00:00And now a Titlecraft cartoon classic, The New Misadventures of Ichabod Crane.

00:10When you're alone, on a dark, dark night, strange shapes and noises can give you a fright.

00:21Is that a punk or someone's head?

00:26You'd better be careful where you tread.

00:33Is that the rubbing of ghostly knees?

00:38Or just the noise of wind in the trees?

00:43Is that a scarecrow?

00:47Or a highwayman?

00:50You'd better run as fast as you can!

00:56The night is so still, and the moon so bright.

01:04The headless horseman could ride tonight.

01:08With his mighty sword and fiery speed, he's a very awesome sight indeed.

01:14He'll chase you down and cut up your head.

01:19Oh, you'd better hurry and get home to bed!

01:23Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

01:26Over these hills lies Sleepy Hollow, a village of wondrous charm.

01:33For here in this village of Sleepy Hollow, there's a man who can keep you from harm.

01:40Who is this man from Sleepy Hollow

01:44Whose courage has fallen into pain

01:47Who is this man, this man they all follow

01:51Why it's Ichabod, it's Ichabod

01:54Ichabod Gray

01:55Ichabod, Ichabod, Ichabod

02:03Ichabod?

02:05Ichabod, it's the Headless Horseman

02:08The Headless Horseman

02:10The Headless Horseman?

02:12What, where, help

02:13Oh, we're out, run for your life

02:15Oh, last night, Ichabod

02:17He stopped the coach and he made off with a chest of gold

02:20Well, it's to be done

02:22Yeah, I don't want to know what you're going to do about our gold

02:25That awful creature ran off with every penny you don't like

02:27Who wants some answers?

02:29All right, all right

02:30Who'll deal with the horseman then?

02:32I have it, I have it

02:44There's only one man in these parts who knows all about witchery and spooky matters

02:48Ichabod Crane

02:50Yeah

02:50Hooray for Ichabod

02:52You can do it, Ichabod

02:54Three cheers

02:55Hip hip hooray

02:56Ichabod Crane

02:57Hooray

02:57Is the only expert of Sleepy Hollow

03:00On matters pertaining to the supernatural

03:02Scary and weird

03:04I hereby appoint you as the man to rid our village of the Headless Horseman

03:10The Headless Horseman, a mere trifle for a man of my superior intellect

03:19Have no fear

03:21I, Ichabod Crane

03:23AAAAAAaan

03:25aaaan

03:27TAN

03:43I

03:46I

03:47I

03:48I

03:50I

03:51I

03:52I

03:53Oh, Velva, Velva, you're such a shrewd old witch.

04:13I love you.

04:14The headless horseman creation is your best spell in years.

04:18You've got those simple villagers scared out of their wits.

04:23My dear, oh, if this doesn't get you elected witch of the year, nothing will.

04:30Roses are red, violets are blue, though you're wonderful, I love you.

04:41Fellas, you have no idea how reassuring it is to have the famous Rip Van Winkle along as our guide.

04:47I know we can count on Rip at all times to help us track down the headless horseman.

04:53I know they call this sleepy holler, but he's going too far.

05:03Oh, don't worry, he asked me to wake him up in a few minutes.

05:07In time for his afternoon nap.

05:09Uh, do we have to go through there?

05:21I'm afraid we do.

05:23Oh, no.

05:24Uh-uh.

05:25Crossing long, dark, creepy covered bridges ain't in my contract.

05:33Come on, everyone.

05:35Chin up, forward, march.

05:37Oh, it sure is dark, and creepy, and moldy, and spooky.

05:49I liked it better when it was just dark.

05:56I can't see my hand in front of my face.

05:59Well, why do you want to look at your hand at a time like this?

06:03I'm afraid.

06:04I'm not afraid.

06:05You're not?

06:06No.

06:07I'm terrified.

06:08What?

06:09No.

06:10I'm terrified.

06:11Oh, careful.

06:12You stuck on my...

06:15Can't dread it?

06:16Can a fella get a little shut-eye around here?

06:17Why can't you leave a fella and...

