it every year around Halloween when I was in grade school. I now own it on DVD (you can buy them on the Rabbit Ears Entertainment website) and I continue the tradition of watching it every year.
I was pleasantly surprised to discover this video. I have always wanted to go to Sleepy Hollow in the autumn; that's been a dream of mine for years, but it sadly hasn't happened yet. It's one of several places I'd love to travel to someday, and it's right up in the top three. The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a massively important story to me, too; when I was a kid, I adored the book, and I started telling the story to lower grade levels at my school district as early as Junior High. I still annually go back to my old Elementary School (and sometimes the Junior High School) and tell them the story of Sleepy Hollow in my own words, using as much of Irving's words as I can in my speech. To me, it's one of my favorite tales, and it's second only to Dracula and some of the works of Edgar Allan Poe as my favorite piece of spooky classic literature. I've even dressed up as the Horseman a few times for Halloween, and I'm hoping to write a stage production based on the story in the near future! As far as the Rabbit Ears special goes...honestly, I go back and forth on which I prefer between it and the Disney Version. The Disney Version is the more exciting take; it goes all out with wild shenanigans, musical routines, and that intense chase scene that mixes humor and fright simultaneously. I love the colors it uses and I love the character designs. And it helps that it was one of my introductions to the story. Rabbit Ears, however, was also heavily influential on me, and I think it works in a different way; it's more subtle, and it uses a very different sense of style and color palette. The music in the Disney version makes me want to sing along, but the Rabbit Ears music by Tim Story has this hypnotic, dreamlike quality that transports me to another time and place. Disney I think does a great job in terms of the story and making it more cinematic, but Rabbit Ears just so perfectly captures the raw ESSENCE of what Sleepy Hollow is - as a story and even as a place, I think. The best way to put it is the Disney version feels like it's trying to represent a fairy-tale of Halloween, while Rabbit Ears feels more like an authentic vision to the past. It feels more like a "legend," as opposed to a pure fantasy. I'm rambling a bit, sorry. XD Bottom line, I'm so happy to have found this video, and found someone else who loves the Rabbit Ears take (or even knows about it), and your passion for this story and Halloween itself is truly heartwarming. Watch out for the Headless Horseman this year! ;)
Thank you for this comment! The fact you still return each year to read the legend to kids is amazing, and I fully hope you are able to write that tase production of it. You did a great job pointing out the pros of both the Disney and Rabbit Ears versions. I agree. I do personally lean more towards the Rabbit Ears one, but both are fantastic in their own right.
I randomly thought about this version the other day. The part I remembered best was when Ichabod first encounters ‘The Headless Horseman’ and says, “who are you?” So I did some searching on UA-cam and found your video. And my man, without it I would have probably never figured out the exact version. I used to always rent this from the library when I was younger, too. I actually did find this version online and if anyone is interested in watching I can link you to it. It’s awesome to me that so many others, including yourself, share a love for this version. I loved everything about it as a kid and can’t believe I forgot about it for so long. Thank you once again :)
Thank you so much. It makes me so happy to hear how many people were able to discover/rediscover this version because of me, and I love hearing from other people who loved this version. I never would have known how many people shared that love if not for making this video. And I would absolutely love a link to the version you mentioned
Love how you have so much appreciation and passion for the sleep hollow/headless horseman! Sounds like your childhood experiences are still warming in your heart ! Love it!
I remember renting this from my local public library for free back in late 90s early 2000s when i was young . Even though it's not really animated it's still very entertaining i rented it like 100 times lol. It never gets old
I remember watching the Rabbit Ears version in seventh grade back in 2002, I really liked it, but it sucks that it got deleted from youtube. By the way, I know I'm late saying this, but I need to right now while it's still barely 2020, so Happy 200th anniversary to The Legend of Sleepy Hollow!
I came across this version a couple years ago. Love it. Downloaded audio version too. It’s my fav for Halloween. And loved that you praised this special. Thank you.
I first saw this on Showtime WAY back in the day, and loved it then. It so captures the feeling of autumn - and a huge part of that for me is the soundtrack by Tim Story. I hear that, and I am immediately transported to a cool autumn evening!
I saw this film years ago when I was in high school. And yes it is very well done. As the Disney film, the songs are catchy and nothing scared the hell out of me more than the first shot of the headless horseman rearing up and that haunting laugh and that huge billowing cape! Even that final scare before the cartoon ended got me!
I love the VHS version a lot! In fact, this was on of the most celebrated stories in my household. I live in California so I'm not able to go to the real place because of school, but I would love so much to do it at least once.
Coming from Australia, where Halloween is nowhere near as big as it is in the US, the spooky Autumn feel of the Legend of Sleepy Hollow was both foreign and frightening, yet cozy and familiar. It's such a shame that none of the big budget adaptations have been able to completely capture that.
Yeah, it really is a shame. We are long overdue for a faithful film adaptation. If they make one and choose to change the story a bit, I'd honestly be OK as long as the atmosphere is done right. I think the mood and setting of the story are honestly its most important and appealing traits.
