How to Carve a Ghost Pumpkin for Halloween

  • Make a hole at the bottom of the pumpkin. Begin by tracing a circle with the knife, which will help you stay on point while carving the hole
  • Then empty the innards using a sharp spoon or ladle. Make sure to scrape every bit of pulp, seeds, and fibrous strands
  • Set it on a plate or flat surface and begin drawing sheet ghost patterns on the pumpkin
  • While carving the ghosts, make sure only to peel the skin of the gourd within the outlines
  • Once the ghosts are ready, punch two holes for eyes
  • Next, put in some string lights through the hole in the bottom and light it up
