In an innocent city where
the supernatural occurs, two witnesses discover and unravel the mystery behind
the summoning of a demon that wants to end humanity and erupt devastation in
the world. Little by little these two witnesses; protectors of the world,
discover aspect of clues that lead them to the awakening of the headless
Horseman. A connection is seen between the Horseman and one of the witnesses;
Ichabod Crane, the resurrection of both of them in the same time. Currently now,
there is a second season continuing this year revealing more details of the
coming of the apocalypse.
Sleepy Hollow is a series of mystery,
supernatural, police drama and slightly a shift of comedy that will make you
want to watch all the season at once. The first season aired on September 16,
2013- which could have been caught on Mondays at eight o’ clock. This show was
forecast on Fox Network (on channel ten for any kind of cable). Usually
premiering every fall as of last year in 2013. In these series, there are two
protagonist-the witness, Ichabod Crane and Lt. Abbie Mills. Ichabod Crane was a
soldier and spy that served in the Colonial Army as of General George
Washington’s era. Lt. Abbie Mills is a police that investigates the
supernatural and killings of people, in which is brought together with Ichabod
Crane after her partner and mentor, police Corbin’s assassination.
Sleepy Hollow revolves around the determination of
the two witnesses to suspend the becoming of Moloch’s; the demon, war into the
Earth. Like I previously stated, Ichabod Crane was a soldier in the 18th
century and fought what once was the headless Horseman-another soldier covering
his face with an iron bridle mask. Killing both of each other at the same time,
Ichabod Crane and the other soldier, which soon his identity would be
discovered, fall down causing their blood to fuse in the battle field. Bringing
their triumph back to the 21st century, Crane teams up with Abbie
Mills solving the mystery of the return of the headless Horseman and also
Ichabod Crane himself. Because Crane is from the 18th century, his
presence helps Abbie Mills define historical events in the past to discover
hints to the headless Horseman future plans.
The first season mostly told the presence or story of who
the headless Horseman was and why he was in the city of Sleepy Hollow. The only
reason that Crane survived was because of a secret spell cast by Katrina Crane;
Crane’s wife who was a witch, once Crane was harshly wounded by the soldier
form of the Horseman. The series is told in chronological order and stories of
the past is inserted to view the present day better and the connections between
Crane and the Horseman. The connection between them is that they both loved
Katrina and were once best friends. Something that the Horseman (Abraham Van
Brunt) could not understand and made a deal with Moloch, becoming one of the
four horseman of the apocalypse after realizing the truth among Katrina’s and
Crane’s love. Moloch captured Katrina into his world and could only communicate
with Crane in his dreams. Crane later on discovered that he had a son; Henry,
that did not know existed and realized at the end of the season, when his son
turned up and betrayed him. Abbie also has a connection with Moloch, which is
that her and her sister- Jenny Mills, when they were adolescents, they saw four
white trees that represented the four Horseman of war- then fainting. Wakening
up in the police station, Abbie neglects what she saw but her sister does not,
which then Jenny is taken to an asylum. Lastly, at the end of the season, Abbie
is caught by Moloch and Katrina is out in Earth, where she then is caught by the
headless Horseman and Crane is sent underground, buried alive.
Currently now is the second season of Sleepy Hollow, which
premiered on September 22, 2014 on channel ten. This season focuses more on
Henry and his plans to unleash Moloch into the world. Then a new guy is brought
in- Hawley; a person who looks for ancient treasures and then sells it to a
client. Except that his client is no other than Henry, but Hawley does not
know. Mysteries are solved due to Crane’s ability in the past, which makes him
stronger in the modern day of Earth.
Sleepy Hollow concentrated on the Horseman acts
and killing spree of people, but not in the second season. Hello, what just
happened? In season one it told how Henry was Katrina and Crane’s son and was
left for dead, but one thing this season did not explain well was how Henry
ended up siding with Moloch. This conclusion was not drawn upon very well and
it leaves many of our minds wondering: How? Why? Or in what moment? Furthermore,
as I mentioned previously- Hawley is a new guy in which his story behind Jenny
Mills is not told specifically. In other words, at what moment did Jenny and
Hawley ever meet, if supposedly most of Jenny’s life was devoted in the asylum.
How is there a history between them, this is not represented clearly- something
that the second season lacks at this moment. Perhaps their history may be told
later on in the series, but in the meantime it is buried in our minds until
answered.
Besides all the negativity, there are some fun and
positive thought for Sleepy Hollow. These series are interesting to
watch and wait for, since it gives brief education of the past; historical
events. Crane being from the 18th century and into the modern world
helps establish a communication of what the reason for something in the past
could have been or caused for. Where it leaves the viewer hypothesizing the outcome
of a reason presented among that moment. Season one may impale many questions,
but it is a very entertaining television program to watch and refresh our minds
with historical events in an interesting enthusiastic way.