This version introduced me to the story, and made me completely fall in love with it. I would rent the VHS from my library every weekend, even though it scared me and gave me nightmares every time. I watch it every Fall/Halloween, and it only takes those first few musical notes for me to be immediately taken back to being a child. It's my dream to visit Sleepy Hollow. I love the story, and this film, so very much. In such an odd way, it feels like home. Even after all these years, I'm still obsessed with this story. I've lost count of how many times I've read it, and I'm pretty certain I've seen every version. It's all so wonderful. Thanks for this video. It cheered me up!
Thank you! And I agree. As soon as I hear the music start up I'm plunged into nostalgia. I'm really glad to hear how many more people loved this video as a kid, and how many people still love the legend as a whole. Since you're such a big fan, I really hope you can visit Sleepy Hollow some day. It's such a fun place to visit, and seeing all the places and landmarks mentioned in the story is surreal.
God damn, I could feel the vast amount of passion you have for this season, this festival and the story itself. Seeing all those big dinosaur sculptures made me wish that Halloween would be bigger outside of the states. Also great seeing a Clayfighter reference in here. It should be illegal to have so much nostalgia for such a bad game.
Halloween is actually pretty big over here in the UK contrary to what people from the US often presume; in fact it was invented here (based on various older English and other British isles traditions) and even things such as dressing up and doing something similar to trick or treating predate their introduction in the Americas, with Scotland being especially fond of the practice. Carving faces onto things like turnips (pumpkins were not yet introduced) were common in Ireland and Great Britain also.
damn my man we have some stuff in common , we both love turtles and the legend of sleepy hollow, my grandma got me into it as a kid, and even tho it frighten me i couldn't get enough. i cant remember what it was at first whether the disney movie or it was this little old story book she book would of been my first experiences. in grade 1 i wrote a parody story called the headless horse lol
I've been searching for this animated book on tape for years. This version was my childhood, way before I managed to actually see "Ichabod and Mr.Toad". So damn chilling and creepy...
So glad u made this video and shared this with us. I also have fond memories of this. I listen to the audiobook any time I can’t get to sleep. I’m so jealous I’m not closer to Sleepy Hollow like you!! Have extra fun this year for me.
This is the best version/i HAVE this movie on DVD/i taped this off of HBO in 1988/this version has won several awards including the ACE Award from HBO/and yes the best piece of art is the gentlemen telling tales on the porch! Glorious artwork!
I remember watching that in elementary school. I also remember getting so scared when the headless horseman threw the jack o lantern, I ducked and covered myself.
You make some good points (and pointers) about Sleepy Hollow and The Legend of. I live about a 15 minute walk from The Old Dutch Church and Sleepy Hollow Cemetery and have had a few adventures there. Katrina van Tassel's tomb is by the church building. It's a rather enchanted place all year 'round.
What a happy coincidence! I have never looked up the rabbit ears version until today, and the first video that comes up is this one released only a month ago! In my opinion no other adaptation holds a candle to this; it was a big part of my childhood! Great video. My bday is in October so I'm a spooky boi at heart. Really appreciate what you bring to the table in this! Keep it up :)
Bro….that Glen Close audio tape cassette….me and my brother would pop it in the family stereo and sit on the floor and listen to it and get so incredibly freaked out. I went to my childhood home this afternoon and went through my old room. At the top of the closet, there it was, the giant silver box looking machine, next to the old record player (looked to be 80’s era) and inside the glass window in the stereo was the Legend of Sleepy Hollow cassette tape. I took it out and saw it said “Narrated by Glenn Close.” I had no idea. We just thought it was a creepy voice meant to scare us. I’m 30 now and just realized who that was. And so now I’m on UA-cam and found this.
That's awesome! Yeah, I didn't know it was Glenn Close as a kid either. That's so cool that it was actually the tape that was still in the cassette player after all these years.
Omg! I have this version in an audiobook on my phone i put it on to fall asleep, reminds me of being a kid. The artwork and the music left such an impression on me. Used to rent this from the library and, if you like weird old animations i suggest Teeny Tiny and The Witch Woman.
This version of the legend of sleepy hollow is by far the best version made. I too found it at my local library way back in grade 5,back in 1992, I watched it so many times I think I still have the entire dialogue memorized. I later bought the soundtrack which includes just the music and a version of the audio track from the video with narration.....somewhere. This version also does get the creepy factor without going too far into scary.
That's awesome that you bought the soundtrack. I didn't know they sold that. That's one of the things I love about it. It's creepy enough to set the Halloween mood perfectly, but not too scary for kids to enjoy. Everyone can watch it and get in the Halloween spirit.
@@brendansrambles9464 yes I found the cd after posting the reply here, and I ordered an external DVD drive (my ultra expensive new computer has no DVD drive) to rip the tracks into mp3s. I have topaz ai, a video upscale program and I found this sleepy hollow version on UA-cam and downloaded it, sadly the audio isn't as good but if I could rip the audio off the cd, upscale the video and restore the track then I can hopefully restore it to something like the quality of a DVD rip
I stand corrected, the CD that I bought only has the narrration version, no version with just the music sadly, because some of those tunes are really memorable, particularly the creepy music told when they tell ghost stories.
My favorite animated version of the story came out about 1970. It was paired up with Irving's Rip Van Winkle, and was made by an Australian company called API. This has been released on videotape, but not DVD. It created in me a love for Irving's writings. Irving wrote a number of ghost stories. I think my favorites would be Guests From Gibbet Island and The Bold Dragoon. A very good film adaptation of The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow also came out about 1980, starring Jeff Goldblum as Ichabod Crane.
