- Whether your Arthur Morgan or John Marston - High honor or Low Honor. The Night Folk are one of if not the scariest groups in Red Dead Redemption 2. In this video I'm going to show you 10 or more INSANE details about the nite folk in rdr2. Really contributes to the story, culture and mystery of the Nwa Bayou.
The best way to support me is to watch my stupid video all the way to the end if you can. - Thanks!

That pronunciation of Creole was... something alright.
Damn I just realized this. f
That’s what made me stay! Loved this cover of the Nightfolk. You even showed the sigils ahhh truly dark stuff!
One thing that I like about the bayou is that both arthur and john will sometimes look around their surroundings on foot, it's a pretty cool detail since even they can be scared of the nightfolk
they do that anyways
I've noticed this too. Arthur seems nervous and looks around way more than normal if you're riding through the bayou at night
They do it everywhere
Officially my SCARIEST Night Folk encounter.
There's a Legendary Bounty Mission on RDO, the target I think is Phillip Carlier or something like that. The story is after committing his crime he went underground in Bayou Nwa for years, and living life away from society has done a toll on his mind.
What's scary is this fucker not only drugs you before trying to kill you when the mission starts, but when you survive that ordeal you're literally left in the middle of the swamp with absolutely no clue as to where to go. Meanwhile the target has gone into complete hiding. And to make matters worse, he has terribly ill-natured alligators protecting him, and they'll immediately target you if you're simply in the same vicinity.
But that's just the icing on the cake; this bounty mission is the only known time in RDO where you legitimately encounter Night Folk. Their lack of vocal communication makes them the perfect ambush predators. As I'm patrolling the Bayou for the bounty target, it's too deathly silent. I'm watching for incoming gators and human silhouettes in the trees. But for long minutes nothing happens.
And that's when I heard it.
The faintest sound of a knife being pulled out of its sheath. Had it been just a mite fainter, I wouldn't have heard it, and it would've been instant death. But it was just loud enough to hear, and I did the quickest 180° spin before maiming the fucker with a tomahawk. I've decided I'm making all the noise at that point, because that's when all of the shadows in the trees started moving. All hell had broken loose at that one moment.
There’s something TERRIBLY wrong with these Night Folk, and this is the only video I’ve seen that digs as deep as I feared it goes. And I fear the origins of these Night Folk are even worse than that. A group of mutes doesn’t just get lost in the wild and go insane. There has to be something much darker and much more evil to it. I honestly strongly agree with the possibility that rituals were conducted in the swamp, some of which went horribly wrong and that’s disrupting the spiritual balance in the region, punishing those responsible by taking their humanity.
Or are they actual zombies…? Haitian and West African folklore takes the concept of zombies VERY seriously. And the Red Dead universe does not hold back regarding the racist history of the United States. Zombies by definition don’t have to be shambling and brain dead. In lots of other media zombies are portrayed as fast, strong, agile, and even intelligent. Maybe that’s the case with the Night Folk if they really are zombies.
Either way, unlike Skinners and Murfrees, the Night Folk are something FAR worse than a murder gang. Probably something far worse than a cult in general. But maybe this is an area where Rockstar is playing the “some mysteries are best left unsolved” game. We might not ever know…
Man the night folks are the only people that makes me check my time on rdr2
I hated having to travel through the bayou. Alligator traps everywhere
The night folk is one of the reasons i hate the swamps
They arent the reason I hate the swamp. I actually love seeing them because I love a good melee only fight in the game and they are pretty durable so I dont knock em out in just a couple punches. The things that really keep me put of the swamps are the fucking gators 😢
@@jamall7003 true the reason I hate them is because they scare the hell out of me
@@jamall7003don’t the nite folk one hit kill you if they manage to melee you with their knives?
@@notting2640 yurp and that's what made it so fun! ☺️
I appreciate how the game director of rockstar was like, hey let’s throw in some Haitian voodoo, but don’t make it obvious.
Usually when it starts getting dark I just make sure I'm like around Rhodes or take my chances near Van Horn instead lol
That one random encounter where you lose your horse and have to chase it through the swamp, terrifying
Was just thinking yesterday that I was excited to see more rdr2 content. Wish granted I suppose!
Hope you enjoyed it! I appreciate the comment
2:17 I get how this shot was supposed to be dramatic and scary, but it was pretty damn funny hearing that goofy "tink" noise when the Night Folk got pistol-whipped
This video better get more recognition soon, you deserve it.
Bro I am a huge fan of RDR2 and play it every day for years now and I freaking love your content
Peace from Berlin Germany
I hunt the night, folk
great video as always man!
They don’t hunt me I hunt them
This video is so good to listen to ❤
Thank you so much! I appreciate it
Me waiting patiently for the next upload 😳👉🏼👈🏼
You should group your rdr2 videos into a playlist
I will do that tomorrow morning I don’t think I can do that in the app but if I can I will. Thanks for the idea
I feel kinda bad for the poor people in the bayou that can't afford a way to move out of the swamp
Ohhh, they think that darkness is their ally..... but they merely adopted the dark. I was born in it.... molded by it..... 😁🖤
One of them night folk was armed 4:25
nice
Thanks!
How do you trigger that mission?
I love and hate the Night Folk. I think they’re voodou zombies.
Bro said mobs lol
Lmfao I am an Azeroth kid at heart
lesgooo

you don't really add anything, you explain what everybody who's played already knows
This is true. Realized it after posting. Thank you for the comment.
sry if that came across wrong, rdr2 has just been around for awhile and there's nothing new anymore
@@landlockedcroat1554 Theres kind of alot, people see things differently, and us whove only recently explored the mysteries and darkness of red dead may need it.
@PremoSaysThings I've played and beaten the story of this game twice and have never encountered them I learned a lot from this video
