Aberdeen Pig Farm 1st Floor Strange Picture Frame

In the first paragraph, only 'm' is lowercase.

In the second paragraph, the uppercase 'M' replaces the 'H' (though this is not certain), 'm' remains lowercase, and 'R' is omitted.

In the third paragraph, the Greek letter 'Ғ' is added between 'L' and 'M'.

It appears that the 13th letter of the alphabet, 'M', has been replaced by the 8th letter of the alphabet, 'H', possibly as an extension of the 8-13 clock mystery Easter egg.

Then why is only 'm' written in lowercase, why is 'R' omitted, and why is the Greek letter 'Ғ' positioned as the 13th letter?

Is this an Easter egg related to Friday the 13th? And why specifically 'Ғ'? Does it symbolize a dreamcatcher hanging from a tree? The number 8 appears to symbolize the spider mystery. Is the omission of 'R' intended to emphasize 'ROCK STAR'? It is a picture frame that gives you a lot to think about.

Easily my favorite creepy place in RDR2

There is something about this place in RDR2 that is so ominous and dreadful but yet very calm. What do you all think about this place? I know obviously some of you already know where this is and have been here, but for those who don’t, I won’t ruin it and tell you where it is exactly. It came out of nowhere for me one time when I was riding in the night. Just know it’s in east Ambarino. Honestly coming up to this place is creepier than some of the Lemoyne swamp places. Probably because Ambarino feels extremely lonely.

So I'm pretty sure I've worked out the meaning of the feathers and spiderwebs/dreams

Long time listener, first time caller here.

As the title states, I'm almost 100% convinced I've solved the meaning of the 8 swiderwebs and feathers dotted around the map. I've deliberately stated that I've worked out the meaning, because I don't want to shoot myself in the foot and claim that I've solved the whole mystery as there may be more that follows. For me personally though, I think where I've ended it is the natural conclusion. But I am truly happy to be proven wrong of course.

I'm not going to run through the whole process of how we discover the spiderwebs as we're all familiar with them now. I'll just jump to my investigation into all of this:

For the longest time, and like many of you, I was caught up in trying to understand the now ubiquitous NW guitar pole - and like many of you, I was convinced that the image in question wasn't actually a guitar. Even after seeing the original texture pulled from the game files I was convinced it was something else. I was even working on the theory that it might have been a grid reference.

https://www.reddit.com/r/reddeadmysteries/comments/1al9ub9/created_a_100_accurate_gridmap_according_to/

Looking at this one here, I8 (something of a guitar shape when stacked on top of each other) is almost smack bang NW of the pole, and very near spider gorge and countless hours were spent up there scouring for textures and falling under the spell of pareidolia. But, there was nothing to be found. So I returned to the webs themselves, convinced that there was more to be discovered there beyond just creating a geo-positioning map that would lead you to the central web. Because there are far easier ways to draw you from the spider engraving near Cornwall to the main/central web. Why 8? Yes, there are 8 legs on a spider, thus 8 points of contact but still. Why the particular and varied feather placement? Why 5 white feathers and 3 red?

https://preview.redd.it/0bi8ll4cuqug1.jpg?width=956&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=31477cae164a32dad609cc22387ea96240a9f8a2

So I was up by Emerald Station near spiderdream04 when I started to think of the feathers as compass points pointing in a certain direction. Now with a normal compass you don't follow the needle as that points magnetic north, with the opposite end by default pointing south. But for the purposes of the game maybe these feathers were acting in a similar fashion. If the white feather was in the lower left section of the web (or SW if the web was a whole image and not the "bottom half" of a full circle) then I should travel NE as that would be the "red" part of the imaginary needle was pointing. So I did... and I arrived at the grave of Susan Grimshaw.

Now as well as drawing a physical connection I was very interested now because if we start to look into the Native American lore present in the game, as well as a little IRL research, we see the parallels between death, the feathers and the spider mother. Things were making sense. So, naturally and rather excitedly I tried it on another feather... and it didn't work. So I returned to the drawing board. But I liked my idea, and thought it made sense. But it needed tweaking. So instead of acting like a compass, I started to think of the feathers more as markers indicating axis as well as direction. And tried a few variations, implementing different hypothesis. And I've settled on one.

