The Horseless Headless Horsemann's Head is a headwear item wearable by all classes. It is the head of the eponymous Horseless Headless Horsemann, complete with tree and eerie glowing inside.

This hat is awarded to players who have earned the Sleepy Holl0wnd achievement, by contributing to the death of the Horseless Headless Horsemann that spawned in Mann Manor. It was available during the Halloween events only.

While wearing this hat, the player is immune to the Horseless Headless Horsemann's "Boo" taunt, but not the fright from the ghost on Harvest.

This hat can only be worn around Halloween, so it does not appear in gameplay. However, it can be equipped in the headgear loadout slot, and in the character preview it shows the player wearing the hat.

Trivia

  • Like several other Halloween hats, the Horseless Headless Horsemann's Head does not have a randomly selected level; its level is always 31 because Halloween is October 31st.
