🎃 **Halloween Special! ** Bring four headless horsemen from different legends into your world of Red Dead Redemption 2.

✨ Mod content

This mod adds four unique Headless Horseman costumes to the game, inspired by folklore from across America, and includes bonus skins.

🧟 The Legend of the Four Knights

**Eastern Knight**

During the Revolutionary War, a Hessian mercenary employed by the British army had his head blown off by a cannonball during the battle and was buried in an unmarked grave in Westchester County, New York. Nearly 15 years later, he returned from the grave and wandered around the town of Sleepy Hollow, looking for his lost head and taking other people's...

**Western Knight**

In New Austin in the 1870s, there was a gunslinger known for his trusty LeMat revolver. In 1876, he was falsely accused of cheating during a winning streak in gambling and was beheaded. After he died unjustly, he was "reborn" and used the revolver loaded with shotgun to blow off the heads of everyone who killed him. Today, he still roams the area, killing anyone who dares challenge him or even look him in the eye.

**Southern Knights**

In southern Texas in the mid-19th century, there was a Mexican horse thief named Vidal. One day, he makes the big mistake of stealing a Texas Ranger's horse. After being captured, his head was beheaded and his body was tied to a horse as a warning to others. Locals still claim to see his ghost riding around the state and have given him a new name - "**El Muerto**" (The Dead).

**Knights of the North**

Witnesses reported seeing a headless figure in armor wandering on horseback in Ambarino and northern New Hanover. Local law enforcement has so far been unable to locate him and civilians are advised to stay away. There is currently a reward of **15 USD** for information on his whereabouts and **50 USD** for his capture (dead or alive).

🎁 Extra rewards

  • **Headless Thompson Gunslinger Roland**: Inspired by the song of the same name by Warren Zevon.
  • **Western Knight Second Variant**: Designed specifically for the player model (Arthur).

📥 Installation and use

  • Place the files into the saved outfits folder in RampageFiles.
  • In game, switch the model to `mp_male`.
  • Remove all garment components and apply the corresponding set.
  • **Exception**: The second variant of the Western Knight (`west v2`) uses Arthur's model, no need to switch.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
