Biography Flash: Headless Horseman Rides Again - Sleepy Hollow Hype, Disney Parade, and More
The Headless Horseman Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
You know, most days my inbox is a minefield of press releases about congressional hearings and tech bros, but once a year the big news beat is a guy with no head and, presumably, a pretty hefty dry cleaning bill for that cape: the Headless Horseman. Let us gallop through what’s newsworthy, weird, or simply trending in the life—or afterlife—of this fictional legend over the past few days.
The big headline, and one that’s actually making Sleepy Hollow’s event planners giddy, is the ramp-up to the annual Headless Horseman Festival at Conner Prairie. It starts October 2nd, but the buzz is already bouncing around like Ichabod Crane on a bumpy hayride. The event promises hayrides through fictional haunted woods, axe-throwing for anybody who thinks they can hit something without being able to see (that’s called “immersion theater,” I believe), and haunted corn mazes where kids and parents alike can try to keep their heads on straight. There’s also, naturally, an Apple Store celebrating its 40th anniversary, which is probably the only place the Horseman goes to upgrade his iHorse[Conner Prairie].
Meanwhile, if you want to meet your nightmares in full Disney Technicolor, the Headless Horseman pranced back down Buena Vista Street at Disneyland’s Oogie Boogie Bash just last weekend. Footage captured by Jonny Amusement on YouTube shows the headless wonder leading the parade—before Mickey, Minnie, and a convoy of criminally underpaid Disney villains. Honestly, he hasn’t looked this good since 1820. Who knew a dead Hessian soldier would become such a crowd-pleaser[Jonny Amusement YouTube]?
On the east coast, Sleepy Hollow, NY’s block party and hayride—yes, literally along Ichabod Crane’s flight path—is selling tickets faster than you can say “spectral litigation.” The press is already hyping their October events, haunted hayrides, and, get this, a family-friendly Halloween parade. Nothing says “community unity” quite like culminating your night with a guy who lobs flaming pumpkins at schoolteachers[Village of Sleepy Hollow Press].
Elsewhere, the legend mutates: in Texas, sightings of El Muerto—their own headless outlaw—are trending again in paranormal forums and, probably, on whatever Texas considers viral. If nothing else, it means no matter where you live, someone is riding headless and causing travel advisories at your local haunted hayride[iHorror.com].
No arrests yet, no pumpkin shortages reported, and the only verified public meltdown was me, earlier today, trying to buy a Sleepy Hollow hayride ticket before they sold out. It didn’t end well.
Thanks for lending me your ears, since the Horseman can’t use his. Subscribe to never miss an update on the world’s most famous decapitated commuter—and if you need more rapid-fire bios, search “Biography Flash.” I’ll see you on the spooky side.
