The Dullahan 🐴 A Headless Horseman from Irish folklore 🇮🇪

The Dullahan is a type of legendary creature in Irish folklore. He is depicted as a headless rider on a black horse, or as a coachman, who carries his own head. As it is not widely described in native sources, and no references to it appears on the Irish Folklore Commission's website, there is doubt as to whether the Dullahan was originally a part of the Irish oral tradition. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dullahan
