Sentry Quad-Pumpkins is a tool item. When applied to any of the Engineer's melee weapons, the Level 3 Sentry Gun's rockets gain a purple smoke trail and explode with an orange effect in a similar manner to Pumpkin Bombs.

Casting certain Magic spells while equipping a weapon enchanted with this item causes the effects of the weapon's spell to carry over to the Magic spells (specifically the changes in projectile and explosion effects). The projectiles of the Magic spells Fireball, Ball O' Lightning, and Meteor Storm gain a purple smoke trail, while the explosions of projectiles from the Magic spell "Summon MONOCULUS" become orange Pumpkin Bomb effects.

Prior to Scream Fortress 2015, it could be found during Halloween events inside of Haunted Halloween Gifts on Ghost Fort, or from a Pile of Curses.
