Most people that I know (including me) are only familiar with the story on a basic level. I only recall one scene from an animated version or maybe a children's illustrated book of the tale: Ichabod Crane says the Headless Horseman is bunk, walks through the woods and is chased by HH. Ichabod manages to get across the covered bridge, back to safety.

Depp is playing Ichabod Crane.
