#18: Headless Horseman

This Headless Horseman costume is nothing short of legendary, bringing Washington Irving’s haunting character to life in the most dramatic way possible. Riding a majestic black horse, the rider appears to be missing his head, with only the gruesome stump visible, adding an eerie realism to the classic tale.

The flowing black cloak and ominous posture atop the mighty steed create an unforgettable, spine-chilling scene from The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. This isn’t just a costume—it’s a full-on performance that embodies the dark, spectral presence of one of Halloween’s most iconic figures.
