The bachelor thesis deals with The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a short story by Washington Irving and its changes in various movie adaptations. It presents theories of adaptation by Linda Hutcheon and Jack Boozer and applies the theories to movies by Tim Burton. A description of Burton's Gothic style is included to make it easier to understand the changes in his adaptations. A number of adaptations by various authors are described to demonstrate how a story can be modified by different authors.