So, as near as I can tell, the 8 spiderwebs (or spiderdreams) are markers pointing you solely in the direction of the character graves located in the game. Feel free to check, because I have double and triple checked the working out here and it holds up.

https://preview.redd.it/7igjpdnorvug1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=05df61536c32e26560e70b05f5453380881be54a

The Core Idea

Each web only shows up in its exact 1-hour nighttime window (the grey/black ones and the 3 red ones). When you stand at the base of said pole and look up, the spot where the feather is hanging tells you a direction — lower strands on the web = north/northwest/northeast, and the slight left/right offset gives you the exact bearing. You just ride straight on your compass in that direction and it lines up with a grave. No guessing, no overlays needed once you know the rule.

How Each Pole Points to Its Grave

Using the feather diagrams everyone already has:

  • spiderdream01 (Ringneck, 5-6 GREY, right/lower-right feather) → northwest straight to grave 1 (Jenny)
  • spiderdream02 (Oil Fields north-central, 3-4 or 5-6 GREY, lower-middle/right) → north (very slightly northwest) to grave 2 (Davey)
  • spiderdream03 (Cornwall Web, 3-4 GREY, lower-middle) → north with a tiny northeast lean to grave 7 (Eagle Flies)
  • spiderdream04 (Emerald Station, 4-5 GREY, right/lower-right) → northeast to grave 8 (Susan)
  • spiderdream05 (Overflow/northern, 2-3 GREY, lower-left) → southeast to graves 5/6 (Hosea & Lenny)
  • spiderdream06 (Scarlett/Southfield south, 2-3 RED, lower-right) → southeast to grave 4 (Kieran)
  • spiderdream07 (Southfield Flats, 4-5 RED, lower-right) → northwest to grave 3 (Sean)
  • spiderdream08 (Saint Denis/southeast, 3-4 RED, lower-right) → northwest to graves 5/6 (Hosea & Lenny)

Why Some Point North and Some South

It's not random. The same lower-half feather position means "north-ish" when you're at a southern or central pole (which is most of them). But when the pole itself is up north (like spiderdream02 or 05 in the Oil Fields/Overflow area), that same lower feather now points the opposite way — south or southeast. Basically the web is a fixed compass rose viewed from below: lower = forward/north from your position, upper would be south but none of the standard webs use upper strands. Pole location on the map flips the actual direction you travel. That's why you get both north and south lines from the same feather logic.

The Basic Rule (Applied to Every Web the Same Way)

When you stand at the base of any spiderdream pole and look up at the web:

  • The position where the feather is attached/hanging acts like an arrowhead or pointer on a compass.
  • The web is always viewed the same way (you're looking upward at it from below).

Lower positions on the web = North / Northwest direction
Upper positions on the web = South / Southwest / Southeast direction (the flip)

Why "Lower = North"?

  • In your in-game view, the lower strands of the web (the ones closer to the ground / closer to you) are treated as the "forward" direction — the direction the pointer is aiming away from you.
  • Therefore:
    • Feather on lower-middle / bottom-centerDue North
    • Feather on lower-right / bottom-rightNorthwest (or north-northwest)
    • Feather on lower-leftNortheast
  • The upper strands are the exact opposite (180° flip):
    • Feather on upper-middleDue South
    • Feather on upper-rightSouthwest
    • Feather on upper-leftSoutheast

Now, along with all the North American mythology working in the backround here you coould get somewhat metaphorical here and think of these characters as people "caught in the web", loyal to Ducth who lost their lives as a result. And as I'm sure you've gathered, there is one grave currently unattended to. A grave belonging to one very "central" character. And, as coincidence would have it, one web left. The central one. So follow the path....

