Skyrim Where to Find The Headless Horseman

In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the Headless Horseman is an elusive ghostly apparition who roams the countryside —likely modeled after Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a story where a headless horseman frightens a New England Village, the Headless Horseman in Skyrim always appears riding his deceased horse and without his head. While his identity is not confirmed in the game, the Headless Horseman may be the ghost of Ragnar the Red, a character often mentioned in songs sung by the local people whose head was cut off by a shieldmaiden.

Identifiable by his see-through pallor and ghostly horse, the Headless Horseman also wears Steel Plate Armor and wields a Battleaxe, made of either iron or steel. Players can find the Headless Horseman at any time, day or night in Skyrim. During the day, players can discover the Headless Horseman at Hamvir’s Rest, a Nordic tomb on the south side of the mountain range between Skyrim’s Whiterun and Hjaalmarch on Whiterun’s Northern border. If the player uses fast travel to arrive at Hamvir’s Rest, they will spot the Headless Horseman arriving just outside the above-ground entrance to the tomb in the cemetery. Using this method, the Headless Horseman will not move until the Dragonborn is out of his sight.

At night in Skyrim, the Headless Horseman can spawn anywhere in the world but is most likely to appear on the road. For the best chance to find him at night, players should look for him between the hours of 10 pm and 6 am. Players should search the main routes and ensure their viewing distance is set to maximum in the game’s settings. If found this way, the Headless Horseman may stop to let the player examine him before he continues riding.

The Headless Horseman’s Location in Skyrim

Once players spot the Headless Horseman at night, they should ride their own horse in Skryim to follow him on the road. He rides quickly, so players will have to be vigilant to keep up with him. Before the sun rises, players will have the opportunity to hear his unique lines of dialogue. He will give vague warnings about disturbing his rest and inform the player they are not welcome. If the player continues to follow him, the Headless Horseman will eventually lead them to Hamvir’s Rest. At the cemetery, players will encounter three skeletons and one leveled Draugr to fight. The Headless Horseman himself never joins the fight. After the battle, players will find a master-level chest, some random items in Skyrim, and nightshade, an herb useful for crafting. As the player fights these enemies, the Headless Horseman will advise the player that they will join the dead and that all the living shall fear the dead.

There is a way for players to see the Headless Horseman’s head though. If PC players use console commands to remove all items after selecting the Headless Horseman, his head will appear. This may be because his unique Steel Plate Armor, without a helmet, is what causes his headless appearance. Of note, the Headless Horseman performs no actions, cannot be harmed by the Dragonborn and is also not connected to any quests in Skyrim.
