The Haunted Metal Scrap is a crafting ingredient introduced during the Scream Fortress Update. It is represented by a triangular pile of purple ingots, with a few broken pieces around it.

This item is awarded to players who earn the Gored! achievement by landing one of the killing blows on the Horseless Headless Horsemann with a melee weapon while remaining alive during the boss' death. Only a single Unusual Haunted Metal Scrap is obtainable per individual account.

It can still be obtained by spawning the Horseless Headless Horsemann and getting the achievement (custom maps that always spawn the boss make it possible to get this year round). The crafting blueprints in which it is used remain active.

Update history

October 27, 2010 Patch (Scream Fortress Update)

• The Haunted Metal Scrap was added to the game.

October 27, 2011 Patch (Very Scary Halloween Special)

• [Undocumented] The Spine-Chilling Skull and Voodoo Juju are no longer craftable.

Bugs

• Some Haunted Metal Scrap items have become tradable due to a glitch involving Gift Wrap. Those wrapped before the patch became tradable and produced either a tradable Voodoo Juju, Spine-Chilling Skull, or Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker.

Trivia

• The item description mentioning the Haunted Metal Scrap faintly whispering "heads" is a reference to the Eyelander (which the Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker is a variant of) doing the same in-game.
