So, let's see yours. My wife did a scorpion this year:

Lights on, just so you can see the rest of the pumpkin:

Wow, that's pretty ******* impressive. Did she free hand carve that or use a stencil?

She prints out a pattern, then works for like two days on it.

Not so much this year (too busy). Last year was a torch lit ceilidh, which really rocked, as Samhain (pronounced sal-win), is a major date on the Celtic calendar. Usually, there's a certain party we go to.

But every year, she makes a Jack-o-Lantern like this. This is actually a modest effort. A few years ago, she did one of Legolas. The year before that, was a haunted cowboy scene. She's really pretty incredible in her carvings.

I don't carve pumpkins, I smash pumpkins that don't meet my artistic standards. I'm a critic.

This one is cool.

Smash or no smash?

I'd probably let yours live. Next year though I expect to see St. George ********** with a dragon.
