Hello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom!
In honor of Halloween, we will dive into the eerie life — or rather, afterlife — of one of the most infamous figures in American folklore: The Headless Horseman.
The Headless Horseman — a figure that has galloped through the imaginations of generations — is best known from Washington Irving’s classic story, “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” But who was he? And where did this terrifying apparition come from?
