The Headless Horseman is the most famous and most expensive regular bundle on Roblox. Players want the headless look, but the price and limited availability make it confusing. This guide answers how much Headless costs, when it is sold, how to get it and how to avoid the many fake offers.
Short answer
The Headless Horseman bundle costs 31,000 Robux. At the standard rate of about 1.25 US cents per Robux, that is roughly 387 dollars. It is sold in the Avatar Shop only for a limited time around Halloween, and every claim of a free Headless is a scam.
Key facts at a glance
- Price: 31,000 Robux, a number that nods to Halloween on October 31.
- Real-money cost: about 387 US dollars at the base Robux rate, slightly less with bigger Robux packs.
- Availability: normally October through early November.
- 2026 window: reports said the bundle returned on October 1, 2026 at the same price, so by early November it has usually left the shop.
- Discount: Roblox Plus members can get about 10 percent off, or around 20 percent after several consecutive months, according to 2026 guides.
- Free? No. Free offers are scams.
How much is Headless in Robux and dollars?
At full price the bundle is 31,000 Robux. Using the standard exchange rate of one Robux to 1.25 cents, that works out to about 387.50 dollars. Buying the largest Robux packs lowers the real cost slightly, because the rate improves to about one cent per Robux at the top tier, but the total is still very high. Guides for 2026 also list discounted prices of around 27,900 Robux with a 10 percent membership discount and about 24,800 Robux with a 20 percent discount.
When does Headless come back?
The bundle is a seasonal item. It has returned in October each year, usually on or near the first of the month, and leaves around the start of November. Because dates are decided by Roblox, always check the live Avatar Shop. If you are reading this in November and cannot find it, the sale window has probably ended.
How to get Headless on Roblox
- Wait for the sale window and check the Avatar Shop.
- Search for Headless Horseman or open the bundle page.
- Make sure your Robux balance covers the price shown.
- Click Buy and confirm.
- Equip it from your avatar editor.
There is no quest, badge or in-game grind that gives you the bundle. You purchase it from the marketplace.
Can you get Headless cheaper?
- Roblox Plus discount: a membership can reduce the price during the sale window, according to 2026 guides. Check the current terms before subscribing, since membership names and perks have changed.
- Robux sales: occasionally Roblox offers bonus Robux promotions. These lower the real-world cost, not the Robux price.
- Look-alike items: some creators sell cheap heads and accessories that give a similar look for far less. They are not the real bundle but may satisfy the style.
The 2026 head policy change
Roblox announced a new head policy on January 30, 2026. Older classic heads that did not comply left the Marketplace in March 2026, and creators had until June 15, 2026 to update older heads. Reports say the rollout caused problems for some Headless owners, so check how the item behaves with your avatar after major updates.
Beware of scams
The most searched scam is the so-called free Headless glitch. No such glitch exists. Never enter your password on a site that promises free Robux or free Headless, never share your login or cookie, and never pay a stranger outside Roblox. Anything that says you can get Headless for free is a trap. Our guide to getting verified and account safety covers more.
Is Headless worth it?
That depends on your budget and goals. For many players it is a status symbol rather than a necessity. If you are saving Robux, consider whether another item or game purchase gives better value. For children, parents should set spending limits.
Can Headless be traded?
Trading rules for bundles and limited items change, and eligibility depends on the item and your account. Check Roblox official trading information before you plan around resale.
Headless Horseman history
The Headless Horseman has been a Halloween tradition on Roblox for many years. Early on it was sold for a lower price, with one source recalling 20,000 Robux at first, but for years it has carried the 31,000 Robux price tag, a nod to October 31. Memorial Day sales in 2015 and 2016 briefly lowered it to 24,800 Robux. Its yearly return, high price and rarity made it a status symbol among players.
Step-by-step: saving for Headless
- Set a target date. Count how many weeks remain before next October.
- Calculate your Robux goal. 31,000 at full price, less if you have a discount.
- Earn through legitimate means. Creators can earn from passes and items, and some players budget Robux gifts or purchases with a parent.
- Avoid shortcuts. Any site promising free Robux or free items is a scam.
- Check your account. Make sure two-step verification is on so nobody can take your Robux.
Questions parents ask about Headless
Parents often ask whether to buy it as a gift. The price is high, so treat it as a major purchase. Set a monthly spending limit, check the bundle in the Avatar Shop together and explain that the item is purely cosmetic. If your child is under 16, also review whether the account type, such as Roblox Select, affects shopping features.
Similar looks for less
If you want a spooky or headless style without the price, search the Avatar Shop for dynamic heads, hood and cape items, horror-themed accessories and Halloween bundles. Many cost a few hundred Robux or less and let you build a creative look. Remember that look-alike items are not the official bundle.
What to do if the sale already ended
If you missed the October window, you cannot buy the bundle until Roblox brings it back. Do not trust sellers offering it outside Roblox. Plan ahead, follow Roblox official announcements and keep your Robux ready for next year.
