Laughter is a community-made King of the Hill map released during the Scream Fortress 2019 update. It is a Halloween version of the custom map Slaughter.

Laughter was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Features

Underworld

Similar to Eyeaduct, Laughter features an underworld section. Periodically, doors near the control point will open, which contain a portal to the underworld. This section requires players to navigate down a series of twisted, confusing hallways, including platforming sections that could kill the player if traversed incorrectly. Players may not place buildings in this room. 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.

Trivia

  • A skull with a glowing blue eye with the upper part of a Paka Parka can be found in an inaccessible area on the terrace behind the BLU spawn. This is a reference to Sans, a character from the game "Undertale".
  • A Sledder's Sidekick wearing a Scout's headset can be found looking at a group of monitors within one the ending sections of the Underworld. This is a reference to the secret "Dog Ending" of the game "Silent Hill 2".
  • The map contains multiple Easter eggs referencing popular online streamers:
    • One of the two shops behind RED spawn is named Vinny's Water Ice. This is a reference to streamer and founder of Vinesauce, Vinesauce Vinny.
    • Behind the window on the upper floor of the RED tunnel, a skull with glowing red eyes can be seen, wearing a blue Toadstool Topper with Grenadier Helm's horns. This is a reference to fellow Vinesauce streamer, Vargskelethor Joel.
    • There is an attraction just outside of RED spawn called J. Elbertson's Robotic Sideshow. This is a reference to another popular streamer, Jerma985.
  • There is a broken Horseless Headless Horsemann animatronic in the sewer tunnel under RED spawn.
