'Sleepy Hollow' Season 2 Spoilers: Ichabod's Crazy Ex Returns, Along With a New Man for Abbie
"Sleepy Hollow" will soon return to Fox, and this season is likely to be filled with as much action and adventure as the first. New characters are coming to Sleepy Hollow and will, of course, provide much more drama and new problems for Ichabod Crane and his cohort, Abbie. One new character in particular will prove a hindrance to Ichabod … an ex-girlfriend.
Heather Lind, who stars on "Turn," will star as Mary Wells, an ex-girlfriend of Ichabod's who manages to cross the pond from England to Sleepy Hollow. Mary is mentally unstable and has a very dark side, and is intensely protective of Ichabod, though not in a good or healthy way. In fact, she could prove to be a wedge between he and Abbie as they try to prevent the end of the world.
Also joining the cast is Matt Barr, who worked on "One Tree Hill." Barr will play Nick Hawley, a bounty hunter who helps Ichabod and Abbie. His role is a recurring one, so viewers will get to see Hawley form relationships with Ichabod and Abbie. The pair definitely need as much help as they can get.

Ichabod and Abbie have a lot to deal with this season: Ichabod's son, whom he thought was dead, turned out to be alive and well as one of the Four Horseman, War. Two of the Four Horseman are now running rampant, and it won't be long before the other two are likely to join. When viewers last saw Ichabod, he was buried alive by his son and Abbie was trapped in Purgatory.
"It's a season about War," executive producer Mark Goffman said during a TV panel. "It's a season about Redemption. What do you do when your son becomes the Horseman of the apocalypse? That's what Ichabod is going to have to contemplate if he gets out of that pine box."
"Sleepy Hollow" returns to Fox on September 22.
