Call of Duty: Warzoneis getting some major updates in the newly released sixth season ofModern Warfarecontent, but one such update went unmentioned. This tiny, creepy addition can be found in a campsite near Stadium, and it already hasWarzoneplayers speculating as to what it could mean.
If players head to the campsite near theoften-exploited Stadium inWarzone, they can hear a girl laughing. An effect on the voice makes the girl sound like a ghostly figure, and with no indication this would be added to the game, accidental discoveries of the laugh are sure to scare players dropping into Verdansk late at night. The audio triggers simply by standing in a certain spot, and the laugh is undeniably haunting and seemingly out of place.

Warzoneplayer MrTheRevertz tweeted out a clip of the laugh, with most players replying with scared comments. The inclusion of the clip could be a nod to the Halloween season, withHalloween-themed cosmetics coming toWarzonealong with a night version of Verdansk. Another player named zhixors also encountered the laughing ghost girl, posting a clip of their encounter onto Reddit. While the simple answer is that the audio file is likely just a spooky Halloween gag, other fans have a more interesting theory.
Numerous commenters, such as Twitter user RocketManKian, believe that the laughing girl is none other than “Samantha from zombies.” Samantha was an integral character within the original Treyarch Zombies storyline, which concluded with theCall of Duty: Black Ops 4map Tag Der Toten. While thelatest teaser forBlack Ops Cold WarZombiesimplies that the game will have a brand new story, it is clearly pulling elements from the original storyline such as monkey bombs and perks-a-colas.
Samantha’s presence at the campsite could be a further confirmation of the recent rumor that theoriginal Zombies crew will be playable withinWarzone. The location of a campfire also holds special significance within Treyarch Zombies Aether Storyline, as the characters’ final moments were held at a campfire within a forest — one not too much different from the campsite where the ghost laugh can be heard. While the laugh may or may not be Samantha, it is undeniably scary and off-putting.
WithWarzoneset to get a Zombies Royale modein the near future, Samantha’s possible presence within theCall of Dutybattle royale is even more possible. How the character could tie in to the Zombies Royale mode orBlack Ops Cold War’s Zombies story is anyone’s guess, but if this laugh truly is Sam and not just a random ghost girl, Zombies fans are going to be very excited.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis available now on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