Cool. I’ve learned about quite a few film adaptations of the story from all the awesome comments. I look forward to checking these out, especially the Goldblum one.
@@brendansrambles9464 Don't know how much you're into current fiction, but at the library of the city I live in, I'm able to pick up a free magazine called Book Page, which highlights fiction of all types and for all age groups. The current issue of Book Page is dedicated to Halloween. In the issue are discussed current ghost story and horror novels. One, titled Horseman, by author Christina Henry, is an update on The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow (well, sort of an update). The story's main character is named Bente "Ben" Van Brunt, who is the 14 year old grandson of Katrina Van Tassel and Brom Bones. Ben has visions of the headless horseman, who tells Ben that he is there to protect Ben. I always find it interesting when current authors take well known characters created by other authors, and put a new spin to them. Several years ago, a novel came out called Mr. Timothy, which imagined Timothy Cratchit as a young man living in London. I have the novel, and thought it was good.
I love that version. The Rip Van Winkle was especially influential for me as it was the first time I saw that story adapted. API were great, their Ivanhoe is one of the best versions of that tale, as is their Robin Hood and Treasure Island. A spinoff studio called Burbank did a lot of good adaptations in the early 80s too. The version with Goldblum is pretty great too.
@@robertzastrow4648 that sounds interesting. It’s always a testament to what amazing authors writers like Irving and Dickens were that their material can still inspire great new stories today.
True story...my 3rd great grandfather was chased by the Headless Horseman. Not by the Hudson River. However, towards the beginning of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Believe what you want. I grew up not only watching this particular version of The Legend of Sleepy Hallow. But also hearing the stories from my family whom have been surrounded by the supernatural.
Awesome. Last year I started watching a few sleepy hollow short cartoons and had been looking for one I haven’t seen. I’ll give this one a watch! My favorite (which is probably one people generally regard as being terrible if they’ve even seen it), is a weird one from the 70s
It definitely was. When I first found it on UA-cam after not seeing it for ages, as soon as that music started it all came back and put the same haunting spell over me it had 25 years earlier
this one was the scariest. by far. i had some cowboy action figures and would do the midnight ride. i live in the hills of ky and around horses. this always freaked me right out. are you afraid of the dark version is right behind it.
....A Hollywood adaptation faithful to the book? I don't think that's ever been done, with the possible exception of "Remains of the Day." Great video BTW...
I completely agree with you! I am not from the USA but I absolutely love this story and the telling narrated by Glenn Close is very great, as is the version narrated by John Carradine. For me Halloween is less great if I don't want at least one 'Legend of Sleepy Hollow' related thing. I love Jason and Freddie too, but I have a very special love for classic horror and gothic tales and I really feel that it is a shame that the young 'uns these days don't. Back in the 20th Century, when I was a kid, we still loved the old stuff and Halloween wasn't Halloween without Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, the Mummy etc. Nothing gets you in the mood for the season like the old classics and I feel that by them becoming underappreciated and with less exposure, kids these days are actually missing out on a lot. Now I rarely even see trick or treaters dressed up as horror characters it is now all (living) pirates and other things of that nature. Sad.
@@brendansrambles9464 Definitely! It is primarily a manmade disinterest. My niece likes all the Gothic horror/romances now due to my influence; even got her interested in 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte!
@@brendansrambles9464 Absolutely! Was very happy to see the VanTassel homestead was based off a real location, thanks for that detail. And yes, all of Story's music is stellar in this, but the cue's for the scenes you mention, especially during the storytelling on the poach as the party winds down, and the Raven Rock theme are standouts. Best kind of haunting chill... really looking forward to watching it again next month.
I actually just ripped it from the video itself. I tried searching for it, and found some other great music by the artist, but couldn't find high quality versions of these specific tracks.
There’s also a computer-animated film of this, “Night Of The Headless Horseman”. That one’s MY favorite: all-star cast (including Mark Hamill), origin story of the ghost, and an UBER awesome twist ending! It’s available to watch right now on UA-cam--a definite MUST-WATCH!
Awesome review! I'm glad someone else remembers this version of Sleepy Hollow! It's also my favorite version of the tale! Have you seen the other Rabbit Ears videos, like The Fool and the Flying Ship?
@@brendansrambles9464 You should definitely check out the Fool and the Flying Ship! It was narrated by Robin Williams and is easily one of the funniest ones out there!
