Chat It's Fate

Undead head

-

The Dullahan is a terrifying headless horseman from Irish folklore. A harbinger of death, he carries his head under one arm, and holds a whip made from a human spine. On his rotting face, his hideous grin stretches from ear to ear. And as if all that that wasn’t horrific enough, his horse pulls a wagon made from human skin, with wheel spokes made from thigh bones, lit with candles in skulls. Catching a glimpse of the Dullahan is bad news, as he will pluck out your eyes with a lash of his whip, then pour blood over you. But if he stops his wagon near you, you’re in even more trouble, as that means you’re about to die. Luckily, the Dullahan is terrified of gold, so throw a gold coin at him and he’ll disappear - and you might just live to tell the tale.
