Book of Fables Entry
''Thought to be the spirit of a particularly fearsome, especially macabre military German contractor, the Headless Horseman lost his head from cannon fire during the Revolutionary War. Most famous for hounding Ichabod Crane one night in the woods of Sleepy Hollow, it is rumored that this phantom is only the most recent incarnation of a primordial demon, whose previous forms include a Middle-Aged chieftain who brandished a whip made from human bone, and a Scottish lord who was decapitated in a fight over shares of land.''
