The long-awaited sequel to Hollow reunites the original team for a new paranormal adventure featuring the ghost made famous in Washington Irving''s story, The Woman in White. A NEW PARANORMAL ADVENTURE! The long-awaited sequel from New York Times bestselling writer Shannon Watters (Lumberjanes) and Branden Boyer-White, alongside fan-favorite artist Berenice Nelle, is finally here! Return to Sleepy Hollow, the quiet but eerie little upstate New York village that''s home to Izzy, Vicky, Croc... and of course, the Headless Horseman himself. In the months following their first adventure, Izzy and Vicky are officially a couple now, and so are Croc and Marjorie, leaving Croc''s bestie Leon feeling left out and abandoned. But that might not be their biggest problem when a centuries-old supernatural power reawakens! The ghost made famous in Washington Irving''s story, The Woman in White, who has haunted Raven Rock since the night she froze to death there, may have found a way to break through to our side... It''s up to the crew to team up once again to save one of their own in a race against time!

Isabel "Izzy" Crane and her family have just relocated to Sleepy Hollow, the town made famous by--and obsessed with--Washington Irving''s legend of the Headless Horseman. But city slicker-skeptic Izzy has no time for superstition as she navigates life at a new address, a new school, and, with any luck, with new friends. Ghost stories aren''t real, after all.... Then Izzy is pulled into the orbit of the town''s teen royalty, Vicky Van Tassel (yes, that Van Tassel) and loveable varsity-level prankster Croc Byun. Vicky''s weariness with her family connection to the legend turns to terror when the trio begins to be haunted by the Horseman himself, uncovering a curse set on destroying the Van Tassel line. Now, they have only until Halloween night to break it--meaning it''s a totally inconvenient time for Izzy to develop a massive crush on the enigmatic Vicky. Can Izzy''s practical nature help her face the unknown--or only trip her up? As the calendar runs down to the 31st, Izzy will have to use all of her wits and work with her new friends to save Vicky and uncover the mystery of the legendary Horseman of Sleepy Hollow--before it''s too late. New York Times-bestselling writer Shannon Watters (Lumberjanes) and debut author Branden Boyer-White are joined by artist Berenice Nelle (Wanderlicht) in a coming of age tale that''s at once a faithful homage and a free-wheeling spin-off of the classic Legend of Sleepy Hollow and everyone''s favorite headless specter.
