'Bones/Sleepy Hollow' Crossover Spoilers: Will David Boreanaz's Booth See Abbie Mills' Secret?

Season 11 of Bones and Season 3 of Sleepy Hollow have a special Halloween episode on Fox. In the Bones/Sleepy Hollow crossover event, are Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie) and Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) in danger of Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) discovering their "secret?"

As we previously mentioned, Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel), Booth (Boreanaz), Ichabod (Mison), and Abbie Mills (Beharie) come along for the supernatural ride. In the special Halloween episodes, the foursome will end up collaborating after the history-making discovery of a 200-year-old skeleton. As they all deal with their communication issues, the corpse happens to lead the group straight into the path of Crane's deadliest enemies.

In an interview with TV Line, Deschanel mentions Brennan's knowledge in the Bones universe, much like the Sleepy Hollow, has no connection between Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and its misplaced time-traveling protagonist, Ichabod Crane.

Mison states that Ichabod is suspicious of Brennan and Booth, keeping secret that he's hundreds of years old, "He still needs to keep certain things secret. [There's] an opportunity for him to be found out slightly in the crossover, which he manages to avoid quite deftly." 

Beharie adds that Abbie is also, "a little reticent to be extremely open because she doesn't want Booth to find out that there's more going on."

Abbie and Booth also share a connection with Sleepy Hollow's late Sheriff August Corbin. The Angel actor believes there may be mentor/protege relationship between Abbie and Booth, "maybe he can be somewhat of a role model for her in the FBI."
