And finally our grand prize for most creative pumpkin goes to Nick Everson for his Halo: Reach Haunted Helmet! Not only is it a great design, but it looks awesome when it’s on fire! I guess that particular haunted helmet belongs to someone at Bungie?
Our runners-up prizes for most creative go to Nick and Molly for their uniquely lit Pacman and Ghosts, and Daniel Potvin for The Original Ghost Pump-kemon that features everyone’s three favorite original ghost Pokémon (and a creatively painted Pokeball!) Well done, and congrats again to everyone for making this a fantastic 3rd Halloween carving contest!

Official song description: “While Ke$ha’s song ‘TiK ToK’ extols the love one slut has for a night of drinking and parties and clubbing, conversely, ‘DiG DuG’ extols one nerd’s love for classic video games and arcades. The dicotomy is staggering.”
A little tune by Insane Ian, a guy I met at InterventionCon!
