Something weird and terrifying was going on in Arizona in the late 1800’s. People in the South East of the state were claiming to have seen a demonic beast stalking the lands. When asked to describe what they saw they claimed it was a huge red creature with a rider on top that looked like the devil. Thus began the legend of the “Red Ghost,” a nightmarish monster that haunted the people in the area.
Numerous sightings were reported around 1883, with the first being an account of two women in Eagle Creek who had been home alone while the men of the family were away.
