Summary
The horseman comes for you.
Traveling schoolmaster, Ichabod Crane, doesn't believe the rumors about witches and spirits haunting the idyllic village of Sleepy Hollow. The townsfolk, led by the rich Van Tassel family, are friendly and welcoming to strangers. On Halloween night, Ichabod is caught in the clutches of a frightening specter. But the Headless Horseman is not the devil he has been led to believe, and Ichabod finds himself falling for the lonely spirit.
All is not as it seems in Sleepy Hollow. Something besides the Horseman prowls the secluded woods. Upon learning the disturbing truth, Ichabod is determined to free the village from its evil curse. But, more importantly, he is determined to save the Horseman he has given his heart to, even if he loses his head in the process.

It is a standalone horror-romance novella at approximately 50,000 words, with a HEA ending and no cliffhangers. It contains graphic violence. It is part of the Queerly Classic Collection, which are all unrelated standalone stories.

Fantastic Retelling!
This story had me riveted from start to finish! Fascinating, intriguing, imaginative, creative, spooky, sweet, endearing, timeless romance, steamy bits, curses, magic - it's got it all. Absolutely well-told imagining of Sleepy Hollow & the headless Horseman. I don't want to spoil anything, but there is definitely some interesting advantages to the Horseman's particular predicament.
The audiobook was performed beautifully by the very talented Kevin Earlywine. The Horseman's voice/accent, *chef's kiss!* Stellar all-around performance. Very good & well done indeed!

M/M Sleepy Hollow Retelling
A sweet & spicy M/M Gothic Romance between Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman. I wish it would have been a little longer! I also felt like Ichabod was on the A-spectrum (the grey/demi ones)-and I loved that.

Impressive Retelling & Narration🎧Mesmerizing!
Kit Barrie puts her own magical spin on this fantastic retelling of Irving Washington’s “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and she cast the perfect narrator to bring the characters and story to life from the pages to your ears, more on Kevin Earlywine’s impressive performance to follow. This is my first book written by this author, and I enjoyed her writing style, her brilliant and imaginative mind and how she built the story on the original, while keeping true to some facts and details. The story is mesmerizing, grabbing my attention immediately and holding it captive the entire time. Without giving away any spoilers, I will only say, thanks to the headless horseman of Sleepy Hollow, we now know what really happened to Ichabod Crane. This novella sized horror-romance packs a lot of story and has plenty of drama, angst, light but spooky horror, some heartfelt emotions, and steamy romance. Kit Barrie, thank you for this amazing story and wild ride.
🎧📚🎧 Kevin Earlywine’s versatility and talent truly shined as a voice artist and an entertaining storyteller. His portrayal of the characters was incredible, and I loved how he took each role and owned it, giving each a voice that was fitting, accents included and was believable in every role. He set the perfect tone for the story, spookiness included, captured all the characters’ emotions, their fear and desperation, and made you feel it all. Kevin Earlywine is a pleasure to listen to and his performance elevated this already amazing story to another level. Thank you for this exceptional listen.
