“His body was taken to a little church near the battlefield,” these people continued. “It was buried in the graveyard next to the church. But his head still lies somewhere on the battlefield. Every night, the Horseman rides back to the battlefield to
look for his head. But he never finds it. And the always has to return to the graveyard before dawn. All ghosts have to go back to their graves before the daylight comes. And
the Headless Horseman is always in a hurry because he’s always late. That’s why herides so fast.”
