Horseman's Ride

Halloween. A time for glorifying and celebrating the strange and spooky aspects of our universe with parties, and costumes, and creepy base builds! Despite its pagan roots, our modern celebration of Halloween has evolved into a sugar-coated, festive occasion.

This day, Halloween, has evolved through, and been embellished by, ghost stories, one of the more famous of which is Washington Irving's horror classic, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, an eerie tale involving a headless horseman.

Jack Prelutsky, a writer who composes lyrical poetry for children, has used the notion of a "headless horseman" to set a dark and frightening mood, one that befits the encroaching darkness and galloping dangers of a more ancient Halloween.

The Headless Horseman rides tonight
Through stark and starless skies,
Shattering the silence with
His otherworldly cries.
He races through the darkness
On his alabaster steed,
The Headless Horseman rides tonight,
Wherever the fates would lead.
