Synopsis

Experience the eerie charm of Washington Irving s legendary tale brought to life in The Headless Horseman! Starring the iconic Will Rogers, these atmospheric silent classic blends humor, romance, and spine-tingling folklore as the superstitious Ichabod Crane finds himself entangled in a terrifying midnight encounter that may or may not be more than a ghostly legend.

Join us for this hauntingly fun cinematic experience featuring live organ accompaniment tailored to the film by Ken Double.

Audience members are encouraged to arrive early for a pre-show performance by our guest organist Rosemary Bailey 30 minutes before the film.
