In this update of Washington Irving's classic tale, Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) wakes up in the 21st century but finds his 18th-century nemesis, the Headless Horseman, has also come along for the ride. After a local sheriff (Clancy Brown) is killed, Crane teams up with Det. Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie) to sort out the mystery and its historical implications, though her supervisor, Capt. Frank Irving (Orlando Jones) is skeptical of all the supernatural shenanigans. And as Season 1 unfolds, these otherworldly events include encounters with menacing demons, frightening explorations of purgatory and impending visits by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Victorian era vampire Alexander Grayson arrives in England and poses as an American entrepreneur. Throughout the series we see Grayson fight vampire hunters, uncover a mysterious cult called the Order of the Dragon, gets help from Van Helsing to try and walk in daylight and goes to war with a powerful group.
