The Horse Head myth is a Northwestern urban myth/legend. This myth is not very common at all, information on where it came from is unknown not many people have heard of it, the story originates back in the early 50's when an unknown Nazi Doctor migrated to the coast of the Northwest, and stole the horses of the local farmers and Native American Reservations, and kidnapped drifters, homeless and criminals. Obsessed with the Greek Mythological creature The Centaur, he attempted to conjoin the two beings together as if to create his own. He did so in a variety of ways, two of which were, replacing the human legs with the horse legs and most horrific was the replacement of heads, human to horse and horse to human. Some say a few experiments actually took, mostly the leg experiments worked, but none lived long enough to get up and walk, the wounds started to heal but contracted gangrene, thus causing the "Guinea Pig" to die. There was in fact another that supposedly took and worked very well, the head transfer experiments. It's been said that when the Doctor realized, at what he had accomplished he cared for his "creation" as his own child, but having the brain of a horse and the body of a man, began to get out of control. The doctor had to keep it somewhere, he built a sturdy shed and kept it out there. Over the years it was living out there the doctor tried teaching it, it learned to walk upright, use its' hands, like a human, and of course speech was impossible due to the lack of vocal cords, but it was able to make noises, and because of the intelligence of the horse it was able to learn relatively quick, but still had the mentality of a mentally challenged child. One day while cleaning it, he nicked one of the ears, and made it very angry, resulting in the gruesome death of the doctor; His body was found weeks after, multiple stab wounds and ultimately bite marks on the face and neck. Still to this day no one has found a body to the creation from the Doctor, some say it went back to the house where it was created, in the backwoods of the Northwest, others say that it roams the woods alone, and that you can find bare foot prints, that of a human, where its pained whines where previously heard the day before. Those who say they have seen describe it as being 6 feet tall, carrying some kind of object about 12-inches long, no one really knows what happened to it, only a hand full of people have claimed to see it, less have heard of the story.