06:18RIP.

06:19RIP.

06:20Wake up, RIP.

06:21You can't go to sleep now.

06:22Oh, yes, he can.

06:23You just watch.

06:24Oh, that sleeping.

06:25Oh, no.

06:26Oh, no.

06:27Oh, no.

06:28Oh, no.

06:29Oh, no.

06:30Oh, no.

06:31Oh, no.

06:32Oh, no.

06:33Oh, no.

06:34Oh, no.

06:35Oh, no.

06:36Oh, no.

06:37Oh, no.

06:38Oh, no.

06:39Oh, no.

06:40Oh, no.

06:41Oh, no.

06:42Oh, no.

06:43Oh, no.

06:44Oh, that sleeping must have just plain wore him out.

06:48Come on, RIP.

06:49Up and at him.

06:50Look.

06:51There's the spot where the Headless Horseman stopped the coach.

06:56Oh, I hope the Headless Horseman don't come back.

07:00What?

07:01Headless Horseman?

07:03Let me at him.

07:05I'll fix him with this.

07:14Good.

07:15You'll never hit anything with that.

07:17Oh, yeah?

07:18Watch this.

07:19I'll just sneak up on the evil creature and knock his block off.

07:23He-he-he-he-he.

07:24If you had one, like this.

07:27Hit that, you critter.

07:28Hey!

07:33Look, a gold coin.

07:34Hey, here's another.

07:36And another.

07:37And another.

07:38They lead off up the mountain.

07:40That's the trail to, to, to Rungneck Roost.

07:43Rungneck Roost?

07:44Pee, Rhett.

07:45The meanest hunk of rock in these here parts.

07:47I just remembered I left the water running.

07:48You don't suppose that's where the Headless Horseman...

07:49Can't say for sure.

07:50No one who's ever gone up there has been seen or heard from since.

08:09Well, men.

08:10There's only one thing to do.

08:13Right!

08:14Right!

08:15Right!

08:16Hey, wait!

08:17That's not the right attitude.

08:20People back home are counting on us.

08:22That's just the problem.

08:24Why aren't they here counting on us?

08:27Mm-hmm.

08:28Mm-hmm.

08:29Come on.

08:30Let's go.

08:31Cut!

08:47Come on now.

08:48No!

08:49What?

08:50We're not gonna let a few old signs scare us, are we?

09:07We're not gonna let a few old signs scare us.

09:08Come on, Ted.

09:09Let's go!

09:10We're not gonna let a few old signs scare us.

09:11Don't let a few signs scare us.

09:12Don't let a few signs scare us.

09:13Let's go!

09:14Hey!

09:15You're dead, Reddins!

09:16I'm not scared!

09:17Come on.

09:18Follow me!

09:19Hey!

09:20What are you doing?

09:21Hey!

09:22Hey!

09:23Hey!

09:24Hey!

09:25Hey!

09:26Hey!

09:27Hey!

09:28Hey!

09:29Well, this looks just like the end of the trail.

09:31Hey!

09:32Hey!

09:33Hey!

09:34Just when we are ready to deal with that mean old spook.

09:38There must be some way to get across.

09:41What the hell?

09:50Anybody wants to turn back now, I got some bad news.

09:55You can't.

09:57Hey, look!

09:58Oh, it's a creepy-looking, tumble-down, evil-old spooky cabin.

10:08I hate to tell you this, but you would make a terrible real estate salesman.

10:13We've got to sneak up there and have a look inside.

10:16You mean you've got to sneak up there and have a look inside.

10:19I'm going to stay here and practice screaming.

10:23Don't take granted. Let's go.

10:28Oh, boy!

10:34All this excitement has made me sort of drowsy.

10:37Think I'll grab 40...

10:53Can you see anything?

10:54Why, this must be the secret lair of that evil old witch, Velma Van Damme.

11:01Any sign of the headless horseman?

11:04Yes, he's right behind us.

11:06Right behind us?

11:12Run!

11:17Rip! Rip, wake up!

11:19Rip!

11:32What?

11:37Oh, man!

