Merasmissions
| “ | ” |
Merasmissions were contracts given out by Merasmus during Scream Fortress events to players with a Soul Gargoyle to be awarded classic Halloween cosmetics, Spellbook Pages, and Halloween cases. Introduced in Scream Fortress 2015, Merasmissions were replaced with Halloween Contracts from Scream Fortress 2017 onward. Contracts completed under the ConTracker's Halloween Contracts set continue to be counted as Merasmissions by the Soul Gargoyle.

Contracts
Participating players were granted one contract each day during the event. These contracts could be completed anytime during the event but should be completed before the event ends. Players who began participating after the first day would have access to the same number of contracts as players who joined on day one.
Each contract set a number of skill-based challenges the player could do to earn Merasmus Points (MP). This could include one or more Advanced objectives, but, unlike the previous Gun Mettle Campaign, contracts do not have a bonus component. To complete a contract, a player must earn 100 MP from that contract's objectives.
In Game
The in-game HUD displayed information about the player's active Merasmissions. This included the number of active contracts, the MP progression of each contract, and each Merasmission's objectives and MP value.

Soul Gargoyle
The Soul Gargoyle is an item that granted access to Merasmissions and is upgraded with souls collected. Although Merasmissions have been replaced with Halloween Contracts, Soul Gargoyles continue to work as they did before the change, counting completed Halloween Contracts as Merasmissions and collecting souls when the player kills or assists in killing players, completes map objectives such as capturing a Control Point and pushing the Payload, or finds and collects a ghostly soul gargoyle that appears at random in some Halloween maps. After the fourth level, it will take 2000 souls for each level. Note that, after the fourth level, only the name of the item changes, but the icon remains the same.
