The horseman is not identified in Washington Irving's Legend of Sleepy Hollow. In he prequel, A Hollow Sleep by Chris Ebert, he is identified as Heinrich Luneberg. An alternative interpretation would be that since it is implied Brom Bones may have dressed up as the Horseman to frighten Ichabod Crane, that could his 'identity.
The headless horseman is typically depicted as a ghostly figure and as such, does not have physical needs like eating. In folklore, the headless horseman is usually associated with seeking revenge or haunting those who cross his path, rather than eating.
Although both characters appear in stories written by the American author Washington Irving, they are two separate stories. The headless horseman appeared in the 'Legend of Sleepy Hollow', while Rip Van Winkle starred in the story 'Rip Van Winkle'. The headless horseman is said to be the ghost of a Hessian soldier. The story implies that the 'ghost' is actually Bram Bones, Ichabod Cranes (the main character of Sleepy Hollow) rival for the affection of Katrina Van Tassel, the love interest.