11:40Rip!

11:41Rip!

11:42Rip!

11:43Rip!

11:44Rip!

11:45Rip!

11:45Ai, ai, ai, ai...

11:46AVI!

11:46Aver!

11:46Ah, ha ha ha, ah, ahh!

11:48Ahhh.

11:50Ahhh!

11:55phoo.

12:12Well, dearie,

12:14I couldn't catch your nosy friends, so I'll have to settle for you.

12:19Ha, ha, ha.

12:21Hmm, now let me see.

12:23What can I turn you into that will teach you a lesson?

12:29Of course, I see you're already turned in.

12:31Oh, get it?

12:32Turned in.

12:33Oh, Velma.

12:34Oh, you marvelous old hag.

12:36How do you do it?

12:37Oh, I can't stand it.

12:41Oh, you're just too, too delicious.

12:43What are we going to do?

12:52It's been all morning now.

12:54Rip hasn't returned.

12:56Well, if you know who got him, his goose is cooked.

13:01Hey, that reminds me.

13:03I'm hungry.

13:04There's no time to think about your stomach.

13:07There's too much at stake.

13:08There you go, talking about food again.

13:11Oh, ha, ha, ha.

13:12We've got to go back to that cabin and rescue Rip.

13:15Go back?

13:17But what about the...

13:20Well, if you think a huge headless man riding a giant black horse and waving a big, long,

13:25sharp sword is going to stop me...

13:28You're right.

13:30We need a plan.

13:31A plan?

13:32A plan?

13:33We've got to use our heads.

13:35I get a feeling that's what the horsemen would like.

13:38To use our heads.

13:41All great rescues start with a plan.

13:44Trickery.

13:45Deception.

13:46A master scheme.

13:48Yeah, I suppose you're right.

13:50We can't very well just knock on our door and say,

13:54Pardon me, you don't happen to have any short, bearded, sleepy old men lying around the place,

14:01do you?

14:02Of course.

14:04I have an idea how we can do just that.

14:07Now listen closely.

14:12Dad Dredd, let me go, you old hag.

14:16My friends will be back here to rescue me any moment.

14:20They'll fix you.

14:21Oh, that's rich.

14:24Rescue you?

14:26Why, if they show their noses around here, I'll simply transform myself into my favorite apparition,

14:32the headless horseman.

14:34And this time they won't get away.

14:37You?

14:38You're the headless horseman?

14:40At your service, dearie.

14:41A few choice words from this book of mine, and I turn into that delicious, mean, ugly monster.

14:50Certainly an improvement.

14:52That's all I can say.

14:53Oh, temper, temper, dearie.

14:56Oh, now, I think a perfect sell for you would be...

15:01Brat!

15:03How do you like that?

15:04I'm working up one of my best feats of evil magic, and he's going to sleep right through it.

15:09Where's the justice?

15:11I've got it.

15:14Since you like to sleep so much, you can do it a lot better as a sleepy old possum.

15:21Oh, now, let me see now.

15:24By a streak of lightning and thunderclap, by the nail on the end of my thumb.

15:28Bramazam, Bramazuni, a possum you'll become.

15:32Bramazuni, a possum you'll become.

15:33Bramazuni, a possum you'll become.

15:34Bramazuni, a possum you'll become.

15:35Dad, grab it! What scaldudgery is this? Turn me back, you ugly old head!

15:47You sculking old witch! Where will my friends come back? They'll...

15:52Oh, Belma, you devilishly clever old thing!

16:00Why, I haven't had this much fun since last Halloween, when I turned all the trees to stone and watched the woodpeckers beat their brains out!

16:14And who might you be?

16:17Why, madam, I represent the Wonder Wanna Maker Witchcraft Supply Company, makers of a complete line of useful products for the practice of witchcraft.

16:24You are, in fact, Belma Van Damme, witch?

16:28That's right, bub. Now, what do you want?

16:31Madam, your reputation is carried near and far. And may I say, now that I've laid eyes on you, you are positively bewitching.

16:40Well, I do my best, you know.

