Got this quest from Supervisora de huérfanos Nani outside Entrañas. I'm not sure this is because i play forsaken, because another post stated you get it from Calia Menethil in Orgrimmar and Alliance should get it from Matron Mother Seacole by the gates of Ciudad de Ventormenta.

If you can't see him, try going to Zidormi and changing back to before the latest war. This was the only way I could see him and finish the questline.

Well, I feel dumb lol. Did the short Ghostly Message chain, entered the dungeon finder like it stated and killed Headless Horseman, then left instance group like usual and spent ages trying to find the turn in. Finally went back in the dungeon, killed HH again, and there they were, Thomas and his ghostly wife standing there in the dungeon with a big yellow question mark. FYI, after the turn in to Thomas, he says to go back to the Matron again.

Well, since none of these comments were in any way actually helpful, let me say this - you find Thomas near Venomweb Vale, there will be a quest marker on the map. You do NOT enter the dungeon until the final quest in the chain.

SO MANY SPOILERS!

==================

DO NOT GO TO Orgrimmar; you will NOT find the beginning of the chain there. No matter how much your priestess glows (Sorry, Callia M but it's true). Alliance, you have to start outside the gates of SW. Alas, it's easier to do this as Horde.

After getting the quest start from the "Orphan Matron" in the corner in the courtyard of UC at 62.43, 66.52 follow the path to 81.24, 44.53 on the Trisfal map and you'll find "Sir Thomas" along the side of the path as you're heading North towards the monastery. Pass the ghosts of people until you get to the branching signpost at 81.29, 39.60 where you'll find the "Fearful Crusader." After you click on him, a "Shade of Fear" will appear. Fight it and follow the quest "Shades of Scarlet" along the path.

"Dathrohan" awaits you and you'll click on him to confront him. He's at 82.49, 36.41. The "Shade of Deception" will appear for another glorious battle. So might a Scarlet scout NPC so watch for the add. The scout isn't part of the quest; he's just an existing mob that wanders too close.

At 82.68, 33.92 you'll find "Suzannah" to click on, but you'll find mobs and the "Shade of Guilt". I also was attacked by two Scarlet npcs that were just lurking around to pounce people on their way to the dungeons so you might end up with 3 enemies. Just watch your health.

At 82.39, 32.59 turn in the "Shades of Scarlet" quest with "Sir Thomas.".

The next quest is "No Laughing Matter." He'll ask you to investigate the fountain. It's behind the monastery. As you come up to the fountain, you'll find a purple pink sphere at 83.32, 30.11. After you engage, you'll be at 83.44, 30.24 and be face to face with "Jerome Hayton" whom you'll watch in dismay; and be entreated by Suzannah" to find 3 foci stones and destroy them. They'll look the same as the purple pink sphere.

The first is at 84.60, 27.76. Click, and then being careful to watch for more wandering Scarlet NPCs, find the second along the cliff in the hills beyond the Cypress like trees at 80.78, 29.03. You'll get a "Tortured Shade" when you click these three foci. "Suzannah" keeps up a commentary. The third is snuggled against the monastery where you picked up the original pre-fountain quest at 82.08, 33.21. Return to Thomas and the Lunatic "Jerome". Watch the events that occur next and then go comfort "Suzannah."

You'll now pick up the "The Headless Horseman Returned" quest. Use group finder to do what "Suzannah" asks you to do with a few friends to help. The queues aren't too bad this year (2025).

While you wait, you can look at the Horseman's loot tables. He drops Arfas, but he also has two horse mounts now. One was added in 2025 that has a more intense green around the hooves. You only get it 1x daily with the first character you use. It doesn't seem to matter if you use the wicker men or not. Arfas and the classic horse mount can be ran more than once a day, but only have a drop chance once per character so if you have 24 characters, you run each through and then have 24 chances--from what I'm hearing from other people that have grinded (ground?) for the drops. There's also 9 pieces of cosmetic armor and some rings, a sword, and two helms. You can run the dungeon with 9 alts to get all nine pieces in two hours of real time. It's a cake walk there because you are guaranteed a piece of the set with every run--everything else is RNG. Good luck. They say there's BLP but I'm not sure. I've tried for the 2025 mount this entire holiday and haven't had it drop yet, but I've seen some streamers get it their first day on their first run. Fate I guess.

Remember, should you wait around the monastery you have a chance to run into the wandering NPCs. Don't forget the burning the wickerman buff you can pick up in the courtyard at UC that lasts for two hours.

Once you have ran the dungeon and beaten the "Horseman", "Sir Thomas" appears again and you can turn in the quest. BE CAREFUL. Once you leave the instance, you CANNOT return. So many sure you turn in the quest. "Sir Thomas" will give you the quest "The Tale of Sir Thomas" to turn into the Orphan Matron with a tome he hands you.

I especially recommend being in the UC courtyard around 3am. You get Sylvanas' speech which is heart stirring. (Genn does the Alliance speech, but I like the Horde's feel for this quest best. The steps don't change for either faction though, just the origin of the Matron)

Afterthought:

For some backstory on the classic "Horseman", there's a video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L31aWqmeEvc The Lore: The Headless Horseman & Hallow's End (World of Warcraft Lore)

If you play Classic? Look for an abandoned tombstone as you enter the graveyard, go forward to the T and it's on your right leaning against the building wall. It's the abandoned tombstone of the unnamed "Horseman" that's discarded because of the sheer horrible deeds he's committed. This isn't wide spread knowledge though and you have to run across the precise video to learn about it. There are other lore videos on YT if you're interested you'll find in a general search.

And for more flavor, I recommend these two videos. May Hayven RIP.
