Sleepy Hollow Casts Mother Mills: Is She Alive?

at .

To conclude Sleepy Hollow Season 1, Ichabod received quite a surprise about his son.

Now, it appears as if Abbie will be in for a dose of shock herself on Sleepy Hollow Season 2.

Entertainment Weekly reports that Aunjanue Ellis (The Mentalist) has been cast in the role of Lori Mills, the presumed dead mother of Abbie and Jenny.

On the Fox drama, Abbie and Jenny are taken from their mentally ill mother as kids and made wards of the state, eventually ending up in foster care.

The sisters believe that their parent killed herself 16 years ago, but Abbie and Jenny will discover the truth about their mother when new information surfaces this fall.

Might she be alive? Or will we only see Ellis via flashback?

Sleepy Hollow Season 2 premieres on September 22 at 9 p.m. on Fox.

Sleepy Hollow Quotes

Abbie: Who is he? When's the last time you saw him?
Ichabod: When I cut off his head.

Police Detective: Do you admit to cutting off his head, yes or no?
Ichabod: Nooo. First I shot him, then he rose back up. Cutting off his head seemed the next logical step.
