Halloween mode is a server mode which enables Full Moon and enables spawning of the Horseless Headless Horsemann and MONOCULUS. Halloween mode is automatically enabled during yearly Halloween events taking place for roughly 2 weeks at the end of October. It can manually be enabled on servers by using the setting tf_forced_holiday 2
in the server.cfg file.
