Arizona Kid is an undead outlaw that appears as an obstacle and enemy in Alone in the Dark 3.

Biography[]

Background[]

The Arizona Kid was an outlaw who was murdered in his room in the Slaughter Gulch Saloon by Fast Jarrett. Since then various legends have spun about the dead gunslinger, that Arizona Kid would come by the song of the vulture, to haunt the spot of his death, and that he had a portrait that was supposedly painted with his blood and that he could be followed through his painting.

Events of Alone in the Dark 3[]

Edward enters an empty room, with a piece of newspaper lying on the ground that tells the story behind the legend of the ghost of Arizona Kid. When Edward approaches the painting, Arizona Kid jumps out of it and starts shooting around and the vulture on the clock starts singing. Carnby feeds the vulture a piece of dried meat, making Kid jump back to his portrait, vanishing, never to be seen again.

Appearance[]

Arizona Kid appears wearing green gloves, a green shirt, dark blue jeans and brown pointy boots, while sporting a red ascot and a double holster for his guns. He has yellow empty eyes and brown hair.

Strategy[]

Arizona Kid acts initially as an obstacle, impeding the player's progress. As long as the player does not attack him, his shots won't harm Edward, and he cannot be defeated by melee combat and firearms. Simply feed the vulture with the dried meat and it will stop singing, and Kid will jump through his portrait, enabling the player to proceed.

Trivia[]

  • Arizona Kid's character is a reference to Billy the Kid, an infamous outlaw that was killed by Pat Garrett, who in turn was the inspiration for Arizona's killer, Fast Jarrett.
  • If you follow him fast enough after he jumps inside his portrait, it is possible to see him walking for just a second before he vanishes.
