Yeah, the tri-color carvings are not really the Zombie Pumpkins way. But it's cool to try different things and expand your skills.

So... by sharing this photos, are you making a subtle request for Pokemon carving stencils?

Ya know, I've still never seen these Jeepers Creepers movies. But the Creeper sounds like good subject matter for a pumpkin. I especially like the idea of him posed like a scarecrow or with wings extended. Maybe I'll rent the movies to get inspired.

Ah, lucky indeed. It's a great movie.

"Swing your arms from side to side. Come on, it's time to go. Do the Mario! Take one step, and then again. Let's do the Mario, all together now!"

Oh great, now I've got that song stuck in my head. Thanks.

As a kid, I think I liked Christmas more than Halloween (presents vs. just candy). But by now, I must agree with your firefly. Halloween has taken over the top spot in my life. Shhh. Don't tell Santa Claus or baby Jesus.

Excellent invite, Dadja. So is it safe to assume you'll have some Corpse Bride pumpkin carvings at your place this Halloween?

Chris, that Jack Skellington sticker looks awesome! Great idea.

Some of my UK members have told me that it's not so easy to find carving kits on the other side of the pond (as opposed to the States, where Pumpkin Masters kits are sold everywhere ). Well, here are a few places that you might try, if you're a British Halloween fan with a craving to carve: PumpkinC...

"Retailers and trend-watchers also are sensing a heightened comfort level with scarier costumes and decorations, a full return to the dark side after many revelers toned down their outfits following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and subsequent anthrax threats in 2001." So says the Associated Press....

Has anyone tried this Power Master Pumpkin Carving Saw yet? New for this year, it uses the common carving saws we all know and love, but it's motorized and battery operated. http://www.zombiepumpkins.com/images/forum/pmpowersaw.jpg They claim it's "designed for comfort and detailed carving." As for ...

Zombie Walks seem to be a growing trend, and I LIKE it! Basically, this involves a large gathering of people who put on zombie makeup and shuffle around in public places. You might have heard about the one that took place in San Francisco on July 30th. You can see a photos, videos and personal accou...

A friend of mine (thanks Don!) came up with this creative place to display a pumpkin stencil. On the front of a hard cover sketchbook/journal. A great place to jot down all your nefarious schemes. I'm toying with the idea of offering such an item as a contest prize. Or... would anyone be interesting...

I visited Trail of Terror for the first time last year, and was pretty impressed. It's gotta be the most elaborate haunt around these parts of Connecticut. The unique aspect to this attraction is that it's all outside. You weave a path through the woods, encountering different scenes (many based on ...

Hey folks, I'm Ryan. The freak behind this monstrosity known as Zombie Pumpkins. I'm the one to praise (or blame) for just about everything you see on this site, from the pumpkin stencils to the website design. When I'm not designing pumpkin patterns, I'm also the customer service department, the pa...
