Given my obsession with the new series on Fox, Sleepy Hollow, I thought a great Looking Back would be revisiting the Headless Horseman set, a favorite of most Walt Disney Classics Collection collectors!

"When thundering hoofs echo through the darkness in the tiny valley of Sleepy Hollow, fearful farmers pull the covers over their heads.
The only man foolish enough to be on the roads on such a night is Ichabod Crane. But is that ghastly figure bearing down on the teacher a wrathful spirit -- or just a jealous prankster?"

The Headless Horseman ("Haunting Horseman") and Ichabod and his Horse ("Terrified Teacher"), a NumberedLimited Edition (NLE) set of only 3,500, plussed with a stainless steel sword were sculpted by Kent Melton.
Redemption forms were sent to active Walt Disney Collector Society members in July, 2000. Orders were taken on a first come-first serve basis. Sculptures began to ship in Fall, 2000.
My display is enhanced with resin tombstones replica of tombstones from the Haunted Mansion Attraction that was available last year (and again this year) thru Disney Shopping. The tombstones fit in perfectly with the set. I had really hoped they would have done more this year.
