The '''Mildly Disturbing Halloween Mask''' is an unlockable headwear item available to all classes. It appears as a moldering, eldritch veil of such manifold depravity, the human eye will not process the sheer enormity of its malevolence, and out of self-preservation will merely show you a brown paper bag with a team-colored face painted on it. It can be unlocked during the annual Haunted Halloween Special Event by any player who completes the ''Candy Coroner'' [[Scarechievements|Scarechievement]], which involves collecting 20 player-dropped [[Halloween pumpkins]] on [[Harvest|Harvest Event]]. The hat itself can only be worn during the yearly Haunted Halloween Special Event (October 29 to November 9). Otherwise, wearing the mask will result in the default character appearance (an "Empty" head slot).

The '''Mildly Disturbing Halloween Mask''' is an [[Achievement items|unlockable]] [[Cosmetic items|cosmetic item]] for [[Classes|all classes]]. It is a brown paper bag with a team-colored face painted on it, with each class adorned with a different design.
* The mask is the only hat released so far with an event-only restriction. It cannot be worn outside of the Halloween event, unless a user has [[Cheats|sv_cheats 1]] active.
+
 
* Like all special reward Hats, the Halloween mask cannot be used to craft a hat.
+
The faces for each class are as follows:
* Whilst wearing this hat outside of the Halloween Event and taunting, it can be seen that the face of each class lacks animation.
+
* Scout - A team-colored monster face with a jagged-toothed sneer.
* While it appears that the mask can be traded, attempting to do so will cause the trade to fail.
+
* Soldier - A monster face with an open smile, team-colored hair that covers the eyes, and a long orange nose.
* The hat description was written by [http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1411361&page=6 Duffren].
+
* Pyro - A drawing of a team-colored bird with an orange exclamation point above it.
* Thus far, this is the only holiday-event hat.
+
* Demoman - A team-colored displeased cyclops face sticking out a long, orange tongue.
* This hat may be a parody of H.P. Lovecraft's literature, because it is stated that many Lovecraftian monsters' true forms cannot be processed by humans and, instead, appear as simpler creatures.
+
* Heavy - A team-colored frustrated monster face with an open mouth.
* This is one of only three hats available through completing achievements, the other two are the [[Alien Swarm Parasite]] and the [[Ghastly Gibus]]
+
* Engineer - A team-colored background behind a drawing of a robotic skull with orange eyes with two crossed wrenches below it.
 +
* Medic - A team-colored disappointed monster face, similar to [[w:Frankenstein's monster|Dr. Frankenstein's monster]].
 +
* Sniper - A team-colored shocked monster face with three orange eyes.
 +
* Spy - A team-colored apathetic monster face wearing a stereotypical black "spy mask" over the eyes.

Valve, on the hats' true forms

The Mildly Disturbing Halloween Mask is an unlockable cosmetic item for all classes. It is a brown paper bag with a team-colored face painted on it, with each class adorned with a different design.

The faces for each class are as follows:

  • Scout - A team-colored monster face with a jagged-toothed sneer.
  • Soldier - A monster face with an open smile, team-colored hair that covers the eyes, and a long orange nose.
  • Pyro - A drawing of a team-colored bird with an orange exclamation point above it.
  • Demoman - A team-colored displeased cyclops face sticking out a long, orange tongue.
  • Heavy - A team-colored frustrated monster face with an open mouth.
  • Engineer - A team-colored background behind a drawing of a robotic skull with orange eyes with two crossed wrenches below it.
  • Medic - A team-colored disappointed monster face, similar to Dr. Frankenstein's monster.
  • Sniper - A team-colored shocked monster face with three orange eyes.
  • Spy - A team-colored apathetic monster face wearing a stereotypical black "spy mask" over the eyes.

This item can only be worn 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, it can be equipped at any time and can still be viewed on the loadout screen even when it is not visible during games.

This item is awarded to players who earn the Candy Coroner achievement by collecting 20 player-dropped Halloween pumpkins on Halloween maps.

The item's description was written by Duffren for the Hat Describing Contest.
