The Mansion map is awesome, the new masks are awesome, the headless horseless horseman battle is epic. Also there are new hats which are shamelessly expensive ( 10€ each ), and epic noisemakers - Im gonna buy about 10 Stabbys tomorrow and scare shit our of people cloaking next to them and playing it.

It seems that the haunted metal in the achivments is used to craft some kind of unusual eyelander reskin, by the look of the name its the same axe the horsemann uses :4

http://www.tf2items.com/allitems.php Second question mark at the bottom is the unusual eyelander reskin

Edit: Also, crate series number 3 and 4 are out, maybe even 5 too but i'm not too sure on that one
Quote:
Just got a Series #3,
Contains

The Bushwacka
Crit-a-Cola
The Homewrecker
Troublemaker's Tossle cap
Bombing Run
Stout Shako
Description tag
Distinctive lack of hue
And of course the 'extremely rare item'
Quote:
Series #4 has:
Battalion's Backup
The Pain Train
Your Eternal Reward
Whoopee Cap
The Heavy Duty Rag
Handyman's Handle
Dueling Mini-Game
An Extraordinary Abundance of Tinge
Edit2: tried getting a screenshot of the new axe but it doesn't seem to want to play nice, it is the same axe the horsemann uses, and you can see it on page 11 of the catalog 8)

6 more hats just became a lot more popular...
Update. Actually shitload of hats just became less popular
S5 crate:
Name Tag
The Powerjack
The Gunboats
The Southern Hospitality
Bloke's Bucket Hat
Safe'n'Sound
Ze Goggles
Handyman's Handle
Color No. 216-190-216
Unusual!
Looks like Handymand's Handle is going to be Nappers and Sombrero combined in terms of not having any value. Just wondering why are they doing it to awesome pyro hats :(

actually a good point, think we need to review the map rotation organisaiton, cause currently all the server killer maps are bunched together.

Ok, bit of an update about the haunted scrap metal, its used to craft the new Halloween hats and the new demo axe.

2 refined metals, a haunted scrap and a skullcutter makes the new axe
4 refined metal and a haunted scrap makes one of the 4 new buyable Halloween hats
And crafting the new axe with 2 refined metal gives one of the new hats too (although I don't see who would give up an awesome axe for a hat :))

To get the haunted metal you need to hit the horsemann with a melee weapon and not die, when he dies you should get the gored achievement which gives you one haunted scrap (I'm not sure if it’s repeatable yet)

Source: http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Unusu ... etal_Scrap (this is the official TF2 wiki, not the old unofficial one)

:5:

Edit: aw, ninja'd by loki :(

Damn, getting the metal from the Headless Horsemann was fucking hard. You had to like hit him with a melee weapon the moment "died".
