About the game
The Headless Horseman is galloping across the countryside, a harbinger of terror. He revels in the dread etched into the souls of all who dare to glimpse his haunting visage. Escape is nigh impossible as the creeping fear encircles you, ready to consume your very being. Don't lose your head! He rides without a head, yet his presence is louder than any scream. The Headless Horseman thrives on fear itself, turning the dread of his opponents into his greatest weapon. Every encounter with him becomes a test of nerve as much as strength. His Haunted Head afflicts foes with terror, while Dreadful tokens fuel his growing power. His spectral steed drives Grim Pursuit, granting extra rolls and amplifying damage as he closes in on inevitable doom. Those who hear his gallop rarely live to see the dawn. —description from the publisher