N to pole

W 5 poles

NW (is it a guitar? Again, I thought not but with the theory I'm working on I'm sharpening my blades with Occam's Razor) There is one obvious guitar NW of this pole, and it's in Fort Wallace.

Get into the fort, and find the guitar. Yes, it's not pointing to the tower. But it is very much pointing to the starirs that lead to the tower. So climb the tower. There is literally a second guitar at the top telling you to go higher. Find the birds. Yes, the birds - the ones that have been deliberately placed there. Why 2? I don't know - to symbolize Arthur and John maybe? Because one could be interpreted as a textural glitch, but 2 implies a pattern? Birds of a feather flock together? Look out where the birds are "pointing", and in a straight line (or, as the crow flies) you'll arrive at Arthur's Grave. There's even a bird that spawns there for good measure.

Is this the end of the whole mystery? I don't know. Maybe you follow the bird and it'll lead you to a cave with a jetpack in it. Or a carving that says "not cut content". If I'm right though, I'm a little disappointed. Because the graves were already "known". I was hoping for something fresh, something more but I'll admit I didn't know what I wanted. But maybe I'm wrong and there is more to come. Now that you know, maybe you shoot the feathers in a specific order and then sacdrifice the vampire with the ornate dagger at the burial site during the time frame that the butcher's creek pentagram is active and the undead will rise up and we'll have unlocked Undead Nightmare 2. But if I'm right... well, it was fun while it lasted.

Anyways, thanks for attending my TED talk. Strange Man, if you're reading this make sure you spell my name right. Peace

I need second opinions regarding texture

I'm of the idea that the guitar is not Fort Wallace but the end of the Spider Gorge River. But that's just me. Looking around, I found a shape on the side of the wall (picture 2 & 3). Normally I would discard it as texture. As a matter of fact there are other shapes around that in my opinion are texture (pictures 5-8).

What calls my attention is that the pointy shape is pretty dark (not like the background wall) and also one of the angles of the shape fit perfectly with the Rockstar star. (picture 4).

In this train of thought, the guitar would be related with "rockstar". The rock being the rock in the middle of the guitar. And the next step would be in the stars.

All this post is just to ask if you have seen that specific shape of texture (picture 3) around the map in order to discard this whole thing.

Thanks!

8 tally marks. Next to what I have been saying is, ALSO A SPYDER SYMBOL. It is Abstract. Like every sign you have received thus far.

these are on the porch roof of the house marked on the map, 3rd picture.

the white symbol in the 2nd picture is a different spider symbol that I have tracked to multiple areas of the map.

THE MAP IS THE WEB. UNRAVEL IT...

I have seen many people say the code for the two birds matches the tally marks or initials at Butchers Creek..? Anyone who can data mine, Please compare these to the code in the original marks, initials and 2 birds.

No idea how to do that or if it's even possible. I trust the community on stuff like that. thanks.

"it will take a village" to solve all of the entire mystery.

The Reutlinger Pocket Watch and the Family Dinner Mystery

Recently I made a post about a clock I had discovered at Pleasance House, west of Amarillo. There is a clock sitting on the nightstand and I had noticed that the number 11 had been replaced with the roman numeral for 13. I found this very intriguing because it is very similar to the defect exhibited on the Reutlinger Pocket Watch. This watch has the number 8 replaced with the roman numeral for 13.

In the comments of my post u/Lolo_Loves provided me with the results of an exhaustive investigation that had occurred several years ago. This investigation was helped along by the entire r/reddeadmysteries community. They were able to locate 13 clocks scattered across 11 separate locations on the map. Each clock had the same defect as the clock located in Pleasance House. It was presumed that these clocks were related to the Reutlinger watch, but other than the clocks having different numerals replaced with the number 13, there was no conclusive link.

Today I found a 14th clock and I believe a link between the Reutlinger Pocket Watch and the other 13 clocks.

Earlier I had come across an interesting post about the Reutlinger watch made by u/The_Media_Guy. He had discovered that the watch will actually light up if you attend the Family Dinner event at Beecher's Hope. He reported that the watch behaves very much like a timer, staying on for around 3 minutes. As long as you stay within Beecher's Hope the lights on the watch remain lit.

