How many times did he stop, half-dead in fear, before a bush of snow, which, like a ghost in a shroud, blocked his way! How many times did he freeze with horror, hearing his own footsteps in the frozen snow and afraid to look back, lest he find some monster behind him chasing him!

Some talk about his enchanted valleys and streams, a ghostly woman in white, eerie midnight screams, but most of all they talk about the Headless Horseman. A huge, ghostly soldier who terrifies hapless travelers.
