The Dullahan is also known as the "Gan Ceann", which is simply Irish for "without head"

@seosamhrooney4819
@seosamhrooney4819 2 года назад
Irish is a conjugate language. In this case Gan means lacking or without and Ceann is head. So Gan Ceann means "to lack a head" or "without head". However, Nil an ceann agam means I don't have a head or I am without a head. Gan is not used because it doesn't make grammatical sense. Therefore a closer translation would actually be "Headless". For example, Pobal Gan Ceann (Leaderless Person), would mean "without head" in the sense of like without a head of state, or the revolution continued without a head: hence headless in a different meaning. So while we know it as Gan Ceann as in Headless Horseman, the phrase "gan ceann" can mean multiple things depending on the conjugation of the sentence. And without head can be described in multiple different ways. Which is fascinating, and thought you might like to know, if you ever decide to further investigate irish myths and legends

Fr bro, like Balor and his evil eye that destroys everything in its path, Lugh, who is basically Celtic Thor, in that he is somewhat the main fighting force of the pantheon, Morrigan, goddess of Death, Fate / Prophecy, and War, and Dagda, who is kinda the god of everything else, like Magic, Life, Time, Agriculture, etc. and Cu Chulainn who spends his lifetime as a demigod killing thousands of men, and then finally on the brink of death, he ties himself by his intestines to a tree so that he can still stand and fight, and proceeds to kill 9 more guys before dying. Celtic mythology is underrated as hell

Considering from what I read, the one from the Sleepy Hollow legends say the horseman is a Hessian hired by the Brits during the American Revolution, died right as a cannonball deleted his own head. So maybe the Hessian heard the story of Dullahan and just dawned the appearance of the figure because it looked cool. If that was the case, the Horseman became one of the iconic characters in Halloween Mythos
