Noises in the Breeze
The unearthly voices you hear periodically while in the map appear to be whispering "pistachio", more likely than not referring to the Dark Carnival villain. Am I alone here? Delacroix 09:16, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
Nope, I hear it too, but it's actually whispering "Mustachio". Otherwise, you got it! TomatoLicense 12:56, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
- Headsmack* Of course, the L4D2 villain would be overly delicious otherwise. Delacroix 22:33, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
I've also heard what sounds like "Natascha"/"Where's Natsacha?" or "auto-shot". Anyone else hear this one? Mbulmer 06:19, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
I contributed that I heard it say "Heads, heads, heads", but it was removed. I heard it this morning, I'm positive. Consider checking on it. Earballs 15:50, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
- Are you sure you didn't have the Eyelander/HHHM Axe equipped? :P Mbulmer 20:15, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
- I'm sure, I was a scoot. However, it is possible for server admins to play soundclips. That's the only thing it could have it been if the map didn't say it. Earballs 18:15, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
I just listened to the actual audio files (sound\ambient\hallow04 - hallow08) and they don't sound like those quotes. They sound like gibberish. One of them sounds like "stah tah shee stah" which most likely has been misinterpreted as "stop touching stuff" or "that's what she said". I also tried playing them backwards, but that also sounded random. HTML Earth 18:15, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, I've heard the voices and determined for myself they sound like 'Stahn Tah Shee Stah', like you have. Could this possibly be another language? Like Latin? ~PeacekeeperRen 00:57, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
Hello there, first time participating in a talk on a wiki! We tried to see on our server the other day, when no ghost appeared, who could understand best those distant voices. It appears the great majority of our players agreed on the fact that those voices were speaking of some actual TF2 weapons this way: "Kiss Natascha" and "Start a shortstop". "Mustachio" could have been nice though. ^^ Tell me what you think of it! There might as well be more references to other weapons but we didn't hear them. And by the way, since I'm new around, if you can tell me what's good etiquette about this: if I happen to have some info like that, I think a nice talk between users about it is always a good start, but when do we decide to actually add this kind of info to the article? Do we have to all agree on the subject before? Thanks in advance, cheers! BadDog 07:16, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
- We need to get these sound files on the wiki and I can't find them in the game files. CidTheNinja 23:56, 22 October 2011 (PDT)
Z.M.'s Fireplace?
has anyone else try to distinguish the fireplace within or near the 3rd point as Z.M's Fireplace seen within the family portrait? Gamecrazy009 01:59, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
- it is absolutely not the same fireplace. There are no similarities between the two besides the fact that they both have a lit fire. --

Trivia About the Granary Portrait
Is this really that interesting/helpful or can I clean it up?ThePowerPlumber 04:56, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
I think it should be removed. --WhistleTeam 04:59, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
2fort2furious Server IP
You don't seriously think this is a mere coincidence and not worth pointing out, do you? YM is a member of 2fort2furious, and the numbers on the building ARE the same numbers as the IP address. -KazooieBanjo 10:07, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
Other miscellaneous details about the map
Hello there, there are still some interesting details that can be written about this map. Maybe you won't find some of them irrelevant on the page dedicated to the map, maybe you will. I'm suggesting the hidden frog with an antenna on its head that sits right behind the right door next to the fireplace in Red's manor. Might be the author's signature or a reference to some other thing. If you find any other detail worth the mentioning or at least worth the talking, feel free to post it here!

- Sounds more like you were playing on a modme frog server.--Focusknock s 11:42, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply, as a matter of fact I was playing on the plain vanilla server of my community where I happen to be an admin. Does this mean you were not able to find the frog? I had to noclip or go there as a spectator in order to see it. Anyway, this map is full of nice and small details. BadDog 19:48, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
- There are also a series of rubber ducks scattered around the map. Some of them can only be found with noclip as well, although I'm not sure if it would be worthy of a trivia fact. Never saw the frog though, mainly because I didn't know it existed. Magic Magician 10:54, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- As far as I know, the ducks are in all of YM's maps, so it might be worth noting. NihonTiger 08:16, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Clean-up by me
Ok, before bashing me.... seriously, this page was a utter mess. Two separate gallery sections for the paintings, concept art an easter eggs, and only THREE pics of the capture points. Redmond's silhouette in Red spawn and the freakin' portait of Emily both mentioned twice, and not a single word about the locations themselves. This page need some "real love".--Kid Of The Century 11:42, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
Identical to Mountain Lab
Is this map physically identical to Mountain Lab? (Except for Halloween stuff and minor changes like no railings around point C) Then we should probably put it somewhere in the intro paragraph. -Rocket Ship BBQ 09:28, 13 August 2011 (PDT)
- It's in the trivia, that's enough. The layouts aren't dead on exact of each other, but they're from the same template Balladofwindfishes 09:42, 13 August 2011 (PDT)
- They were both from the Art Pass Contest in which a "dev-textured" basic layout was given from Valve, and participants would detail it. Goatcheese3 03:21, 9 May 2013 (PDT)
Is this still out of date?
This article seems fine to me and seems similar to the article it says that not the same style. If there’s still things that still need added except the strategy part, I would like to know.
More voices?
Think we should do a list of all the voices that can be heard? Just today I heard a whisper Grug 22:00, 23 October 2011 (PDT)say "That's what she said" in the blu spawn.
Haunted Halloween Gifts
Hello I have tried to find Haunted Halloween Gifts on Mann Manor servers but I cant find servers that have Haunted Halloween Gifts. How to find servers that have. --Bowser 13:07, 15 June 2012 (PDT)Bowser
- You can't find Haunted Halloween Gifts outside of the main Halloween events. – Epic Eric (T | C) 13:11, 15 June 2012 (PDT)
Possible little Easter Egg?
I don't know if anyone else has noticed it before, but the scarecrow outside of the map reminds me of Turnip-Head, from Studio Ghibli's Howl's Moving Castle where bears a striking resemblance, minus the color of the gibus. I thought this was kind of cool. IDK, just throwing out my barf, what does anyone else think? Vitriolic Gent (talk) 21:58, 25 October 2014 (PDT)
