Headless Horseman Halloween Memories
"Imagine if the Headless Horseman had a headless horse? That would be f@#&in' chaos."
Mitch Hedberg

During your liquid lunch today (I know what you're up to, rascals), maybe you take a couple minutes for a little All Hallows Eve reminiscing.

In 1958 Disney produced the animated masterpiece The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. A whimsical retelling of the classic Washington Irving short story. (I highly recommend reading that. I won't take you very long. It's incredible.)

The chase scene with the Horseman trying to cut off poor Echowood's Ichabod's head is one of the finest pieces of animation you'll ever see.



Ah, memories...

Did You Know: Sleepy Hollow High School are The Horseman?!? That's their mascot. Amazing. We were just the stupid Eagles.

Old Disney Classics can't be beat. They're the best.

That is one of my all time fav movies. And thanks for the kickass Hedberg quote. He was such a great comedian. You should really do a dedication post about him with some of his clips

It's a good idea, Kevin. I'll see what I can do.

I went to Legend Night in Sleepy Hollow several years ago. Very cool event. And the best goddamn pretzels I've ever had.

Man, J-Dub that really takes me back. I love it.

Should we do a couple more Halloween memory posts before the 31st? I can if you guys want. A little break in your day to remember our misspent youths.

Yes yes! Give us more JW. Pretty please with cherries on top??
