Hangings are commonplace across mostsettlements in Red Dead Redemption 2. Oftentimes, those being executed are convicted criminals and bounties that the player has turned in.

Additionally, the player may discover an already hung victim in free-roam, oftentimes serving as traps for outlaw gangs such as the Night Folk and Murfree Brood.
