Well here he is, "THE PUMPKIN MAN"! This is the costume my wife and I came up with for Halloween. I won 1st place in one contest and finished in the top ten in 2 other. You should have seen the reactions I was getting, Priceless. Just seeing people smile and run away sometimes,LOL, was worth it. So what do you think? I really want to know what my fellow UMA brothers and sisters think about it. >:D

having a natural fondness for jack-o-lanterns, I love this costume. Unique, whimsical and yet terrifying all in a swoop.
That is Fang-tastic! I is so awesome!
I'm a big fan of evil pumpkins. If I'm not mistaken that mask is Pumpkin Rot combined with Tree Witch Hands. I have the hands attached to a half body evil scarecrow called Mr. Grim. Don't have That mask but have a few others. Your costume is well put together but highly nonfunctional at a party. Glad ya had a great time and scared some people. That's half the fun of Halloween. Wondering how you were able to see. Most of the cool masks nowadays make vision whilst walking a chore and are really for display.The hands are a bit of a bitch getting on and off. Did you use talc powder? If you do this one again next year you may want to wear this mask instead. I own 2 of them. One for show and one for wear. Vision wise it is so good I was chasing kids down the street last year. >:D

I shall have to photograph my collection of evil pumpkin masks.
Awesome Monsternutt! Even the photo looks amazing! Whoever took this picture knew what they were doing, everything looks so beautifully framed. That costume will be hard to top next year :) I also love evil pumpkin faces- this is kinda eesy compared to your level of craftsmanship, but I buy those cheap happy $5 scarecrows and rip off their heads and replace them with my evil pumpkins that I've had for years- and finally, I put hanger wire along the shoulders to pose the cornstalk arms in more menacing positions. It's an easy yard filler! The Pumpkin Man is the true King of Halloween, and I hope to someday see your Pumpkin Castle! Next Project!
Very classic in a creepy pumpkin way. And scary like no other scarecrow I can think of!

I have one of those as well. Pumpkin Rot mask is very hard to see out of, but it was worth wearing it. And yes I use powder for the hands.They worked great,only down side was could not hold my LONG ISLAND! LOL. I had so many people staring me it was great. Going next year as Jeepers Creepers. Already started on it. Boy, I'm a big kid. >:D
Well done Monsternutt! I would buy that as a prop!

That's COOL! >:D
I goggled "tree witch hands" and couldn't locate them anywhere. re they something older and no longer available?
(I'm actually searching for left and right forearm/hands for making a Ghostbusters slimer.)
I looked at what local halloween offerings we had here, but it was slim pickings, with nothing really fitting the bill properly.
