"Legend of Sleepy Hollow"

One story telling technique that I found was diction. Just in the first couple of paragraphs the diction shows the tone of the story really well. The diction is used to show that the author is going for a scary theme because he describes the headless horseman and it is creepy to picture that in my head.

"Legand of Sleepy Hollow" Vocab/First Impression

So far I think that "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is interesting because this isn't something that I normally read. I think that it is going to be creepy because of the first couple of pages. It introduces the character on the horse with no head and that it just weird to think about and picture.
