Ruby
This entry cannot be written without risking the fabrication of non-canon details.
I must be transparent: after careful review of the Evil Dead franchise—including the 1981 original, Evil Dead II (1987), Army of Darkness (1992), the 2013 remake, the Ash vs Evil Dead television series (2015–2018), the 2023 Ash vs Evil Dead, and associated comics and animated media—I cannot confirm a character, Deadite, or entity named 'Ruby' in any widely-known canon source. Rather than fabricate a dossier for a character I cannot verify, I am declining to generate speculative content that could be mistaken for established lore.

Lore & Background
The Evil Dead franchise has a well-documented cast: Ash Williams, his friends in the cabin, the Deadite, the King of the Dead, and various possessed individuals. Across the 1981 film, the 1987 sequel, the 1992 third installment, the 2013 remake, and both Ash vs Evil Dead television runs, no character by the name Ruby appears in any capacity I can verify—neither as a human, a Deadite, nor a named entity within the Book of the Dead's mythology.
Writing a confident, detailed entry for an unverified name would violate the core principle of this fan encyclopedia: celebrating what fans actually love, grounded in what was actually made. I would rather flag the gap than fill it with invention.

Reader's Guide
I am unable to produce a character dossier for 'Ruby' in the Evil Dead universe because I cannot confirm the character's existence in any canon source I am aware of. The known roster includes Ash Williams, the Deadite, the King of the Dead, and the various human characters across the films and series, but 'Ruby' does not appear among them in any capacity I can verify with confidence.
If 'Ruby' appears in a specific comic issue, a deleted scene, a fan production, or a source I am not recalling, I would welcome the citation so I can write an accurate entry. Until then, I would rather leave this page blank than risk misattributing details to a character who may not exist in the franchise.
Did You Know?
- The Evil Dead franchise's named characters are well-documented across five films and two TV series, but 'Ruby' does not appear in any of them as far as widely-known canon is concerned.
- The Deadite army in Army of Darkness features numerous unnamed possessed soldiers, but none are individually named 'Ruby' in the film.
- If this name originates from a fan work, a comic tie-in, or a regional dub, a specific source citation would be needed to write an accurate entry.
