ReDeads are recurring enemies in The Legend of Zelda series. They emit a high-pitched scream and freeze Link in his tracks. While Link is frozen, they grab hold of him and drain his health. They share a lot of similarities with Gibdos.

Ocarina of Time

escape!

In Ocarina of Time, ReDeads look very similar to that of a zombie. When Link approaches a ReDead, it emits a scream, immobilizing him temporarily, giving it a chance to jump on his back and start damaging him. This can damage Link greatly in a short amount of time, dealing half a heart of damage roughly every half-second. If this happens, the best way to escape is to rapidly press the A button to try and get out of its grip.

After Link defeats a ReDead, other ones gather around its deceased body until it disappears, ignoring him in the process. They take several hits to defeat.

ReDeads can be stunned for thirty seconds with the Sun's Song, which acts as a great weapon against them.

ReDeads are found in the Kakariko Village Graveyard, Bottom of the Well, Forest Temple, Shadow Temple, and future Hyrule Castle Town.

Majora's Mask

ReDead...
If it catches you in its paralyzing
glare, you won't be able to move.
Shake it off if you get caught!

In Majora's Mask, ReDeads attack in the same way as in Ocarina of Time. However, they only attack Link in his Hylian or Zora forms. The reason for this is since Zora Link is so much like Adult Link, from Ocarina of Time, the animation for ReDead attacks was already done. Because the animation for an attack on Deku or Goron Link was not completed, the ReDeads would still screech, but they would not attack either of these two forms.

There are several ways Link can defeat a ReDead. He can stun them with Deku Nuts or spin into them while wearing the Deku Mask, preventing them from attacking him. A Goron Pound is quite effective against them, as well as Zora Link's magic power. An even simpler way, however, is to just shine light on them using the Mirror Shield, which defeats them instantly.

If Link wears either the Captain's Hat, the Garo's Mask, or the Gibdo Mask, they will start to dance around, in which case they do not attack him, no matter how many times he attacks them. They usually drop quite a significant amount of Rupees when defeated, so Link can use this to his advantage to stock up. If Link shoots a Gibdo with a fire arrow, they will be revealed to just be ReDeads wrapped in cloth.

Through data-mining, it is revealed that frozen and invisible ReDeads exist.

The Wind Waker

In The Wind Waker, ReDeads are pretty much exactly like their Ocarina of Time counterparts. They attack by screaming, which immobilizes Link momentarily, giving them the perfect opportunity to jump on his back, dealing tons of damage in the process. Link can defeat them fairly easily, however, as just a few sword slashes do them in. If he shoots them with the Bow, Boomerang, or Hookshot, they will just creepily stare at him. Link can actually stun a ReDead with the Mirror Shield, if there is a light in the room. This does make them significantly easier to defeat.

ReDeads are found in the Earth Temple, Savage Labyrinth, Mrs. Marie's cabana on Private Oasis, the Ghost Ship, and several mini-dungeons around the Great Sea.

Twilight Princess

Main article: ReDead Knight

In Twilight Princess, ReDeads are known as ReDead Knights and have many significant differences from that of standard ReDeads. They are much larger than ReDeads in any other games. Rather than attacking by jumping on Link's back, this variety screams at him, then hits him with a large sword, dealing a significant amount of damage in one hit.

Tri Force Heroes

In Tri Force Heroes, ReDeads appear in the Lone Labyrinth and the Grim Temple, of the seventh area of the game, The Ruins. They once again attack by screaming at their victims to immobilize them for a short time and jumping on their backs to suck the life out of them. However, in this game, ReDeads no longer have legs, but instead, a partially melted body that slides around, similar to Dead Hand. To attack, the ReDead first must be stunned by the Gust Jar, Gripshot, or Fire Gloves. If not stunned, they will bury themselves into the ground and dodge the attack.

ReDeads in this game have an appearance similar to those in Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker combined. ReDeads once again wear masks, have dark brown bodies, along with ear-hooped earrings. Their screams are the exact ones from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.
