Dullahan is often referred to as the Headless Horseman. The Headless Horsemen was told as an unsolved mystery of an Irish family who had lost their son in a bizarre accident. Ormond Mallory was the son who owned a horse who he had named Follow because the horse would go wherever Mallory told him to go and he even taught him to meet at his house when they hadn't spent the day together. It is told that Mallory went on a hunt with Follow and never returned home for dinner one Christmas night. As the family waited for him to come home they were shocked to see Follow at their door carrying a bloody body on his back wearing Mallory's clothes. His head was missing with a clean stump where Mallory's head should have been. Mallory's head was never recovered. It is now said that the shadows of Mallory and his horse lurk near his old residence around Christmas time each year.