Burton's film, though fantastically macabre and a visual delight (essentially eye candy for me and not much more), is such a loose adaptation; it takes the story as inspiration, and some of the character names ... but it comes up empty and disappointing-- rather hollow, if you'll allow the pun. Why he didn't stick to Irving's actual tale is a mystery, and such a missed opportunity! And the thing is, I really like what Depp and Burton did with the Ichabod character-- but they should have made this Constable an original character, in a different movie thriller/comedy. I have not seen every filmed version of the story-- never watched the Jeff Goldblum one, nor the Shelley Duvall's Tall Tales and Legends (with Ed Begley Junior and Beverly D'Angelo). Not sure if they're worth one's time. Ages ago I heard Glenn Close's version on an audio cassette and was very impressed. Such a fun listen. Man, those food descriptions alone were brilliant. I love Halloween time, and when it's done I get a little blue for a while. It's finished so fast, and then BOOM we're prepping for Turkey Day and Christmas. You have to heave aside all the spooky stuff quick and store it away. Honestly, since adulthood I've felt that Halloween ought to be changed to the last Friday or Saturday in October, so that kids can enjoy more if it; but I understand it's a "number of the month" holiday because of All Saints Day and all that. This year we had a special All Hallows Eve ... that full moon, and falling on a Saturday, and gaining an hour that evening. Like all Halloween aficionados, I have specific movies I like to enjoy every October. Some of those include Creepshow, Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Lady in White, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, Halloween (1978), Monster House, Beetlejuice, Arsenic and Old Lace, Halloween III: Season of the Witch, Trick 'r Treat, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, et cetera. Really enjoyed this video. Great imagery and insights and memories. Solid narration that was a good audio level (so many UA-cam channels have atrocious narration and/or volume, either too rushed or loud or soft or laced with foul language). You seem like a fun guy. Thanks for sharing this. I wish I had stumbled upon it a wee bit earlier this year.
Thank you! I agree. I don't hate what Burton and Depp did with the character and some of the new creative choices, I just felt it could have been the definitive big screen version we never got. And, I too get quite blue after Halloween. Everything moves so fast when you get older. I'd be cool with Halloween season lasting moths, but, unfortunately can't be so. Those are some great movie picks. I watch about half of those almost every year myself. And thanks so much for all the kind words. Always appreciated, and I always love hearing from other Halloween super fans.
Definitely watch the versions you mentioned (Ed Begley Jr. is a delight in the role - watch that not long ago - as is Goldblum), and also the version with Brent Carver. I think they are all fun in their own way but I do think we need a definitive version of the tale.
@@kyriakospentheides Completely. It's something of a cult film because there are people who adore it, and then there are people who have no clue of its existence.
Glenn Close's version IS PERFECT!! It was a Halloween tradition for my family as well l! BUT, I need to point out a WONDERFUL film adaptation starring Tony Award Winning Brent Carver. Check it out!
@@brendansrambles9464 If you look it up online, be very careful to not mix it up with the one starring Christina Ricci and Johnny Depp. They were both produced in 1999. However, the one with Brent Carver is a Canadian production. That's how you can tell you've got the right one! It is currently free on UA-cam here. Well, well worth your time!

What about the film version from 1980 with Jeff Goldblum, 1985 or 1999 with Brent Carver? There might be more but just thought of these at the top of my head. Thanks for your lovely and inviting video but Sleepy Hollow is very popular I guess as movie subject. ;-)
@@brendansrambles9464 Sure you'll find it amusing, as it's a light-hearted and romantic version and the one from 1985 is a blond version with Ed Begley Jr . and Beverly d'Angelo ;-).
I literally just watched it a couple days ago and now it's gone. They must have taken it down again. I guess they upload it every year in Autumn and then take it down shortly after Halloween is over
It used to be on UA-cam but it seems to have been taken down, which is odd as it's been out of print since the early 90s, probably. Unfortunately, the only way to track it down now may be VHS.
@@brendansrambles9464 I used to have it on VHS when I was a kid. Odd that it was removed. I just watched it here about three years ago. Halloween was weird time around then.
Been obsessed with Washington Irving's masterpiece The Legend of Sleepy Hollow my whole life! Especially this year, Ive listened to every audio version and visited various reenacted versions and tributes... I truly appreciate your video and share your passion for this cozy, macabre tale.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! I have yet to see any live reenactments of the tale, but would love to. They do a walking sort of tour reenactment in Sleepy Hollow where you walk from Irving's house to other locations as the story continues, but it was canceled this year so I still have yet to check it out
I absolutely agree that the Glenn Close animated version is fantastic. It captures the authentic flavor and essence of Irving’s classic tale. The best, most authentically faithful to the story film version is the 1999 “Legend of Sleepy Hollow” which starred a Canadian actor named Brent Carver and is available on Amazon Prime.

I'm so happy somebody else remembers this film, I still watch this every Halloween!
So do I! It’s gotta be my favorite of Rabbit Ears’ video, along with Little Red Riding Hood
I bought this movie over 10 years ago on VHS I’m 25 now and I still see it
Whoo me too, we watch it every Halloween. I think we’re somewhere around 25 years without missing a year.
I also used to watch this every Halloween when I was a kid
Bro yesss! We used to watch this in school. Used to FREAK me out! Going to show it to my class. Thanks for the reminder!
Awesome! Your teacher had good taste!
Sleepy Hollow is the GREATEST HALLOWEEN story ever written and/or represented - a truly American haunt.
I thought I was the only one who loved the headless horseman legend so much
You are definitely not alone. :-)

I love the VHS version a lot! In fact, this was on of the most celebrated stories in my household. I live in California so I'm not able to go to the real place because of school, but I would love so much to do it at least once.
you did such a great job- Im a teacher and I love to use many of these as examples and you just laid it out so well!
thank you!
Coming from Australia, where Halloween is nowhere near as big as it is in the US, the spooky Autumn feel of the Legend of Sleepy Hollow was both foreign and frightening, yet cozy and familiar. It's such a shame that none of the big budget adaptations have been able to completely capture that.
