“

Be the first team to summon the skeleton king this Scream Fortress in... LOS MUERTOS! A unique take on a day of the (un)dead celebration taking place in a small village with a terrible curse! — Los Muertos publicity blurb

”

Los Muertos is a community-made King of the Hill map, set in a Latin American (or Badlands) town late at night broadly decorated as if for Día de los Muertos (Spanish for "Day of the Dead"). The control point is at the center of the town plaza in front of the large cathedral. Periodically, the Witching Hour arrives, spawning magic spells and opening a Path of Marigolds bridge to an altar that transports the player to the Land of the Dead. At the end of each round, Skeletons rise from around the map (with the "skeleton king" spawning inside the cathedral) and attack anyone still alive before the match ends or round restarts.

Los Muertos was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
