🕯️ Background Recap – Sleepy Hollow (1999):
Directed by Tim Burton, the original film reimagined Washington Irving’s legend with a macabre visual style and unforgettable performances. Johnny Depp’s Ichabod Crane, a rational investigator, faced off against the Headless Horseman in a fog-drenched 18th-century New York village steeped in secrets and death.
🌕 Sequel Concept: “Bloodlines”
25 years after the murders that haunted Sleepy Hollow, the town has been reborn — but evil doesn’t sleep forever.
Ichabod Crane, now an aged but restless man, is called back after a series of copycat killings terrify a new generation. The old legends have returned… but this time, the Horseman may not be who they think.
Crane joins forces with Katrina’s descendant (Anya Taylor-Joy), a young woman with visions linked to the Horseman. As they dig deeper into the town’s history, they uncover a ritual bloodline curse that could awaken the true source of the Horseman’s rage.
