The Haunt event on Roblox is finally over. If you’ve played, you’ll know that the Headless Horseman statue at the back of the mansion was very much the theme. From October 30, 2024, players of The Haunt could challenge the boss of the event. Find out how to find the Headless Horseman and how to defeat him right here!
Headless Horseman Location in The Haunt on Roblox
To find the Headless Horseman for the event’s boss fight, you’ll need to go to the back of the mansion and go to the other side of his statue.
You will see a swirling orange and black portal that you can interact with. Go ahead and do so, and you’ll be transported to a new area.
When you’re there, if you look up and slightly to the right, you’ll see a house with black smoke coming from it.
You have to walk along the path and reach the house to find where the Headless Horseman is.
Go through the bottom floor of the house, and down the broken path to reach the boss battle area.
If there is an orange barrier around the area, there is already a battle in progress and you will have to wait your turn to fight Horatio Axbury, the boss of The Haunt.
How to Beat the Headless Horseman in The Haunt on Roblox
There is a 30-second timeout for additional players to enter the circle between rounds. When the battle begins, five mannequins will rise from the ground in the middle of the small, glowing circles.
The only way to harm Horatio Axbury is to dress the mannequins and complete different outfits.
Each mannequin must be dressed in three clothes and accessories. That’s three pieces in total, not three of each.
You know how the whole premise of The Haunt was a costume contest with five categories? It’s the same for the boss fight. It is five categories of clothes and five mannequins to dress. You can only have one type of clothing on one of the mannequins at a time.
So, if you pick up items that say they are “Beautiful” (seen at the bottom of your screen), you would use those to dress one mannequin in a beautiful style. The cute clothes include sweatshirts, pajama bottoms, mugs and even a bunny hoodie.
There are also clothing and accessories that are branded Scary, Orange, Villain and Creature. One category of clothing to match each of the categories The Haunt’s costume contests.
The Cute and Orange outfits are the easiest to put together, but the other three categories share a color palette and you’ll need to pay more attention to your inventory at the bottom of your screen.
You can only collect one item from a chest at a time, and you can only carry one item at a time. There is a lot of back and forth.
Below are some of the outfits I’ve helped put together in different matches so you can get a glimpse when you try this yourself. It is important to know this for players participating in the boss fight each mannequin adopts a pose for each category. These poses are detailed along with the screenshots I collected.
Creature Costumes
The mannequin wearing Creature costume pieces will lean forward slightly, but not as much as the Scary mannequin does. Their hands will be about hip height, and one leg will be slightly behind the other.
Nice Costumes
The mannequin wearing a nice suit will always stand on one leg with one arm cheerfully in the air. They are the most recognizable pose, and that makes it very easy to put together any beautiful outfit.
Villain Costumes
The villain mannequin stands as if it has one of its “hands” in its pocket. They look somewhat menacing, and will usually have a mask as part of their costume.
Orange Suits
The mannequin wearing the Orange suit has a more neutral stance. They look like a fashion mannequin, often donning orange glasses or an orange flower crown along with their outfit.
Scary Costumes
The Scary mannequin has the stereotypical “roar!” stance, with both arms raised and the body poised in a way that they just jumped out from behind something to scare you.
Reward for the Boss Battle in The Haunt on Roblox
You only need to win once to get the reward for the event’s boss fight. The reward is the “Evil Pumpkin and Friendly Skeleton”, which is a floating pumpkin and skull accessory that your Roblox avatar can wear. They are supposed to act as extra “heads” – probably a play on the fact that you just hit the headless Horseman
