Summary

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”.

0:42.5	Hey, it's your favorite, anxious podcast host, Allie here, and I'm going to share a quick tale of woe with you all.
0:50.1	All right, here's the story.
0:51.2	A couple months ago, I'm sitting in my car on my lunch break, eating a sesame ball from Whole Foods. Don't think anything of it. Throw all my trash away. Go back to work. A couple weeks later, it just so happened that I had to go into my dentist for my cleaning. And as they're poking around in there, they're like, hey, did you know that a pie-shaped wedge of your back molar is missing. Do you know how alarming that is to just be
1:28.2	told that you're missing part of your tooth and you had no idea? And so I'm talking to her and I'm

1:38.0	tooth for a really long time actually because you've had this slowly growing crack because
