Eyeaduct is a King of the Hill map, released as part of the Scream Fortress Very Scary Halloween Special on October 27, 2011. It is a "haunted" version of Viaduct, containing many graphical differences that give off a Halloween theme.
Similar to the previous year's Halloween event map, Mann Manor, Eyeaduct has spawning prizes, pumpkin bombs, and a boss. It also includes the haunting ghosts of 2009's Halloween event map, Harvest Event. The haunting ghosts will not appear until the point has been captured by one of the teams. The boss will appear once 10 people are playing.
MONOCULUS haunts this map much the same way that Horseless Headless Horsemann haunts Mann Manor; he will spawn on the Control point, roam the map, and attack players and buildings of either team. He may arrive at any phase after "waiting for players" mode, including before the activation of the control point and during humiliation.
Eyeaduct features an Underworld section, which is usually only reachable through portals that are created when MONOCULUS teleports or is killed. When MONOCULUS teleports, he leaves behind a purple portal, which has considerable pulling force and remains active for a few seconds. If the player gets close enough to the portal before it closes, they are restored to full health and transported to one end of a chain of small islands in the Underworld. Players on the islands suffer a health drain similar to bleeding, afterburn or drowning which continues as long as they remain there, and increases in damage by time. At the far end of the islands is a glowing white portal back into the map. It is necessary to jump (or suffer knockback) to reach the portal, as the waters of the Underworld are a Pit fall hazard. Teleporters and other buildings cannot be placed in the Underworld. Stepping into the white portal instantly teleports the player back into the main map, and grants invulnerability, a 200% overheal, a speed boost, and a crit boost for a limited time. When MONOCULUS is killed, he leaves behind a floating Bombinomicon. If the player walks into the Bombinomicon, they are teleported to Loot Island, another section of the Underworld just beyond the regular island, with a small hill leading to a large skull-shaped formation. Upon entering the formation, players await a cage to descend, allowing them to jump into the Bombinomicon. If a player jumps into the Bombinomicon, they are teleported back to the map, granted the achievement Dive Into A Good Book, given the Bombinomicon (if neither have been earned yet), and buffed identically to exiting the Underworld through the white portal. Those who stay behind for too long are engulfed in an explosion that will instantly kill anyone caught in it.
The Haunted Halloween Gift will spawn at random locations around the map at 5 minute intervals if at least 10 players are connected to the server and the server is registered. These behave similarly to the gifts in Mann Manor, except the player who finds it will receive a random Halloween costume piece on death instead of a Halloween Mask.
At the start of humiliation, all surviving players not in the Underworld are transported to the same Underworld island which is reached through a MONOCULUS portal during normal play. However, some players may materialise near to the white portal rather than in the usual starting location. Members of the losing team can take the white portal back to the main map, but receive no status benefits when they do; the white portal works as usual for the winning team.
