The story begins when schoolteacher Ichabod Crane arrives in the quaint town of Sleepy Hollow. There, he discovers his predecessor was driven mad by evil spirits. Not one to believe in ghosts, Ichabod takes a personal interest in the "Headless Horseman" who terrorizes the townspeople with his midnight runs. In one hair-raising encounter after another, Ichabod meets the demon head-on (so to speak) and discovers the truth behind the legend. The timid teacher is soon transformed from laughing-stock to town hero in this gothic tale of early America.

The film was a modernization of the Wells' story, making the Time Traveller a 1970s scientist working for a fictional US defense contractor, "the Mega Corporation". Dr. Neil Perry (John Beck), the Time Traveller, is described as one of Mega's most reliable contributors by his senior co-worker Branly (Whit Bissell, an alumnus of the 1960 adaptation). Perry's skill is demonstrated by his rapid reprogramming of an off-course missile, averting a disaster that could destroy Los Angeles. His reputation secures a grant of $20 million for his time machine project. Although nearing completion, the corporation wants Perry to put the project on hold so that he can head a military weapon development project. Perry accelerates work on the time machine, permitting him to test it before being forced to work on the new project.