I found this fascinating, and had recently completed the epilogue so I wanted to give Family Dinner a shot and see what happened. After attending dinner once or twice and running around aimlessly after dinner I realized I needed to form a plan. That is when I started investigating the ranch and found the 14th clock in Jack's room, on his nightstand.

I do not believe it is a coincidence that one of the 14 alarm clocks is located at Beecher's Hope. I believe Family Dinner, the Reutlinger Pocket Watch, and the 14 alarms clocks are all related.

I will now share what I have been able to discover so far and attempt to explain why I feel this way. I am going to break the rest of this post up into sections for easier reading.

The Fourteen Clocks

Each clock resembles an old fashioned alarm clock, and is usually located near a bed or place of rest. As mentioned earlier, on each clock the number 11 has been replaced with the roman numeral for the number 13.

A persistent ticking sound can be heard emanating from many of the clocks. The sound is more reminiscent of a stopwatch rather than an alarm clock. This sound combined with the fact that these are all alarm clocks links this to the Family Dinner timed event involving the Reutlinger Pocket Watch.

Another interesting thing about the alarm clocks is that each one, with only a handful of exceptions, is located near a clock that does not have an unusual 13th roman numeral. The alarm clock located at Chez Porter is no longer available after completing Rob a Homestead (Javier Escuella). I do not know how or if this impacts the Family Dinner mystery.

Here is a list of the location of each alarm clock. I will post screenshots in the comments:

Reed Cottage
Deer Cottage
Pleasance House
Annesburg Gun Smith
Beecher's Hope
The Loft
House in Colter
Taxidermist House
2 in Blackwater General Store
2 in Hill Haven Ranch
Pleasance House
Chez Porter

Family Dinner

At some point in the day Abigail will announce that family dinner is ready. You can come in and start the event at the dinner table inside Beecher's Hope. One thing I found very interesting was a comment made by Abigail at the start of one of the dinners. She said "Aaaannd GO!", very much like what someone would say at the start of a race or timed event. Family Dinner ends once Uncle leaves the table.

After sitting through a number of dinners I started to notice a pattern. Each dinner played out exactly the same during the 3 minutes. Dinner starts, Abigail leaves first, then Jack, etc. Each dinner event happens at around the same time.

I realized that the dinner itself could easily be used as a timer. If you were running around trying to complete multiple actions within Beecher's Hope in under 3 minutes, it would be easy to use the dinner table itself as a sort of timer to tell roughly how much time you have left. "Oh Abigail is still cleaning the table, I still have time."

Here is a list of the actions that happen during Family Dinner:

Family Dinner starts
Abigail leaves table
Jack leaves table
Jack walks out front door
Abigail cleans one side of table
Abigail cleans the other side of the table
Uncle leaves table

After Dinner Timed Event

The event seems to start as soon as you stand up from the table. The event does not trigger if you finish eating and remain seated. I sat there for well over 3 minutes to test this theory out. I believe the time of the event actually varies slightly, but it seems to last around three minutes or slightly more.

The lights on the Reutlinger will stay on as long as you are stay within the fence of Beecher's Hope, with a few exceptions. I ran out of either gate and I was able to travel maybe 30-50ft before the lights on the watch turned off. When I tried to hop over the fence in other locations around the ranch, the lights went off immediately. I believe whatever we are expected to do happens within the ranch.

Chores

I have a strong suspicious that whatever we are expected to do is somehow related to the ranch chores. I recently completed the epilogue, and once you return to Beecher's Hope it is strongly implied that you are now John Marston the rancher and should be taking care of business at the ranch.

It has been reported that Family Dinner even begins early if you complete all the ranch chores. This seems to be the case but I cannot confirm it. At the the start of one dinner Abigail asked me if "Everything had been tended to?" implying she expected the chores to be done.

