After the shocking death of Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie) in the Season 3 finale — who knowingly sacrificed her life to save Sleepy Hollow and defeat The Hidden One (Peter Mensah) and Pandora (Shannyn Sossamon) — her partner Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) is now headed to Washington, D.C. for the show’s fourth season. There, he’ll join a secret organization — originally created by President George Washington — that hunts down evil supernatural creatures and look for the next Witness.
To promote tonight’s season premiere, FOX has released a piece of key art. It features a Ichabod’s body cradling his own head — staring straight at the camera — in his left arm.

Following a 250-year slumber, Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) devoted his life and knowledge of the supernatural to defeating the demonic forces that plagued Sleepy Hollow in the present day. But following the climactic events of last season, Crane’s world was turned upside down after the death of his partner and fellow Witness, Abbie Mills. He was then led out of town by a mysterious group promising to put him in charge of an evil-fighting organization created hundreds of years ago by none other than George Washington.
Crane now finds himself in an all-new city working with all-new allies, as he embarks on his most important mission yet: To save our nation’s capital from otherworldly threats that promise harm, not only to our country and our people, but to the soul of democracy itself.
