Question:

What do you think happened to Ichabod Crane in the legend of sleepy hollow?

I read the book and thought of a theory... I think that the headless horseman is just and alter ego Brom Bones alter ego and he wanted to kill Brom Bones for his beloved Katrina Van Tassel... I want to hear your opinions and theories possibly involving what you think Katrina said to Ichabod during the party. That would be nice thank you.

Answer:

Ichabod crane was murdered by the headless horseman after he ventured into the woods alone.
For the best answers, search on this site Seeing as there are no other answers so far, I thought I'd write what I know :) I've never read the legend and the film may have a different ending, but in the film Ichabod returns to New York. x
What Happened To Ichabod Crane
I do think that Ichabod was murdered by either Brom or one of his friends. I can't imagine how the character Brom could have pulled it off without help. Although from a folklore standpoint, the story is loosely based off of the story of the Wild Hunt. The time of year in the story is right for the Wild Hunt to have been riding by, as well as the isolation of the town. In that case, Ichabod could have either joined in the hunt and become cursed as a rider himself, or been consumed by the various monsters that are said to ride with the King.
