Red Demon

* Idle
* Repelled
* Apparition

The **Red Demon** is exclusively featured in the tutorial section of FAITH and The Unholy Trinity. They're seen briefly during a cutscene in Chapter II and reappear as an apparition in Chapter III.

It is actually the UNSPEAKABLE in disguise.

## Appearance

Red Demons look like the stereotypical depiction of demons: red, horned, humanoid figures. They fade when repelled by the crucifix, but they can never be truly banished.

## Biography

### September of 1987

John experiences a dream where Amy reaches out to him to return to the Martin House on the anniversary of the failed exorcism to save her. For preparation, John practices uses his crucifix on a Red Demon.

Feeling like he's done enough, he wakes up from the dream and prepares himself to return to the house on the 21st.

### September 28th, 1987

Getting aid from a gray figure, John defeats Miriam in a sanctum. After getting repelled enough times, she stumbles and starts to scream before her body evaporates into the Red Demon, which then transforms into the UNSPEAKABLE. The entity flashes red lights vibrantly, causing John to wake up from his dream in a panic.

### October 31st, 1987

After some questioning, John and Gary duel. During the fight, Gary has a chance to summon apparitions of demons and creatures that John has fought against in the past, including this demon. Like all the other apparitions, it cannot kill him. Rather, they knock him down. If John doesn't retrieve his crucifix in time, Gary captures him and performs the Second Death on him, killing him. Otherwise, this demon doesn't reappear again.

## Trivia

* Due to how this demon pops up as an apparition during the fight, it implies that the tutorial section was real, and John experienced it.
	+ I doubt that there's an actual, black room in Connecticut that has teleporting apples and a demon that doesn't kill, so the reasoning why it would be there is that John had a dream of Amy reaching out to him to return to the Martin House. It could be that, since John hasn't worn his priest outfit and crucifix in almost a year, prepares himself for his upcoming journey.
* An important detail that's easy to miss is that Miriam turned into the Red Demon, which then turns into the UNSPEAKABLE. This is important because it gives proof that the Red Demon is the manifestation of the UNSPEAKABLE.
	+ You can see the characteristics of the demon through its red horns, humanoid body, and two toes.
* In the teaser trailer for Chapter II, it seems like the Red Demon being the UNSPEAKABLE was planned from the beginning. It transforms into the gigantic entity with Nate and Jason Martin holding its hands.
	+ This also proves that the Red Demon/UNSPEAKABLE is the demonic entity that was taking over a newspaper article of three murder victims in Chapter II, since it says lines that were included in the article, "Their hands is at thy throats, and yet you see them not."
		- This also means that they're capable of talking, however, incorporating details from anywhere outside the game isn't my cup of tea. And yet, it's important nonetheless, since it gives impressions that these two entities know John through-and-through.
* The filename for this demon is simply "Demon".
* This demon, the Martin Twins, and the Skeletal Figure are the only characters within the series that don't say anything or make a sound at all.
	+ The Gray Demon would've been included as well but they make a sound effect when teleporting around. They don't say or speak anything either.
	+ The UNSPEAKABLE doesn't directly say anything, but it makes animalistic noises during a hallucination trip.
* This demon, the Skeletal Figure, and the Gray Demon are the only enemies that cannot be banished or defeated at all.
* John and the Red Demon look to be about the same height, making it at least 6 foot tall.
