Two Thrilling Equine Celebrities Are Celebrating A Birthday

Time is flying in 2025, so much so that we can actually say we are officially over the halfway mark to Halloween

The Headless Horseman's Steeds Celebrate a Birthday Halfway to Halloween

The Hudson Valley is full of ghost stories and Halloween haunts, but one place has a unique spin on our local legends and haunted history. Headless Horseman Hayrides and Haunted Houses in Ulster Park can really bring "It" when it comes to Halloween Frights.

One of their signature characters adds a bit of reality to what most would see as just good Halloween fun. I would say that the Headless Horseman and his mighty steed make the haunted legend seem very real.

Don't believe me, just head out there one night and catch a glimpse of the Headless Horseman on the trail, and you will believe. I had the privilege of working one season at Headless Horseman as a storyteller, and the first time I saw the Headless Horseman in the field all I could think was, how brilliant.

Meet the Horses That the Headless Horseman Rides in Ulster Park, New York

The horseman him or her self is awesome, but the black horses that accompany the Horseman are perfect for the role. Meet Grim and Ichabod, who are one-half of an amazing attraction.

Headless Horseman actually just put the spotlight on Grim and Ichabod this past week because they were both celebrating a birthday this month.

The birthday post received numerous comments. Everyone was wishing these two a Happy Birthday. My favorite part of the post was them sharing that people actually ask if the horseman rides a real horse. Of course, the answer is yes.

The curious question I always had was how many headless horsemen there were. Now knowing there are two horses, I will go with there are 2 Horsemen. But everything is so mysterious at Headless Horseman, I am probably incorrect.
