About this listen

In this episode of the Mid-Week Mysteries podcast, Taura explores the eerie legend of El Muerto or the Headless Horseman of South Texas. The narrative delves into the rugged landscapes of the Texan frontier and a notorious outlaw named Vidal, who, after meeting his end at the hands of the Texas Rangers, found infamy in death as his decapitated body was put on gruesome display strapped to a horse. Taura uncovers how the haunting specter of El Muerto, a headless horseman, is said to still roam the disputed borderlands, with accounts of sightings persisting into the 21st century, linking this southwestern legend securely with the cultural narratives of the region.
