If you remember the two variations of the dulahan, one on horseback and one atop a carriage, then you know we've only covered half the story. Nearly as common as headless horsemen are stories of phantom coaches, or coaches of death. In some legends, simply encountering the headless coachman is enough to end your days in the land of the living.
