It is the third Left 4 Dead 2 campaign to be announced by Valve.

Trivia

 * Dark Carnival is host to a new Uncommon Common Infected, the Clown Infected. His function is very similar to the cut SI the Screamer.
 * There also appear to be Infected with T-shirts that read "STAFF", implying they were working at Whispering Oaks when the Infection struck.
 * Dark Carnival's poster is the first poster to feature an infected, as well as the first to be in landscape position, as opposed to every other campaign poster yet.
 * Coach's and Ellis' clothes have changed in design yet again.
 * The infamous Gnome from Half Life 2: Episode 2 makes an appearance in the poster, just in between Ellis' legs.
 * The tagline in this campaign obviously refers to the height they do on people to make sure they could ride on the attraction safely. This tagline may have been influenced by suggestions made on the official forums.
 * One of the safe rooms appears to be in the "Tunnel of Love" (as seen in some PAX videos).
 * In the dialogue before the campaign, it reveals that it was Ellis' idea to go on to the highway, and Coach used to go to Whispering Oaks as a kid.
 * This is the first campaign in which the new laser sights upgrade is seen.
