SLEEPY HOLLOW, N.Y. -- The Headless Horseman and Ichabod Crane have returned to Sleepy Hollow for Halloween, and this time they won't be disappearing afterward into the mists of legend.

Just in time to frighten young trick-or-treaters, an 18-foot-high steel sculpture of the Horseman and his gangly patsy arrived Tuesday morning on a flatbed truck. It was to be erected later in the day alongside Route 9, not far from the grave of Washington Irving, author of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.''

"This is so exciting,'' said Elena Malunis, chairwoman of the committee that brought the monument to Sleepy Hollow. "I drive down Route 9 every day, and I've been imagining what it would look like.''
