The Seal Mask is a cosmetic item for all classes. It is a paper mask depicting a seal's face with crudely taped-on whiskers. When worn by the Demoman, the seal's left eye is taped out.

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.
