Solve the case of the Red Dead Redemption 2 serial killer

A guide with the location of all the clues you need on this side mission

Not all missions and events in Red Dead Redemption 2 are delivered automatically when talking to other characters. Some, like the serial killer case , appear naturally and dynamically in the game world, and therefore you won’t have waypoints and other forms of traditional tracking to solve them either. In this guide, we tell you how to solve the whole killer thing.

eye! We warn you that this article contains what some players might find a spoiler . Well, assuming you’re still with us, you can find the first clue (of a total of three) between Strawberry and Wallace, following a trail of limbs down the road until you come across a severed head with a note in its mouth. You need to have that one, and the other two, to form a map that leads you to the killer. Otherwise, it will not appear in the indicated place.

The second track is south of Valentine, between Citadel Rock and Caster’s Ridge. If you follow the road that goes north, you will find a trail of blood that leads to another severed head, and again, a note that you must collect. We still need another clue. Next head southeast of Braithwaite Manor, coincidentally coinciding with the letter S at the end of “Scarlett Meadows” as you open the map. The head of the latest victim is on the trunk of a large tree, along with the final piece.

Ready to put an end to another one of Red Dead Redemption 2’s mysteries? Head to Valentine and head southwest until you reach a place called Lucky’s Cabin. It is not marked as such on the map, but when you get close enough you will see that the area closes to indicate that you have reached the right point.

Finally, find a ruined house in that area. If you have all three pieces of the map in your possession, you can open the floodgates in the ground and enter the killer’s lair. It is easier to locate yourself if you light the lamp. Inside, you’ll be able to pick up a couple of letters and examine a knife stuck in the wall, although after doing so you’ll have to face the scoundrel known as Edward Lowry Jr. Just punch him down and take him tied up to the sheriff . After leaving it on the ground, you will have to kill it because it attacks the authority of the town, and you will be able to collect your brand new, unique and valuable reward: 20 dollars.
