Halloween Horsemen of the Yorkshire Apocalypse

Ghost rider

This Halloween horse in Bingley is getting ready to meet one of the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse; Pestilence, War, Famine, or Death.  Alongside such an array of potential problems Trick or Treat pales into insignificance.

Apocalyptic Biblical References

  1. Revelation 6:2, “I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.”
  2. Revelation 6:4, “Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword.”
  3. Revelation 6:5-6, “…and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, ‘A quart of wheat for a day’s wages, and three quarts of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!”
  4. Revelation 6:8, “I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.”

Long may Yorkshire and Yorkshire folk avoid such apocalyptic events.
