The Headless Horseman has lost his head...again. It's Valentine's Day in the realm between the living world and the afterlife where Hesse's bone manor resides but everything is not coming up roses for the Horseman and his witchy paramour. When Arletta Harrington uncovered her lover Hesse's skull in a hidden mass grave and returned it to him on Halloween the two thought all was well in their world of the dead. But the God of Death is angry, he doesn't want a living witch in this realm and he especially doesn't want his harbinger of death to be sans his flaming top. Death rules his world with an iron fist and this witch and Hessian are stirring up to much change for his liking. Death presents the two lovers with a Hesse can keep Arletta or he can keep his head. Set after the events of Riding The Headless Horseman and Smashing Pumpkins but before Getting With The Ghoul.
