Episode 209: The Red Ghost, A Wild West Legend

Welcome to “Episode 209: The Red Ghost”. In Eagle Rock, Arizona 1883, a woman was trampled to death by what was described as a hoofed beast with red hair being ridden by a devilish skeleton cowboy. Decades passed, and more sightings of the fearsome specter were observed throughout Arizona. Some claimed the creature flew, others claimed it trampled all who stood in its way, and still others thought it might be the Devil himself or one of his horsemen, but when the mystery was finally solved in the 1890s, the truth would prove to be stranger than fiction. Join us on this Wild West adventure as we dissect the tall tale of “The Red Ghost”.
