Bonus: All chromas adapt the new assets (ghouls, Maiden’s scythe, etc.) for a cohesive look. Let me know if you spot more Easter eggs! 👀 #HighNoonYorick

The tree in the dance emote comes from this Sketchfab post by DJMaesen:

The scythe the maiden uses belongs to a Kayn skin.
The horse used in homeguard is a modified version of the one Rell uses.
The music for "el ghoul" is from a Family Guy episode that parodies Mexican TV shows (referred in the series simply as "Spanish").

The dance emote references the OST from "The good the bad and the ugly", as well as the fictitional cementery used for the movie, and its rebuilt version that can be visited in real life in Burgos, Spain.

Sources and references:
The respawn/winddown emote references High Noon Gangplank, a custom skin I helped making time ago, and the fist bump from Big Hero 6.
The joke emote references shoebody bop:
