Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 features an expansive landscape that demands considerable travel for various missions. Equine companions prove particularly valuable for traversing these distances, with numerous breeds showcasing distinct characteristics and appearances throughout the game.

Among these steeds lies the Phantom Horse, a rare mount tied to the Brushes with Death expansion. Obtaining it requires completing a multi-stage questline that begins near Kuttenberg’s eastern tavern, the Hole in the Wall. Patrons there share rumors about an executioner seeking assistance.

Approach Heinz, the local executioner, to learn he requires rare components for a special blade—most notably, a spectral horseshoe linked to this ghostly steed. Track the apparition to Grund’s burned forest after nightfall, where interacting with the ephemeral creature progresses your objective. Following quest completion, visit stablemasters to permanently acquire this unique mount.

The Executioner’s Pride mission chain serves as your pathway to this ethereal creature. Begin by interrogating tavern staff about unusual happenings, then follow clues to Heinz’s residence. Upon accepting his request, scout the designated area northwest of Kuttenberg as daylight fades.

Optimal approach timing occurs near midnight, when the Phantom Horse materializes amidst the ash-strewn grove. Successful interaction triggers further narrative developments, eventually permitting acquisition through standard stable services. Note that the creature’s translucent appearance during initial encounters contrasts with its corporeal form during ownership.
