The first of a four-issue mature re-imagining of the Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Warlock Ichabod Crane has come to the women of Sleepy Hollow, to raise up their voices in ecstasy and exaltation, to awaken the Old God that sleeps beneath their feet. And the witch Katrina Van Tassel is the only one that can stop him. She has been pledged to serve the village and protect it from the evils that sleep beneath, yet she finds her charges, and her duty, repulsive. Will she forsake her inheritance and the village she has lived in her whole life to find a kind of happiness, or stay to fight a man who has already won?