Yeah, it really is a shame. We are long overdue for a faithful film adaptation. If they make one and choose to change the story a bit, I'd honestly be OK as long as the atmosphere is done right. I think the mood and setting of the story are honestly its most important and appealing traits.
Always been a huge fan of sleepy hollow and I can say I never knew about this version. I will be watching it!
I remember Rabbit Ears. Loved how the story was the pages of a book. It kept getting removed from YT, so I found it and made it private.
This version introduced me to the story, and made me completely fall in love with it. I would rent the VHS from my library every weekend, even though it scared me and gave me nightmares every time. I watch it every Fall/Halloween, and it only takes those first few musical notes for me to be immediately taken back to being a child. It's my dream to visit Sleepy Hollow. I love the story, and this film, so very much. In such an odd way, it feels like home. Even after all these years, I'm still obsessed with this story. I've lost count of how many times I've read it, and I'm pretty certain I've seen every version. It's all so wonderful. Thanks for this video. It cheered me up!
Thank you! And I agree. As soon as I hear the music start up I'm plunged into nostalgia. I'm really glad to hear how many more people loved this video as a kid, and how many people still love the legend as a whole. Since you're such a big fan, I really hope you can visit Sleepy Hollow some day. It's such a fun place to visit, and seeing all the places and landmarks mentioned in the story is surreal.
God damn, I could feel the vast amount of passion you have for this season, this festival and the story itself.
Seeing all those big dinosaur sculptures made me wish that Halloween would be bigger outside of the states. Also great seeing a Clayfighter reference in here. It should be illegal to have so much nostalgia for such a bad game.
Thank you! Glad my passion came through. And, yeah, Clayfighter will remain good in our memories... even if our memories are lying.
Halloween is actually pretty big over here in the UK contrary to what people from the US often presume; in fact it was invented here (based on various older English and other British isles traditions) and even things such as dressing up and doing something similar to trick or treating predate their introduction in the Americas, with Scotland being especially fond of the practice. Carving faces onto things like turnips (pumpkins were not yet introduced) were common in Ireland and Great Britain also.
I saw this as a kid and it haunted me. Tried to find it, and as a 33 year old i finally found the version i saw when i was a child. thanks
Ah man memories. I use to rent this from my local library such great memories
damn my man we have some stuff in common , we both love turtles and the legend of sleepy hollow, my grandma got me into it as a kid, and even tho it frighten me i couldn't get enough. i cant remember what it was at first whether the disney movie or it was this little old story book she book would of been my first experiences. in grade 1 i wrote a parody story called the headless horse lol
That's awesome! Sometimes the stuff that scares us as kids is the stuff we end up loving the most.
And thank you!
Thanks for your presentation. Discovered the "story book animation" back in the 80's and have enjoyed it ever since.
I've been searching for this animated book on tape for years. This version was my childhood, way before I managed to actually see "Ichabod and Mr.Toad". So damn chilling and creepy...
Yeah, I really think this version captured the spooky mood better than any other.
Love how you have them on VHS
I love watching all the different versions of the Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I even have a copy of a silent film version of it starring Will Rogers.
Great video! Thank you for sharing your experience in Sleepy Hollow. Now I want to visit that place myself in the future.
Thanks! Always happy to have more people want to check out Sleepy Hollow. It's a great time.
So glad u made this video and shared this with us. I also have fond memories of this. I listen to the audiobook any time I can’t get to sleep. I’m so jealous I’m not closer to Sleepy Hollow like you!! Have extra fun this year for me.
Thank you so much! I'll have lots of fun there! Hopefully you can visit the town some day
The best version of this story imo
This is the best version/i HAVE this movie on DVD/i taped this off of HBO in 1988/this version has won several awards including the ACE Award from HBO/and yes the best piece of art is the gentlemen telling tales on the porch! Glorious artwork!
Oh, cool. I didn't know it was released on DVD.
@@brendansrambles9464 Amazon/DVD/storybook and CD
I watched this one when I was in grade school. It's been tugging at my mind for a long time and I've wondered if I might be able to find it.
I remember watching that in elementary school. I also remember getting so scared when the headless horseman threw the jack o lantern, I ducked and covered myself.
You make some good points (and pointers) about Sleepy Hollow and The Legend of. I live about a 15 minute walk from The Old Dutch Church and Sleepy Hollow Cemetery and have had a few adventures there. Katrina van Tassel's tomb is by the church building. It's a rather enchanted place all year 'round.
That's so cool! I can't imagine what living there must be like. I'm excited to be revisiting the town very soon
What a happy coincidence! I have never looked up the rabbit ears version until today, and the first video that comes up is this one released only a month ago! In my opinion no other adaptation holds a candle to this; it was a big part of my childhood! Great video. My bday is in October so I'm a spooky boi at heart. Really appreciate what you bring to the table in this! Keep it up :)
Thanks so much! And I'm jealous you get to have a Halloween season birthday. Must be a bunch of fun.
@@brendansrambles9464 Yeah! I always try to make the most of it. I'm letting the holiday spirit in this time of year though! Excellent vibes too :)
Bro….that Glen Close audio tape cassette….me and my brother would pop it in the family stereo and sit on the floor and listen to it and get so incredibly freaked out. I went to my childhood home this afternoon and went through my old room. At the top of the closet, there it was, the giant silver box looking machine, next to the old record player (looked to be 80’s era) and inside the glass window in the stereo was the Legend of Sleepy Hollow cassette tape. I took it out and saw it said “Narrated by Glenn Close.” I had no idea. We just thought it was a creepy voice meant to scare us. I’m 30 now and just realized who that was. And so now I’m on UA-cam and found this.