Jack's Room

Inside Jack's room there is a magnifying glass on his desk. This same magnifying glass is located near the color palette in the Strange Man cabin. I believe it was placed there as a clue in both locations. Inside the Strange Man cabin we were being instructed to look at the paintings and writings on the wall for clues. I believe we are being given the same instructions inside Jack's room. His room is full of all sorts of interesting posters and items. There is an antique globe with a compass built into the base.

Theories

My theory at this time is obviously something needs to occur at Beecher's Hope during the three minutes allotted to us. I think there are most likely multiple tasks that need to be completed during this time.

Three minutes is a fairly long time, and the ranch is not that big. The alarm clocks, stopwatch sounds, and the comments made by Abigail indicate that whatever needs to be completed should not be done at a leisurely pace.

I believe completing the ranch chores prior to dinner is involved, and possibly wearing a specific outfit. I have been wearing the "Rancher" outfit during all my tests.

As far as the 14 other clocks, I think that there may be an an item or clue near each clock that we need to discover. Maybe once all the clues are analyzed together it will point us in the right direction.

I do not think that we need to perform any action at the location of the alarm clocks. I could be wrong, but I feel the mystery would be too complicated and cumbersome to solve if it involved going to so many separate locations to perform a specific action. I could be wrong.

I do not think that the actions taken during the 3 minutes need to happen at a specific time of day. The reason being is that the time that Family Dinner can occur can vary greatly. I believe it is something like between 3:00PM and 8:00PM. If the solution required a specific time to be unlocked this variance in start time would cause a problem.

Thank You

I would like to give a big thank you to u/Lolo_Loves, u/The_Media_Guy, and u/regularjoeseph and everyone else who participated in the posts that they made.

Conclusion

Please let me know your thoughts or theories? Do you have any ideas about what actions need to occur at Beecher's Hope? Do you have any thoughts about potential items to interact with? Are there any specific outfits that need to be worn to unravel this mystery?

Edit: There may be more alarm clocks! Keep your eyes peeled.

Edit 2: I found a 15th clock in the master bedroom of Beecher's Hope. I will post photos in the comments.

Potentially found the step after the two green bird shapes.

Attached is a video of what I believe to be the next step or what leads to the next step of the spider mystery. I’m not sure if I’m just seeing what I want to see, but I was exploring Mt Shann and saw a golden eagle perched on the sundial. While looking through my binoculars I saw an ambient particle, supposedly a leaf or some natural plant drifting in the wind. To me, I immediately thought this looked exactly like the roof markings. The shape isn’t exactly 1:1, but this is pretty dang close in my opinion. Any input is always appreciated.

The Saint Denis Based Corinthian Club

The secretive fraternity of men is based in Saint Denis. They seem to be modeled after real life Freemason organizations, and possibly the Corinthian Club based in Scotland. People claim they are also tied to Chelonianism and worship the sun in a similar fashion.

The members generally wear long Corinthian blue coats, with either a gold vest or neckwear. There is a lot of variation in the outfits of their members, so I do not think the club had the strictest standards. I spent several days in Saint Denis and discovered at least 8-9 members. They can be encountered throughout the city at various times. They are often hanging out in front of the club building or walking nearby. They can also frequently be found in the Bastille Saloon. I saw several residents of Saint Denis who were most likely members of the club, but I did not include them in the count. Usually the shade of blue of their coat was a little too dark or light.

I encountered a member of the Corinthian Club in Blackwater. He was being mugged and I intervened, and he said I would be rewarded with a favor. There is also the corpse of a club member located between the Witches Cauldron and the Fairvale Shanty. During the mission "A Bright Bouncing Boy" a club member can be seen standing menacingly under the tree during the entire first part of the cut scene, staring at Marko and Arthur.

The building the Corinthian Club is in is very interesting. The building is directly connected to the Théâtre Râleur. On the other side of the club is the Saint Denis Supreme Court. The building shares a lot of similarities with the Bank of Rhodes, including the large columns located on the facade of both building. The symbol representing the club is placed on the building in multiple locations. There is a large lighting rod located on top of the building. It makes me wonder what would happen if lighting struck the rod.

