Dark Carnival

Where the lights are out, the music has stopped, and only the screams remain.

Dark Carnival is a campaign in the video game Left 4 Dead 2. It is the second campaign in the game, set in a traveling carnival in Georgia. The survivors must fight their way through the decaying fairgrounds, from the carnival entrance and tents to a final escape via a fire escape and roof. The campaign is notable for introducing the Jockey Special Infected, a new enemy that can leap onto survivors and steer them away from the group. The atmosphere contrasts festive decorations with the horror of the infection, creating a setting of decay and false joy.
