Center
Primary
The film is a gothic horror mystery that explores the clash between rationalism and the supernatural, alongside themes of individual corruption and vengeance. Its narrative focuses on a localized threat and personal resolution, without explicitly promoting or critiquing broader political ideologies, thus resulting in a neutral rating.
The movie features a predominantly white cast without explicit race or gender swaps of traditional roles. Its narrative maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities, with DEI themes not being central to the story.
Secondary
Sleepy Hollow includes several LGBTQ+ characters whose identities are depicted respectfully and without negative stereotypes. Their same-sex relationships are normalized and portrayed positively, contributing to an overall affirming representation within the narrative.
The series heavily relies on Christian mythology, biblical prophecies, and the conflict between good and evil framed in Christian terms. The faith of characters like Ichabod Crane is often a source of strength, and the narrative generally affirms Christian tenets as a guiding force against supernatural threats.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The series introduces many new characters and expands the mythology of the original story. However, the established canonical characters from Washington Irving's 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,' such as Ichabod Crane and Katrina Van Tassel, retain their original genders.
The show introduces new, original characters like Abbie Mills, who is Black, but these are not adaptations of existing characters from the source material with a changed race. Core characters from the original story, such as Ichabod Crane and Katrina Van Tassel, maintain their established racial portrayals.
