There's all sorts of weird and creepy things to find in the open world of Red Dead Redemption 2. Along with UFOs and vampires, there is also a man-made mutant that can be found in an abandoned house, and it's one of the most disturbing things players will come across in the game.
West of the Van Horn Trading Post in Red Dead Redemption 2 is the abandoned house in question. Unfortunately, Arthur can't just barge through the front door, but rather, he has to climb through the window by using a cart. Once players manage to climb through the window, they will find the mutant, which some fans have noted kind of looks like Manbearpig of South Park fame.
Here is the exact location of the abandoned mutant house in Red Dead Redemption 2:
The creepy thing about the mutant in Red Dead Redemption 2 is its potential origin story. The creature is a man-made beast, and it's clear that something absolutely horrific took place in the abandoned house. Players can read a letter in the room to learn more, as well as check out some of the other freaky experiments that were conducted.
The mutant creature is definitely one of the most disturbing things players can find in Red Dead Redemption 2, but it's not the only time the game features horror elements. In fact, Red Dead Redemption 2 has a number of horror-themed easter eggs and missions, including the aforementioned UFOs and vampires, as well as late-night encounters with a vicious hillbilly group known as the Night Folk.
If all that weren't enough, there's also a serial killer loose in the Wild West. Players first catch wind of this serial killer after finding a path of severed body parts, which leads to a decapitated head with a note inside. Players can then use the note to find yet another head and clue that eventually lead to the serial killer's location as part of some twisted treasure hunt.
It's possible that the huge world of Red Dead Redemption 2 is hiding even more creepy secrets, and it will be interesting to see if anything else comes to light in the coming weeks.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is out now for PS4 and Xbox One.
