The Headless Horseman is a Boss that has a chance of replacing any other Horsemen Isaac could meet.
Behavior
The Headless Horseman consists of two entities: The head and the body. The 2 will keep attacking Isaac independently as soon as combat starts.
Head
- The head has 100 HP.
- The head shoots 3 bullets in a spread at Isaac.
- The head charges across the screen 3 times. It will do this attack more often if Isaac is to its left or right.
Body
- The body has 60 HP.
- The body's amount of HP scales based on the floor Isaac is on, maxing out at 300 HP. This scaling does not apply for the head.
- The body continuously shoots explosive shots at Isaac.
- Shots leave behind a damaging puddle of Red creep.
- This behavior is similar to Pestilence's 2nd stage, except without his fly spawning ability.
