Get ready for a spooky & offbeat Halloween

But I didn’t want to just end Halloween at Offbeat Homes with nothing so… what could be more fitting than Extreme Pumpkins.

Extreme Pumpkins is a website that features a yearly contest for those who like to carve outside the box — or sphere as it may be. They also have a book; Extreme Pumpkins: Diabolical Do-It-Yourself Designs to Amuse Your Friends and Scare Your Neighbors.

They have some of the most wacky pumpkin creations ever made with chainsaws, shotguns, fire, and more. Here are some contest winners I liked.

A few more after the jump.

Someone carved the one below with a lathe! You can make thinks like smooth round rails or wood bowls with a lathe — or in this case turn out one fine looking pumpkin.

Candy corn face.

And to end we have Jack — because I adore Nightmare Before Christmas.

I hope everyone’s Halloween night was happy, fun, and safe!
