From Skyrim-style Viking Helmets, to creepy Pig Masks, there are a ton of totally unique hats you can acquire for Arthur Morgan’s further adventures in Red Dead Redemption 2. These masks are incredibly difficult to locate, and some of them are hidden in places we’d never think to look. Even if you’ve visited these spots, you’ll probably miss the special hats.
Once you collect a hat, you own it forever. You can swap to a bonus hat in your horse inventory, and some of these masks are pretty spooky. You can get a severed pig head mask, or a satanic ram skull — if you’re looking for something less gross, you can also find a Pirate Hat, or a Civil War General hat. There are lots of different hats to choose from, so scroll down to get their locations, and check out the maps in the gallery below to pinpoint their locations.
