'''Haunted Metal Scrap''' is obtainable in-game (but only with the Unusual [[rarity]]) as part of the [[Scream Fortress]] Update. To obtain this item, you must land at least one of the killing blows on the [[Horseless Headless Horsemann]] with a melee weapon, and remain alive during his death. Only a single Unusual Haunted Metal Scrap is obtainable per indivdual account, due to it being linked to an achievement ([[Ghostchievements|Gored!]]). The metal is not tradable, unless [[Gift Wrap]]ped and then sent to another player. The Unusual Haunted Metal Scrap can be used to craft the [[Unusual Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker]] or one of two Halloween hats released in the [[Scream Fortress|Scream Fortress Update]].

— The Haunted Metal Scrap
 ”

The Haunted Metal Scrap is a crafting ingredient introduced during the Scream Fortress Update. It is represented by a triangular pile of purple ingots, with a few broken pieces around it.

This item is awarded to players who earn the Gored! achievement by landing one of the killing blows on the Horseless Headless Horsemann with a melee weapon while remaining alive during the boss' death. Only a single Unusual Haunted Metal Scrap is obtainable per individual account.

It can still be obtained by spawning the Horseless Headless Horsemann and getting the achievement (custom maps that always spawn the boss make it possible to get this year round). The crafting blueprints in which it is used remain active.
