It’s that time of year again! That freaky-deaky week leading up to the holiday that fantasy fans, horror geeks, and scifi nerds alike all treasure above all the rest: Halloween. If I could pull it off, I’d go “Holla!” But I can’t.

So in lieu of awesome slang, I’ll instead give you a little treat for your pumpkin-shaped candy vessel instead — ten of the most awesome Jack-O-Lanterns to be found in that screwy mess of a place we call the internet. So take a break from frantically sewing your Dumbledore costume and enjoy the pumpkins!

Artistic AND evil:

Some gamer awesomeness:

Hated the movie, love the pumpkin:

A possible homage to Goonies:

Disturbing and funny at the same time:

VERY clever use of the stem, which is usually ignored:

And, okay, I lied. There aren’t ten here — there are eleven. Because when I saw this pumpkin I just about fell in love…

Happy Halloween! And if you have a picture of your own awesome pumpkin, give us a link in the comments!
