Red Death

Red Death is a mirelurk appearing on Red Death Island in 2287.

Background
Over the years, the Red Death has been responsible for the loss of many ships around its island. Local legends hold it to be a fearsome sea monster. In truth, it is a very small, completely docile mirelurk with glowing red eyes whose shine pierces the Fog and lures curious captains to their doom. Every death the creature has ever caused was the result of ships running aground on the rocky shallows surrounding Red Death Island while attempting to investigate the mysterious red glow.

Behind the scenes
The Red Death is named after Edgar Allan Poe's story, The Masque of the Red Death.

Appearances
Red Death appears only in the Fallout 4 add-on Far Harbor.
