"Horsemaning" is an Internet meme that mimics a fake beheading in photographs. The origins are believed to be in the 1920s when people would imitate the Headless Horseman, a character from the "The Legend of Sleepy Hallow."
Urban legend has it that a 1920s photograph of two children horsemaning was recently found at a garage sale and uploaded onto the Internet, thus kicking off the resurgence of the fad. The trend has made its round on Facebook, blogs and BuzzFeed. Even a couple of celebrities have taken the plunge.
