The Haunted Halloween Gift is a random drop event that occurs during the 2010 Halloween Special Event in Mann Manor. It has the appearance of a large, green gift box with a golden ribbon. It will spawn at a random location on the map, and once it is found and taken, a 5 minute timer will start for the next occurrence. The first player to find the gift box will receive a random Halloween Mask. In order for the gift boxes to spawn, there must be a minimum of 10 players (not bots, actual Steam clients) on that server.

Trivia

• The gift has been confirmed to spawn in the RED spawn room.
• The gift first appears translucent and cannot be retrieved. The gift will become solid and retrievable after a few seconds.
• The gift can spawn in an inaccessible hallway, near the first control point, preventing players from reaching it. If uncollected the present will remain in location until the map changes.
• Before the October 28, 2010 Patch, players could collect the Haunted Halloween Gift by walking over them in spectator mode.
• If the gift spawns seconds before the round ends and nobody collects it before the teams switch sides, the gift will remain in place during the change.
• It is possible to collect the gift during Humiliation.
• The gift cannot be removed or force spawn it by console.
