The Noise Maker is an action item that was introduced during the Scream Fortress Update. When equipped in an action slot and used, a noise is played to all the other players on a server. Most Noise Makers have multiple unique sounds that can randomly play when used. Noise Maker - Stabby is currently the only exception to this rule, as it only has one possible sound.

Each Noise Maker, aside from Noise Maker - TF Birthday and Noise Maker - Winter Holiday, can only be used 25 times and is then removed from the Backpack.

Noise Makers

Scream Fortress Update

Halloween Noise Makers could only be purchased from the Mann Co. Store during the Scream Fortress Update event. There were eight Noise Makers, including one which was unused. The seven usable Noise Makers could be purchased as a pack.
