Legend of Sleepy Hollow

What’s This Podcast
About?

Dive into the eerie and enchanting world of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a captivating short story by Washington Irving. Part of his collection, The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., this tale was penned during his time in Birmingham, England, and first saw the light of day in 1820. Inspired by a German folktale, it immerses readers in the Dutch culture of Post-Revolutionary War New York State. Alongside Irvings renowned Rip Van Winkle, this story stands as one of the earliest and most beloved examples of American fiction that continues to resonate with readers today.
