Complete story — includes the ending

Ichabod and Abbie, while studying George Washington's Bible, learn of a map of purgatory that was created after Washington's death and was likely buried along with his body in a secret location. They enlist the help of Henry Parrish in locating Washington's burial site. Meanwhile, Andy, after failing to persuade Abbie to give him the map, is granted demonic powers by Moloch. Inside Washington's tomb, Ichabod, Abbie, and Henry locate the map, but are then ambushed by Andy. Only Ichabod's quick thinking allows them to seal him away and retrieve it. After an argument with Abbie over whether or not to use the map to free Katrina, Ichabod burns it. Meanwhile, Irving, seemingly unable to explain how two men and a priest were killed while fighting a possessed Macey, confesses to the murders to protect her.