That's awesome! Yeah, I didn't know it was Glenn Close as a kid either. That's so cool that it was actually the tape that was still in the cassette player after all these years.
Omg! I have this version in an audiobook on my phone i put it on to fall asleep, reminds me of being a kid. The artwork and the music left such an impression on me. Used to rent this from the library and, if you like weird old animations i suggest Teeny Tiny and The Witch Woman.
Thanks! I should look into those
i agree we need a movie version.
The illustration of Ichabod actually looks like Glenn Close in her Albert Nobbs mode;
Love it as well!
This version of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is (to me) like they're reading the story on the TV show Reading Rainbow
LOL, actually, it really is. I watched a ton of Reading Rainbow as a kid. Mostly because it came on before the Carmen San Diego gameshow
I've watched it as a kid too, my favorite episode being Kate Shelley and the midnight express
This version of the legend of sleepy hollow is by far the best version made. I too found it at my local library way back in grade 5,back in 1992, I watched it so many times I think I still have the entire dialogue memorized. I later bought the soundtrack which includes just the music and a version of the audio track from the video with narration.....somewhere.
This version also does get the creepy factor without going too far into scary.
That's awesome that you bought the soundtrack. I didn't know they sold that.
That's one of the things I love about it. It's creepy enough to set the Halloween mood perfectly, but not too scary for kids to enjoy. Everyone can watch it and get in the Halloween spirit.
@@brendansrambles9464 yes I found the cd after posting the reply here, and I ordered an external DVD drive (my ultra expensive new computer has no DVD drive) to rip the tracks into mp3s.
I have topaz ai, a video upscale program and I found this sleepy hollow version on UA-cam and downloaded it, sadly the audio isn't as good but if I could rip the audio off the cd, upscale the video and restore the track then I can hopefully restore it to something like the quality of a DVD rip
I stand corrected, the CD that I bought only has the narrration version, no version with just the music sadly, because some of those tunes are really memorable, particularly the creepy music told when they tell ghost stories.
Aw, that's a shame. Yeah, the music in that scene was always my favorite, too. It sets the scene so perfectly@@SkepticalChris
17:40 dude I've wanted to see that happen for a long time.
My favorite version too and I couldn't find it anywhere.
ua-cam.com/video/3P1sG8jJM3o/v-deo.html
My favorite animated version of the story came out about 1970. It was paired up with Irving's Rip Van Winkle, and was made by an Australian company called API. This has been released on videotape, but not DVD. It created in me a love for Irving's writings. Irving wrote a number of ghost stories. I think my favorites would be Guests From Gibbet Island and The Bold Dragoon. A very good film adaptation of The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow also came out about 1980, starring Jeff Goldblum as Ichabod Crane.
Cool. I’ve learned about quite a few film adaptations of the story from all the awesome comments. I look forward to checking these out, especially the Goldblum one.
@@brendansrambles9464 Don't know how much you're into current fiction, but at the library of the city I live in, I'm able to pick up a free magazine called Book Page, which highlights fiction of all types and for all age groups. The current issue of Book Page is dedicated to Halloween. In the issue are discussed current ghost story and horror novels. One, titled Horseman, by author Christina Henry, is an update on The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow (well, sort of an update). The story's main character is named Bente "Ben" Van Brunt, who is the 14 year old grandson of Katrina Van Tassel and Brom Bones. Ben has visions of the headless horseman, who tells Ben that he is there to protect Ben. I always find it interesting when current authors take well known characters created by other authors, and put a new spin to them. Several years ago, a novel came out called Mr. Timothy, which imagined Timothy Cratchit as a young man living in London. I have the novel, and thought it was good.
I love that version. The Rip Van Winkle was especially influential for me as it was the first time I saw that story adapted. API were great, their Ivanhoe is one of the best versions of that tale, as is their Robin Hood and Treasure Island. A spinoff studio called Burbank did a lot of good adaptations in the early 80s too.
The version with Goldblum is pretty great too.
@@robertzastrow4648 that sounds interesting. It’s always a testament to what amazing authors writers like Irving and Dickens were that their material can still inspire great new stories today.
I got real messed up by the frozen lady bit, and the entire thing tripped me out. But it traumatized me.
True story...my 3rd great grandfather was chased by the Headless Horseman. Not by the Hudson River. However, towards the beginning of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Believe what you want. I grew up not only watching this particular version of The Legend of Sleepy Hallow. But also hearing the stories from my family whom have been surrounded by the supernatural.
Awesome. Last year I started watching a few sleepy hollow short cartoons and had been looking for one I haven’t seen. I’ll give this one a watch! My favorite (which is probably one people generally regard as being terrible if they’ve even seen it), is a weird one from the 70s
The weird one from the 70s? The one narrated by John Carradine?
The music was a big contributor to the feeling that a watcher gets
It definitely was. When I first found it on UA-cam after not seeing it for ages, as soon as that music started it all came back and put the same haunting spell over me it had 25 years earlier
Disney's cartoon version and the movie 🍿 with Jeff Goldblum are my choices!
