The character of Ichabod Crane in Irving's immortal story has had many incarnations. He's been a detective, a dabbler in the supernatural, and a criminologist, among other things.

I've always appreciated how much of the original text survived in the Disney version of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Required viewing at Halloween time.