There are also many peculiar details on the outside and inside of the Théâtre Râleur. It is housed in the same building as the club as I mentioned earlier. The top floor VIP balcony has a door the leads directly into the club, though the door is locked. On the facade of the theater are carvings of flowers which resemble the sun. The inside of the theater is very elaborate. There is a rotunda in the lobby has what appears to be a large golden sun on the underside of the dome. There are also sun symbols within the windows of the Saint Denis Supreme Court.

The decorative bars located at the ticket booth of the theater are the same bars used for the Bank of Rhodes tellers. After noticing this and having spent several days in Saint Denis I decided to visit the Bank of Rhodes to do some more investigation. As soon as I got off of the coach guess who I saw walking up to the bank. Another member of the Corinthian Club! He did not seem to pleased that I was there. Do you think the decorative bars in the bank and theater resemble anything? They seem to fit along with the sun theme of both buildings.

The last thing that piqued my interest was the fenced off area in the back of the Corinthian Club. The entire area has spiked security fence, except for one area where you can climb over. The only thing I found interesting was this bottle of cordial which can be used to give relief to cholera. This could be just random trash. I am not sure if these bottles are common. I know similar bottles can be found in Pleasance and are though to be related to the plague that occurred there.

What do you think about the Corinthian Club? Are they just Rockstar proving a bit of world building, or is there something more to them?

Interesting Shadows near Window Rock & Meteor Spawn (Spider Dream)

Hi all,

Forgive the poor quality, I'm trying to figure out how to upload media directly from my PS5 online. These are photos taken from my phone of my TV. I'm making this Reddit account just to post.

Photo 1) I followed the "lower level" guitar in Fort Wallace to the general area of Window Rock. In my current playthough, I have not been to Window Rock before. Since the Spider Dream mystery began, I've been experimenting with potential "timed" events in the NW area of the map, ie. looking for new textures spawning at specific night hours near Bacchus Bridge, train tunnels, tree clusters etc. I came across the Nevada Hat location, and nearby you get an alternative view of Window Rock. In patiently observing the area, an interesting shadow of "W Guitar (?)" can be seen. Perhaps this is the Guitar we're looking for, and we go West from here to look for birds...

I'm using the "Pause" screenshot to show the in-game time, but the shadows are just as visible in game, if not more so.

Photo 2) Here is the map position of where I was when observing the shadows.

Photo 3) Now, I can't find any information online regarding this, but once leaving the area I thought "heck, maybe I've observed enough animals now to get the Giant's Birds to spawn". I headed that way, and they didn't spawn - HOWEVER, upon leaving the area a VERY CLEAR FALLING METEOR could be seen from the sky. As far as I can tell, it was falling directly south. I headed South as fast as I could, unfortunately killing my horse in the process via inconvenient train. RIP Wynona. I saved this 30 seconds in game on my PS5, and will try to post ASAP.

No Photo 4) I've just been riding around now stuck in a days long thunder storm looking for a new meteor.

Meteor Spawn (Video Follow Up)

This is a follow up to my previous post. Here is the 30 second clip I saved after seeing the Meteor spawn. I retrieved this by downloading the PSN App.

I had stayed up all night as Arthur at Window Rock observing shadows outlined in my previous post.

My next two locations I was heading to were the Giant's Birds (where this video starts, they still aren't spawning for me), and I was en route to the Strange Statues, a location that I had not yet explored in my current play through.

The meteor spawns at the top of the screen, with a bright light and plume of wide smoke following it.

I headed straight for it but couldn't locate where it landed last night.

I have not seen any mention of a meteor falling in Story Mode before.

I'm playing as Arthur, Chapter 3 with 45% completion. I've hit all the Spider Dream feathers with the Ancient Tomahawk, and shot up the 2 Telephone poles, though I have no idea what, if anything, triggered this event. Since last night, I have closed game and continued searching for the possible meteor landing zone.
