No coffin can contain me.
The Voodoo-Cursed Spy

The Voodoo-Cursed Spy Soul is a cosmetic item for the Spy. It transforms him into a zombie. However, it appears that only the Spy's skeleton remains, despite this the shapes of the Spy's ears and nose can clearly been seen through his balaclava. The bones of his upper right arm and both knees can be seen through his torn suit. He also has matching, bloody vertical wounds on the front and back of his chest, as if having been run through by a large knife, such as seen in Meet the Sniper.

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.
