| In the town of Sleepy Hollow in 1781, Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) decapitates the Headless Horseman in battle, but is mortally wounded himself, and collapses. Both he and the Horseman awaken in 2013 in the same town. The latter kills the local sheriff, August Corbin (Clancy Brown), and Crane is mistakenly arrested for his murder by Corbin's partner, Lieutenant Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie). Crane claims that he's innocent of the murder and has just risen after several centuries of entombment. Mills is inclined to believe Crane and together they learn that the Horseman is actually Death, one of the Four Horsemen, and is seeking his head to summon the others to bring about the Apocalypse. Mills and Crane recover the head before the Horseman does, thanks to a dream sent by Katrina Van Tassel (Katia Winter), executed centuries earlier for witchcraft. Crane and Mills also discover that Corbin had been keeping detailed files on the various mysteries of Sleepy Hollow. | |||||||

Inside Washington's tomb, Ichabod, Abbie, and Henry locate the map, but are then ambushed by Andy. Only Ichabod's quick thinking allows them to seal him away and retrieve it.

When they both come to realize that what they are seeing is not real, they reunite and travel to an old church to find Katrina. There, Abbie and Ichabod learn from Katrina that she is unable to leave unless someone were to take her place, to which Abbie agrees. When Ichabod and Katrina return to the real world, they set up a ritual to prevent War from being summoned. When their efforts aren't successful, Henry appears and restrains them. He explains that he is Jeremy, having been resurrected by Moloch thirteen years ago, which Jenny and Abbie witnessed. Assuming the mantle of War, he brings forth the Horseman and rewards him for his service with Katrina. As Abbie regains her memories of Moloch, Crane is buried alive by Jeremy, who then breaks the second seal that separates Hell and Earth. | |||||||
