Spectral Spectrum is a tool item which allows users to paint a cosmetic item. When applied, it will add a team-colored effect that pulsates in intensity. On RED team, the item's color shifts between shades of bright yellow, orange and deep red. On BLU team, the color shifts between light blue and white.
This effect is only visible around Halloween or during a Full Moon; at other times of the year, it does not appear in gameplay, unless the server has Halloween mode enabled. However, items with the Spell applied can be equipped at any time and display their effect on the loadout screen, even when it is not visible during games.
Prior to Scream Fortress 2015, it could be found during Halloween events inside of Haunted Halloween Gifts on Ghost Fort, or from a Pile Of Curses.
