Are all the lights on? Is there a parent in the house? Are the windows shut and locked? Double-check!

While you may have heard of Ichabod Crane, Katrina Van Tassel, and the Headless Horseman, you've never SEEN them quite like this -- through the macabre imagination of the inimitable Gris Grimly. So, take a deep breath and take a long look. And you may want to bring a flashlight to bed with you tonight....
