The Horses of Death

Post by DarKnyht »

The Londonist has a discussion in their Saturday Strangeness feature today talking about Ghost Horses. In it the author debates the logic behind such a creature.

I've often been intrigued by reports of phantom animals, especially horses when they are seen to be leading a carriage through some misty backroad of a night. What perplexes me most is the fact that if inanimate objects have no souls, then why should the coach appear alongside the horses? And, if the horses never died together or with the coach, then why should they appear coupled in the ethereal void? Have there ever been sightings of a stagecoacch drawn by nothing, or spectral horses drawing an invisible carriage? It seems not.

There was a mother and daughter in Ireland who for years reported the sounds of a rickety old coach passing by their house every night accompanied by beautiful music.

Nobody ever saw the coach.

The Black Coach, the coach of the dead.
