(Does my concept sorta cover the hearts though? I've heard those hearts creates lots of confusion and hoping my concept could strengthen the hearts' symbolism in the hat.)

Don't fret, boyo. I'll be gentle!
The Demoman on his voodoo practices

The Voodoo Juju is a cosmetic item for all classes. It is a low, gray top hat with a low brim, that has been decorated with a skull surrounded by hearts, skeletal fingers and two gold rings piercing the rim.

This item was available for purchase from the Mann Co. Store for a limited time during the Scream Fortress event, which ran from October 27 until November 8, 2010.

Using the Fabricate Halloween Headgear recipe once yielded a 50% chance of crafting either a Voodoo Juju or Spine-Chilling Skull. As of the Very Scary Halloween Special Update, this is no longer possible as the recipe only results in one of three 2011 Spine-Chilling Skulls.
