Get ready to revisit the world of Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow this coming week as IDW Publishing launches the comic book prequel series Sleepy Hollow: The Witches of the Western Wood; take a look at the official preview of the first issue below…
Before Mary Van Tassel terrorized the town of Sleepy Hollow with the devilish Headless Horseman, she was Sarah Archer — a young girl trying to survive her witch of a mother. Sarah and her twin are raised in the wild Western Wood, taught the ways of witchcraft, and forced to endure abuse and neglect. But a chance encounter with the hellish Hessian at the moment of his beheading lights a fire in Sarah, giving her the power to overcome those who have wronged her and grow into a fearsome witch.
From Delilah Dawson and Jose Jaro comes the tale of Sarah Archer’s corruption and the Headless Horseman’s first ride.
Sleepy Hollow: The Witches of the Western Wood #1 is out on Wednesday, May 6th 2026.