16:43To be sure. Now, may I interest you in some of my humble wares? Look, we're having a special on bat's blood this week.

16:50Well, I am a little low on bat's blood. Is it past your eyes?

16:55Step this way, madam, and be amazed.

18:07Hurry, Ichabod!

18:11I've got this terrible urge to hang upside down by my tail!

18:18Not so fast, boys!

18:21Hurry up, you people!

18:26This is going to be a habit!

18:32Come on, let's get out of here!

18:35Umbrella up, umbrella down, with a chuckle of mirthless flea, hee, hee, sassafras and sassanee, a dragon-time-mee!

18:46Ehhhhhhhhh!

18:48Ehhhhhhhhh!

18:53Well, maybe we could stay a few minutes.

18:58The Book! The Book! Try The Book!

19:01Jump up and down, throw hands in the air, give a crack and give a dare.

19:05You will now be a pair.

19:12Ichabod, do us all a favor. Watch your language.

19:17I'll try it backwards.

19:19Para be now with you.

19:30The gold! I forgot the gold!

19:35My book! Come back with my book, you fool!

19:50If I don't want to book, I can't become the headless horseman!

20:00Oh, I've still got a few tricks up my sleeve.

20:05Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

20:07Umbrella up! Umbrella down!

20:09With a chuckle of birthless clay!

20:12Scam-a-dump! Scam-a-drive!

20:14All you scare pros come alive!

20:19Go! Bring back my book!

20:21Teach those meddlers I love them!

20:23Ha, ha, ha!

20:29Yeah, we! That old witch must want this book pretty bad!

20:32Well, maybe it's overdue at the library!

20:37That book is the only thing that could turn me back into good old red man Winkle!

20:43So get picky!

20:46He's right! We've got to try more of these magic words!

20:49Here's a good one!

20:50Smaller way and tiny!

20:52I don't know how to turn on this one!

20:55Ben's running in the bus!

20:57You're so big!

20:59They get chuckin' out!

21:08Bubba's off the stage!

21:09You're so big!

21:18Here, here we are! I think I got it!

21:19Versus Amazuni!

21:28Hey, w-why?

21:30Well, it's about time, Dad Gretchen!

21:33Ichabod, quick! Now do something about them!

21:39Shhh! Shhh! Shhh! Shhhh! Shhh! Shhh!

21:45Abracadabra, Alakazee, the most terrifying ghost I will be!

21:53Mw-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w!

21:56Ichabod, is that you?

22:03Ja, ja, ja!

22:09Shoo! What happened?

22:13You did it, Ichabod. You must have found the magic spell that turns the owner of the book into the Headless Horseman.

22:21I never thought I'd be so glad to see him.

22:25Do you know what this means?

22:27Why, from now on, when that old witch makes trouble, I just have to use the book to become the Headless Horseman.

22:35Of course. She won't dare bother us then.

22:41Well, friends, let's go home.

22:53Rats! That skinny schoolteacher and his irritating friends have beaten me at my own game.

23:00Ugh! But not for long. I'll find a way to get that book back, or my name isn't Selma.

23:07Selma? Velma van- uh. Uh Pram?

23:11Uh, Dam! That's it! Velma Van Dam!

23:14Thelma!

23:15Thelma!

23:16Thelma!

23:17Thelma!

23:18Thelma!

23:19Thelma!

23:20Thelma!

23:21Thelma!

23:22Thelma!

23:23Thelma!

23:24Thelma!

23:25Thelma!

23:26Thelma!

23:27Thelma!

23:28Thelma!

23:29So the Headless Horseman is just a spell, and Thelma the Witch has used it well to frighten

23:36the people and steal their gold.

23:39But all the story has not yet been told.

23:43Would the Headless Horseman ride again?

23:46As Thelma the Witch?

23:48Or Ichabod Cray?

23:54Who is this man from Sleepy Hollow, whose courage has led him to fame?

24:02Who is this man, this man they all follow?

24:05Why, it's Ichabod!

24:07Ichabod!

24:08Ichabod Train!
