Hannah Partsch

It’s spoooooooooky season! And we are officially here for the ghostly stories as we count down to Halloween! This week, Hannah tells Katy (with a little help from Jarek) about the legends of the Headless Horseman, and how Sleepy Hollow is the least of your worries. From rotten cheese heads, to demons who last-minute convert to Christianity to avoid hell, to a dumb Scottish dude who cursed a fairy and lost his head in battle. These tales will give you a whole new reason to stay in after dark. Bonus topic: lucid decapitation, if you need a little existential dread to keep you up at night. Sources: https://www.irishcultureandcustoms.com/ACalend/Dullahan.htmlhttps://www.damninteresting.com/lucid-decapitation/https://www.scotclans.com/scotland/scottish-myths/supernatural-scotland/ewan-headless/https://www.scotsmagazine.com/articles/the-headless-horseman/https://science.howstuffworks.com/science-vs-myth/extrasensory-perceptions/lucid-decapitation.htmhttps://www.history.com/news/legend-sleepy-hollow-headless-horsemanhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crom_Cruachhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crom_Dubhhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dullahanhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headless_Horseman
