Rider on the Pale Horse: A Harrowing COVID-19 Coma Survival Memoir by Peter Halo

One man’s unforgettable 70-day coma battle with the Wuhan virus reveals faith, visions, and apowerful will to survive.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th May 2025 - Author Peter Halo gives a compelling, first-hand account of his near-death experience after catching the Wuhan virus in early 2021 in ‘Rider on the Pale Horse: My 70 Days in Coma.’ Readers are drawn into the bizarre realm of extended unconsciousness, spiritual awakenings, and the struggle for survival when the chances are tremendously stacked against you in this intensely personal and emotionally charged memoir.

Halo, who was reinfected after a brief hospital recovery and sent back to a correctional facility where he originally contracted SARS-CoV-2, vividly writes about his rapid health decline. His story begins with urgent hospital visits, isolation, and unsettling encounters with other patients facing mortality. What follows is an unforgettable journey—seventy days in a coma—where the boundary between life and death becomes blurred by visions, dreams, and divine encounters.

What makes this memoir stand out is Halo’s unfiltered narrative voice. While unconscious to the physical world, Halo experiences what he describes as spiritual guidance and contact with loved ones—both living and departed—that offer hope and resilience. These dreamlike passages, rich in symbolism and emotion, contrast powerfully with the raw clinical realities of his coma care.

The author’s journey also shines a light on the human side of the global pandemic—its forgotten victims, solitary hospital deaths, and the emotional toll of separation from family and community. Halo dedicates this work not only to his immediate family, who stood vigilantly by him, but also to the millions who didn’t survive their own encounter with the ‘Rider on the Pale Horse.’

‘Rider on the Pale Horse’ inspires readers of survival stories, pandemic narratives, and those looking for motivation in the face of hardship with its gripping fusion of spirituality, medical trauma, and memoir. Additionally, the book adds to the expanding corpus of work that aims to profoundly preserve the human narratives of individuals impacted by COVID-19.

Peter Halo’s memoir is ultimately a story of hope—of waking up, healing, and honoring those who didn’t. It reminds readers of the fragility of life, the strength of faith, and the resilience of the human spirit.