The Hallmark version from 1999 is a very good adaptation. It is my favorite live-action version.
Nice! I'll need to check that one out.
this one was the scariest. by far. i had some cowboy action figures and would do the midnight ride. i live in the hills of ky and around horses. this always freaked me right out. are you afraid of the dark version is right behind it.
Personally, I have a different favorite version of Sleepy Hollow than you. But this is still an awesome video! I love it!
There are a couple of full length silents. There’s a 79’s or 80’s made for tv. Check em’ out!
Thanks! There's many versions to check out. I might just do a Sleepy Hollow adaptation marathon this October.
....A Hollywood adaptation faithful to the book? I don't think that's ever been done, with the possible exception of "Remains of the Day." Great video BTW...
I completely agree with you! I am not from the USA but I absolutely love this story and the telling narrated by Glenn Close is very great, as is the version narrated by John Carradine. For me Halloween is less great if I don't want at least one 'Legend of Sleepy Hollow' related thing.
I love Jason and Freddie too, but I have a very special love for classic horror and gothic tales and I really feel that it is a shame that the young 'uns these days don't. Back in the 20th Century, when I was a kid, we still loved the old stuff and Halloween wasn't Halloween without Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, the Mummy etc. Nothing gets you in the mood for the season like the old classics and I feel that by them becoming underappreciated and with less exposure, kids these days are actually missing out on a lot. Now I rarely even see trick or treaters dressed up as horror characters it is now all (living) pirates and other things of that nature. Sad.
Yeah, I completely agree. I feel the classics would still be really popular if they were pushed in media more, but sadly they rarely are these days.
@@brendansrambles9464 Definitely! It is primarily a manmade disinterest. My niece likes all the Gothic horror/romances now due to my influence; even got her interested in 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte!
@@kyriakospentheides Nice!
My Favorite Legend Of Sleepy Hollow Is The Animated 1972 Edition Narrated By John Carradine.
I'll have to watch that one. John Carradine narrating it sounds awesome!
Subscribed without even finishing the video. Favorite version hands down. Fun aside, Tim Story released a suite of the isolated music years ago. 🎃
Thank you!
Tim Story's music is great! His work in this had a lot to do with why the mood was so good.
@@brendansrambles9464 Absolutely! Was very happy to see the VanTassel homestead was based off a real location, thanks for that detail. And yes, all of Story's music is stellar in this, but the cue's for the scenes you mention, especially during the storytelling on the poach as the party winds down, and the Raven Rock theme are standouts. Best kind of haunting chill... really looking forward to watching it again next month.
@@brendansrambles9464 An update: I was able to email Tim via his website to thank him for the music, and actually got a reply. Pretty cool.
@@Panzer_the_Merganser Oh wow, that's super cool of him!
@@brendansrambles9464 Yeah! I nice surprise, right in time for another watching of Sleepy Hollow.
I remember The Shirley Duvall version. It was campy but... it was fun.
I've never seen that one. I believe campy can very often be fun, though, so I wouldn't mind checking it out
@@brendansrambles9464 ua-cam.com/video/qCW3nGB8WIQ/v-deo.html
Here it is 🙂
Tell me what you think.
Where did you find the soundtrack to this? I’ve always wanted it
I actually just ripped it from the video itself. I tried searching for it, and found some other great music by the artist, but couldn't find high quality versions of these specific tracks.
Another Sleepy Hollow buddy!! What’s up man?! ✌️🎃
So glad to see more Hollow fans! Still sad Halloween's over, but already looking forward to next year!
There’s also a computer-animated film of this, “Night Of The Headless Horseman”. That one’s MY favorite: all-star cast (including Mark Hamill), origin story of the ghost, and an UBER awesome twist ending! It’s available to watch right now on UA-cam--a definite MUST-WATCH!
Nice to know! I’ll have to check it out soon
@@brendansrambles9464 Here’s the url for it: ua-cam.com/video/HUbK1a8Yb7U/v-deo.html
theres a version by the halmark channel from 1999 by henson productions look it up.
Yeah, the Brent Carver version. Pretty good! Watched it a lot when it first came out.
Brendan, as of Fall 2022, it's back on Youtbe, thanks to Blair Bart's channel.
That's great to hear!
Awesome review! I'm glad someone else remembers this version of Sleepy Hollow! It's also my favorite version of the tale! Have you seen the other Rabbit Ears videos, like The Fool and the Flying Ship?
Thank you! I actually have not seen the other ones, but I'd be interested to check them out.
@@brendansrambles9464 You should definitely check out the Fool and the Flying Ship! It was narrated by Robin Williams and is easily one of the funniest ones out there!
Have you seen the version staring Brent Craver? I feel like it’s the one of the most faithful versions of the story
No, never seen that one. I'll have to check it out at some point. Thanks for the recommendation!
@@brendansrambles9464 cool. Let me know what you think
Burton's film, though fantastically macabre and a visual delight (essentially eye candy for me and not much more), is such a loose adaptation; it takes the story as inspiration, and some of the character names ... but it comes up empty and disappointing-- rather hollow, if you'll allow the pun. Why he didn't stick to Irving's actual tale is a mystery, and such a missed opportunity! And the thing is, I really like what Depp and Burton did with the Ichabod character-- but they should have made this Constable an original character, in a different movie thriller/comedy.
