Tumbleweed Church









Tumbleweed is the very first site of some of the first ever Myths and Legends of the Red Dead franchise, and is a hotspot for many myths and legends. Newspaper articles throughout the game mention hauntings occurring in Tumbleweed at several points during the story. It is also good to note the bats that take off flying around the abandoned town randomly.

Many rumors surround both the church and mansion of Tumbleweed.

The Church is said to be haunted by the devil himself. The famous inscription on the alter of the Church: “The Devil has got into that beast” was originally believed by players to be a cheat code. However, upon entering the code, it registers as invalid. This has led many to believe the inscription is connected to the rumors of ghost sightings within the church. However, after thorough research, I have discovered that Rockstar intended for ”The Devil Has Got Into That Beast” to be a cheat code, but it was never properly implemented into the game. It would’ve had something to do with your horse going nuts. Legend has it that if you throw fire bottles at the alter, satan himself will appear. Players have also spotted faces in the windows and heard demonic growling outside.



I have discovered that the graves outside the church can be marked manually in Deadeye. I’m not sure if this is significant to this case.
