Gavin was riding with Abbie when they got news about a mysterious church in the outskirts of Sleepy Hollow. Ichabod eventually tagged along after realizing the name of it, St. Vlad's; apparently, it was cursed and under renovation, though people were being scared away. They investigated and then the duo got separated from Ichabod after they found it was being infested by the undead and ruled by an ancient tyrant. Gavin and Abbie bashed their way through and found Ichabod lifeless. They took him to August's cabin to recover and they found out that St. Vlad was owned by his late father, Vladimir Crane. He also had a deceased mom named Celeste. The mother and child were always on the run from their estranged dad on finding out about her forbidden abilities.
The next day, the trio investigated further, only to be ambushed by Crane. He was possessed by his malicious father's spirit, poisoning his mind. Fortunately, the Onondagas came to their aid by putting Ichabod to sleep from a flash grenade. Only to have Gavin's arm injured during the fight. They went to the village, only to have Turgado exorcise Ichabod. It was painful, though successful, as Vlad's spirit was released, and Ichabod was incapacitated and sent to Purgatory. Gavin, Abbie, and the chief were helpless against him until the Cranes turned the tides when Celeste led Ichabod on a ritual. Vlad's spirit was vanquished, and Gavin was so relieved to see his mentor as his normal self. Then, Turgado and Ichabod guided Celeste to the netherworld and lastly, Ichabod made a heartwarming, tearful farewell to her.
== Trivia ==
* This was a Jossed, non-canon fic that may take place somewhere in Season 2. It was Jossed since this was supposed to combine events from the TV series and the Paramount movie in order to explain more of Ichabod's parents. Unfortunately, Crane wasn't affected by the Liberty Bell, cause of no spellcasting heritage, so it was a bust!
* His father was a member of Parliament who disowned him, while his mom was unknown. Actually, his REAL father, from Col. Ichabod Crane was Gen. William Crane, his mom was Abigail Miller Crane, and grandfather was Stephen Crane.