I have not seen every filmed version of the story-- never watched the Jeff Goldblum one, nor the Shelley Duvall's Tall Tales and Legends (with Ed Begley Junior and Beverly D'Angelo). Not sure if they're worth one's time. Ages ago I heard Glenn Close's version on an audio cassette and was very impressed. Such a fun listen. Man, those food descriptions alone were brilliant.
I love Halloween time, and when it's done I get a little blue for a while. It's finished so fast, and then BOOM we're prepping for Turkey Day and Christmas. You have to heave aside all the spooky stuff quick and store it away. Honestly, since adulthood I've felt that Halloween ought to be changed to the last Friday or Saturday in October, so that kids can enjoy more if it; but I understand it's a "number of the month" holiday because of All Saints Day and all that. This year we had a special All Hallows Eve ... that full moon, and falling on a Saturday, and gaining an hour that evening.
Like all Halloween aficionados, I have specific movies I like to enjoy every October. Some of those include Creepshow, Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Lady in White, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, Halloween (1978), Monster House, Beetlejuice, Arsenic and Old Lace, Halloween III: Season of the Witch, Trick 'r Treat, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, et cetera.
Really enjoyed this video. Great imagery and insights and memories. Solid narration that was a good audio level (so many UA-cam channels have atrocious narration and/or volume, either too rushed or loud or soft or laced with foul language). You seem like a fun guy. Thanks for sharing this. I wish I had stumbled upon it a wee bit earlier this year.
Thank you!
I agree. I don't hate what Burton and Depp did with the character and some of the new creative choices, I just felt it could have been the definitive big screen version we never got. And, I too get quite blue after Halloween. Everything moves so fast when you get older. I'd be cool with Halloween season lasting moths, but, unfortunately can't be so.
Those are some great movie picks. I watch about half of those almost every year myself. And thanks so much for all the kind words. Always appreciated, and I always love hearing from other Halloween super fans.
Definitely watch the versions you mentioned (Ed Begley Jr. is a delight in the role - watch that not long ago - as is Goldblum), and also the version with Brent Carver. I think they are all fun in their own way but I do think we need a definitive version of the tale.
'The Ghost and Mr. Chicken' is such an underrated movie!
@@kyriakospentheides Completely. It's something of a cult film because there are people who adore it, and then there are people who have no clue of its existence.
@@kyriakospentheides My favorite filmed version is the 1949 Disney animated one.
I gotta know the name of the real-life manor that they used to design the Van Tassel house!
It's called the Van Cortlandt Manor.
Love the Disney the best. 🎃🎃🥰
This version had catchy from this version but it was also creepy.
And you watch this version to alot so did I.
Is the Sleepy Hollow book the one you showed in your video the one you bought in the town of Sleepy Hollow?
Yep! They sell that print of it in all the gift shops in the town.
Glenn Close's version IS PERFECT!! It was a Halloween tradition for my family as well l! BUT, I need to point out a WONDERFUL film adaptation starring Tony Award Winning Brent Carver. Check it out!
I will have to check that one out! I've been watching more versions of the story I have never seen before in recent years.
@@brendansrambles9464 If you look it up online, be very careful to not mix it up with the one starring Christina Ricci and Johnny Depp. They were both produced in 1999. However, the one with Brent Carver is a Canadian production. That's how you can tell you've got the right one! It is currently free on UA-cam here. Well, well worth your time!

This SUCKS compared to the version with, Beverly DeAngelo as Katrina. Truly, you'll love it😊 P.S. I don't do halloween.
What about the film version from 1980 with Jeff Goldblum, 1985 or 1999 with Brent Carver? There might be more but just thought of these at the top of my head. Thanks for your lovely and inviting video but Sleepy Hollow is very popular I guess as movie subject. ;-)
Thanks! So many people have mentioned the Goldblum one to me and some how it went under my radar. I still need to check it out.
@@brendansrambles9464 Sure you'll find it amusing, as it's a light-hearted and romantic version and the one from 1985 is a blond version with Ed Begley Jr . and Beverly d'Angelo ;-).

I literally just watched it a couple days ago and now it's gone. They must have taken it down again. I guess they upload it every year in Autumn and then take it down shortly after Halloween is over

Thank you!
Where's the video with Glen Close narrating?
It used to be on UA-cam but it seems to have been taken down, which is odd as it's been out of print since the early 90s, probably. Unfortunately, the only way to track it down now may be VHS.
@@brendansrambles9464 I used to have it on VHS when I was a kid. Odd that it was removed. I just watched it here about three years ago. Halloween was weird time around then.

Been obsessed with Washington Irving's masterpiece The Legend of Sleepy Hollow my whole life! Especially this year, Ive listened to every audio version and visited various reenacted versions and tributes... I truly appreciate your video and share your passion for this cozy, macabre tale.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! I have yet to see any live reenactments of the tale, but would love to. They do a walking sort of tour reenactment in Sleepy Hollow where you walk from Irving's house to other locations as the story continues, but it was canceled this year so I still have yet to check it out

Never care for newer things
The first 2 seasons of Sleepy Hollow, the tv series, I found enjoyable, but it kind of went down the toilet after season 2.
