Baltus walks into the room with Lady Van Tassel and Crane presents his credentials to Baltus. A horsemen shouts that the Headless Horsemen has killed again and at the site of the body, Baltus tells Theodore to get a cart to carry away the body while Doctor Lancaster, Reverend Steenwyck, Magistrate Philipse, Brom, Glenn, Rifleman and Van Ripper stand nearby. Crane and Killian arrive and Crane uses scientific techniques to figure out how the Horseman killed Jonathan Masbath. While Crane is riding to the Van Tassel home, he is chased by someone who seemingly has no head and who throws a flaming pumpkin at him. The rider gallops away and Brom reveals himself to be the rider and laughs with Glenn and another friend. A few nights later, Brom is with Theodore and Glenn and tells them to split up and search different areas. Brom hears Thomas Killian scream and runs to Killian's house. He sees the Horseman leaving with a sack of heads and shoots him, knocking the Horseman off of his horse. Brom attacks the Horseman who fights back but also continues on his way. Crane helps Brom attack the Horseman and convinces Brom to retreat. As they are crossing a bridge, the Horseman attacks them and stabs Crane in the upper chest and cuts Brom in half.
