News & Spoilers

  • "After a hilarious trip to a local baseball game, Ichabod's day takes a turn for the worse when he's abducted. Katrina then makes a surprising visit to Abbie, warning that the Headless Horseman is returning to Sleepy Hollow that night and only Ichabod can stop him. 

    "Katrina also dropped the game-changing revelation that she's found a way to reverse the spell she put on her husband, which bound his life to the Horseman's: Ichabod simply has to be sanctified by a Sin-Eater (to be played by recurring guest-star John Noble). While that sounds all fine and dandy, we have a feeling getting sanctified will be harder than it sounds." (TV Guide)

  • John Noble guest stars in this episode as Henry Parrish, the "sin eater."
  • Actress Lyndie Greenwood returns in this episode as Jenny Mills, Abbie's sister.
