Do you know of Demi Adejuyigbe, the man who comes out with a September music video that just says the words "21st of September" every year on September the 21st, each video getting increasingly more involved than the last?
Edit: Well, I guess that all stopped a couple years ago

I got a question or two.
What exactly are you questioning?
And did you talk to them and get their permission to take pictures of their home and post it on the internet?

This is very much American folklore, though there's no denying it could be inspired by others'.
From the wikipedia:
>The legend of the Headless Horseman (also known as "the Headless Hessian of the Hollow") begins in Sleepy Hollow, New York, during the American Revolutionary War. Traditional folklore holds that the Horseman was a Hessian trooper who was killed during the Battle of White Plains in 28th October 1776. He was decapitated by an American cannonball,
There is a book in the Internet Archive called the Memoirs of Major General William Heath published in 1901 in which there is a single sentence on page 73 that says:
>A shot from the American cannon at this place took off the head of a Hessian artillery-man.
If you're like me and you're thinking, "What the hell is a Hessian?" I can tell you that apparently a Hessian is a German soldier who fought with the British during the Revolutionary War. They were "auxiliaries" from the German government, as in they were hired out to the British. The term Hessian was coined because a significant number of these soldiers came from the German states of Hesse-Kassel and Hesse-Hanau.
So, the Headless Hessian would, indeed, be a German. And what German would be caught dead galloping while headless?
