It’s Halloween, and you’re ready to carve your pumpkins! But, gosh, if you can’t come up with anything new, than it looks like it’ll be the same, traditional pumpkin face again this year. Don’t worry though! Here’s some pumpkin carving ideas to get you inspired to be fun and creative this Halloween season!
This simple bucket-style pumpkin carving is perfect for when you want to bring a bit more flare when you leave your candy outside of your house. It’s practical, cute, and you don’t run the risk of someone jacking your plate!
Overall, a pretty cute pumpkin carving design.
This is a really fun and funny way to implement games this Halloween by making a simple beanbag toss with these pumpkins! You could also get your kids, if you have any, to help with this game.
You could also make it so that the size of the candy is hinged on whether you make it in or not! For example, if the player doesn’t throw the beanbag into the pumpkins after three tries, they get normal sized candy. If they do make it in, then they get a huge candy bar!
If you’re really not feeling the whole beanbag toss, you just want something low-effort, or you don’t really celebrate Halloween but like Autumn, then this is for you. Take a drill, and just drill some holes in a pattern on a pumpkin.
It’s simple, low-effort, and also looks really pretty at night! This pumpkin carving will look like beautiful twinkling lights at night.
Okay, think of a pattern, any pattern. No, not that one. How can you make this pumpkin carving process much easier? You can totally use a cookie cutter to cut out a pattern on your pumpkin. It’s much easier than trying to cut out a face or anything, and it’s more unique!
Plus, if you’ve got kids, this will be a cute activity to do with them as well. It’s an adorably simple pumpkin carving idea that you’ll totally love.
This is much cooler kind of design. This mummy pumpkin carving doesn’t need much, just a strong arm, and a good knife, along with a few grapes.
Cut the pumpkin into sections, and mismatch the sections of the — preferably white — pumpkin, or get two white pumpkins, and switch some of the pieces together. If you don’t have an already white pumpkin, white paint is the way to go.
Then, once you’re done, use the grapes for the eyes! And also for a nice snack.
This spooky pumpkin carving makes your pumpkin look like a cannibal! It’s that traditional Jack-O’-Lantern face, but a spooky twist. The pumpkin is eating a smaller pumpkin!
Again, pretty simple, but it still looks really cool.
These cool skull squash carvings is one of the coolest ways to spice up the front entrance of your house. It’s a fantastic way of using these squash to make the front of your house extra spooky.
This design also has a bit of versatility to it. You could put the squash on the ground, or hang them for that even scarier ghost skull look.
This fun and sweet-toothed design is the perfect way to use those unwanted candy corn candies you’ve got lying around in your house. It also makes for a fun activity for your kids so they can decorate the pumpkin with however many candies as they want!

You just need three pumpkins; two small ones, and a huge one. Carve out the Mickey Mouse face, and you’ve got a simple little homage to this mouse on your front porch.
Ever heard of Little Shop of Horrors? It’s about a mutant plant that thirsts for human meat! Truly a staple in Halloween movies that you should definitely make a movie night out of.
This candy dispenser is a fun, creative way to show off your movie knowledge and to give the neighborhood kiddies their sugar high for the evening.
This pumpkin carving looks like it’s gonna say, “I’m gonna suck your blood!” It’s a fun way to make use of vampire fangs too, so your pumpkin is properly scaring kids this Halloween!
There’s also not much hassle when it comes to carving this bad boy out. Pretty simple!

Peek-a-boo! This fun little design is really, really easy, and only requires felt, scissors, googly eyes, and the usual pumpkin carving tools. This is great if you’re not looking to put much effort into carving pumpkins this year!
This is a bit more intricate than the others on here, but the result will look really cute and cool at the end. This is one for the ones that dislike Halloween, but love Autumn in all its glory.
With a careful hand, you’ll be able to achieve this really pretty design!
Ok, you’re armed with a sewing hobby and an imagination. How can you incorporate the two of them together? This is how!
Carve the face out, drill some holes under the eyes and around the mouth, loop some rope in and out of the holes, and by the end of it, you’ll have a simple and clean pumpkin carving!
This cute and funny pumpkin carving is great for kids! It’s a super cute carving that’ll totally make your porch look great during Halloween Night.
Are you a teacher? This pumpkin carving idea is perfect for you then! It’ll show off that creativity of yours! Just get a skinny squash to act as the core, and cut a pumpkin jaggedly. Get some fake seeds, stick them to the “core” and you’ve got yourself a cute little apple core.
Cute hedgehog is cute, but not included.
This crazy looking pumpkin is the scariest one yet! This’ll totally cement your status as the Spookiest House on the Block among the neighborhood.
This super simple pumpkin carving in the shape of a grandma is another funny little way of displaying candy that’s ripe for the taking.
This uncommon pumpkin carving gives Halloween just a little bit of a Día de los Muertos vibe that every Halloween needs. It’s simple, and it’s perfect if you’ve got Mexican or Hispanic heritage.
Do you feel like something’s watching you? Nah, must be the wind or something…
Or is it? It’s these pumpkins staring back at you, picking up candy and talking with your friends. This pumpkin carving is sure to give the neighborhood kids a scare!

You’ve heard of The Purge, right? These masks are an iconic symbol from the movie, and it’s another great film that you should make a movie night out of. It’s pretty spooky.
