The Wild Hunt
An endless horde of spectral riders sweep the skies, claiming souls in a storm of fury
Lore
The Wild Hunt is a terrifying spectral procession from European folklore, said to thunder across the night skies during storms and winter darkness. Led by ghostly riders, gods, or cursed kings depending on the legend, the Hunt swept through forests and mountains with howling hounds and phantom horses in pursuit of lost souls. Witnessing the Hunt was believed to foretell death, war, or catastrophe. Across countless regional traditions, the sound of distant horns and galloping hooves became a chilling omen carried upon the wind.
