LESSON #1 - Setting the Scene
Massachusetts in search of the infamous Headless Horseman of Ichabod Crane fame But of course they were in the wrong state The Headless Horseman of literary legend could only be found in Sleepy Hollow, New York Until
Maximus Kligore, a pawn in an even more vile
and evil underworld plan, saw an incredible
opportunity to not only bring glory to his own
despicable self, but to bring Sleepy Hollow,
Massachusetts out of certain nancial ruin So
the townsfolk were more than happy to go along
with his plan Using dark magic, Kligore plunged
the town into a state of eternal Halloween,
commissioned the construction of a huge, bronze Headless Horseman
statue to be erected in the town green and ordered all stores, shops and businesses to take on the holiday of Halloween—forever! His plan succeeded and Sleepy Hollow, Massachusetts has become one of the country’s leading tourist traps ... er, destinations There was only one thing Kligore did not account for—the only power strong enough to halt his evil plans—the power of Good and Light in the person of thirteen-year-old, Harry Moon
In compliance with the mayor’s proclamation, everything in Sleepy Hollow is wrapped in Halloween The street names, the names of the stores, school mascots and even Christmas is a time to celebrate the dark Kligore thought of everything—even the weather Seasons barely change in Sleepy Hollow, it is always Autumn as the scent of pumpkin spice, apple cider and nutmeg waft through town on the breeze
When tourists arrive in Sleepy Hollow they are encouraged to visit the Chamber of Commerce where they will receive a welcome packet Inside that packet they will nd:
A full-color walking map of Sleepy Hollow A letter from Maximus Kligore
A Sleepy Hollow Key chain lanyard
And a packet of pumpkin spice potpourri
