Sir Patrick Delaney-Podmore, the Headless Hunt's rowdy leader, crashes the Halloween feast by blowing his horn and leading his headless horsemen in a spectral charge through Hogwarts' Great Hall. His dramatic entrance provides comic relief amid whispers of the Chamber of Secrets. As a knightly ghost, he represents the school's boisterous afterlife, briefly stealing the spotlight from the mounting petrification mystery.

Description

A large, burly ghost in translucent medieval armor, headless with a thick-bearded head cradled confidently under one arm. Fierce eyes gleam from the detached face, mouth open in a horn-blowing roar. His massive frame charges spectrally, hunting horn raised high, exuding rowdy warrior energy with a faint otherworldly glow.
