Where does the Headless Horseman rank among other American Monsters?

     Horror Films are a staple in American History. Washington Irving's creation of the Legend of Sleepy Hollow would be an original creation, that would spark horror in many people, and ultimately create a million dollar Industry which we know as horror movies. Washington created the Headless Horseman based off a German folktale. While Tim Burton many years later brought the Headless Horseman to life on the movie screen. When the Headless Horseman is mentioned, it brings fear and scary thoughts out of a lot of people. On a top 100 list of Monsters, rated from scariest.

Ranks

The Headless Horseman comes in ranked at number 13. 

Scary monsters like Freddy Krueger ( ranked 20) 

The Crypt Keeper (ranked 26)

 and surprisingly enough The Wicked Witch from The Wizard of Oz (ranked number 5) .

The Number 1 Monster of ALL TIME 

GODZILLA

     Many other american monsters were ranked on the TOP 100 list and you can see that list here via TOP 100 MONSTERS . I believe the Headless Horseman should be considered in the Top 10 and I do not think Godzilla is number one, even though the time that the monster was created and viewed on film, it swept worldwide, eliciting fear in all people, America to Japan.
