The '''Ghastly Gibus''' is an unlockable [[Hats|headwear]] item for all classes. It appears as a slightly damaged, black gibus hat with the top nearly detached. In a similar fashion to the [[Gentle Manne's Service Medal]], the first possible method of getting this hat was to be one of the first 10,319 people to visit a [http://www.teamfortress.com/pumpkinpatch/gibus/ hidden web page]. The alternative method, through which it can still be unlocked, is to complete the ''Ghastly Gibus Grab'' [[Scarechievements|achievement]] by [[domination|dominating]] a player wearing the hat. Unlike the [[Mildly Disturbing Halloween Mask]], players are not restricted to when they can wear the hat. This hat can be worn all year round.
