Description
Welp! I dunno what happened, I guess Headless just wanted me to post one more picture of his previous state of being on Deviantart as some kinda immortalization! Don’t know why, but oh well! 🤷♀️And so now that that was out of the way, time to tackle the new immersion idea I had come up with in the process of making this Halloween-centric Art Process; *Ahem*—
The dark forest floor was full of a scattering of dead leaves of varying earthly colors, with a mix of hues of orange added into the mix occasionally as well. Unless one was familiar with the area, there was no need to worry about getting lost as all the trails that were completely covered by these dead leaves; which seemed as though they were nothing more than a beautifully dark patterned carpet. However, in this particular forest, even the longest enduring resident never dared to venture out into the forest. Many ghost stories were traded on the tongues of several people, spoken in hushed whispers, or shared with fascinated and awed breaths. But one thing was certain, one story above all else would prove to have a shocking amount of truth to its existence; the very infamous legend of all of Sleepy Hollow, the dreaded Headless Horseman.
Many have tried to explain away this haunting phenomenon, but their heads never quite succeeded that feat, seeing as how they had disappeared from their shoulders before they were aware of it. The only thing that had ended up accomplishing, was adding another unlucky head to the immortal legend’s collection, and they would thusly end up never to be seen again.
So, the next time you find yourself brave enough to venture out into the dark woods of Sleepy Hollow, and you were unlucky enough to be caught up in the malignant white fog thick enough to grab and entrap you itself, the moment you hear the thunderous sound of hoof beats and the shrieking whinny of a frenzied horse, know that the Headless Horseman is coming for you… and he will take your head.
… the end :3
