Trivia:
The cast and crew often said "The feeling one had walking around Sleepy Hollow's sets, and in particular the town at Lime Tree, was almost as if you were walking around the inside of [Tim] Burton's head."
more
Goofs:
Factual errors: In the opening scene, when the little boy is lighting his candle to see the figures on the wall, he sits very close to the candle. So the light from the figures should be visible not only on the wall behind the boy, but also on the boy himself. This does not happen.

Baltus Van Tassel:
[to Ichabod] Young sir, you are most welcome, even if you are selling something.

Tim Burton has brought this timeless classic to life! "Sleepy Hollow" is a very fine film, with horrific delights, a touch of romance, and witty humor. I was very impressed with the cinematography and the elaborate costumes in this film. Also, the music and sound effects complimented this frightening and legendary story of the murderous Headless Horseman. Overall, I believe this is an excellent film and will definitely be remembered as a landmark in the thriller/horror genre of film.
