On a Pale Horse

On a Pale Horse is the last story mission in the Undead Nightmare DLC.

The mission begins after the last mission given by Mother Superior is completed. Marston will jump on his horse on his own, and once you gain control, a song starts playing (titled "Bad Voodoo" by the band The Kreeps). This song plays as you ride to Escalera. Once there you encounter a woman crying and she points you to Reyes' location. You go inside the mansion and a zombified Reyes is attacking the girl you have seen throughout your missions. John points out the familiarity while the girl proceeds to tell you why the dead have risen and only so much time is left before it can't be fixed. She opens a case containing a mask. John grabs it and the girl directs you to a cave in the bullfighting ring. You fight your way through a temple while the zombies don't even bother to touch the girl. You make it to the bottom and fight a 2 wave battle of zombies, and then your control ends as you walk up to the altar. The girl tells you her name is Ayauhteotl and John places the mask back onto the altar. He then notices the girl has dissapeared. Her voice tells you you should see your family and a special horse is waiting for you. John returns to his house to find Abigal and Jack perfectly fine. They embrace and the main story ends.

In an epilogue, it is revealed that Seth takes the mask, and the dead rise again. John has since passed on after the events of the main game have taken place. You watch his grave shake as a now undead Marston rises from the grave. An onscreen prompt tells you that Abigal and Jack buried you with a special flask, presumably the Holy Water, and you now come back and walk again with the body of the undead, but the soul of a man. At this point Marston is back in control and Death, the last of The Four Horses of the Apocalypse, is waiting in front of you.

Trivia

 * The song which plays while riding to Escalera is "Bad Voodoo" by The Kreeps. They recorded the song as a non-album track, as in not to be included in any of their albums, just for Undead Nightmare. The song is available on their Facebook page.
