I really like Tim Burton's movie and I don't say this very often, but in this case I can assure you that the movie is much better than the book.

A nice taste of autumn. This tale has less to do with the headless horseman (or sppoks) and more with the overall cultural and natural landscape of the Hudson River Valley near the tail end of the 18th century.

I had only read the two most well-known stories before this. At first I had an extremely boring time, especially with the level of seemingly unnecessary descriptions. By the end though, I was fully invested. Maybe the stories at the end were more dramatic? Still, I found myself enjoying both the stories and the prose when I finished the book. He definitely should should have killed that guy, by the way.
