The votes are in for our Pumpkin Carving Contest, and here’s the jack-o’-lantern we’ve crowned cream of the carving crop.

The winning pumpkin was submitted by our reader Gina H. and titled “Krinch: The Frightmare before Xmas.” We love the creativity and attention to detail of this jack-o'-lantern, from the teeth to the eyeballs to the Santa hat. Plus, it’s pretty spooky.

“On Hallow’s Eve, he lurks about, so Trick or Treaters had better watch out,” Gina included in her submission.

Thank you to all of our readers who submitted their gourd-geous carved pumpkins. It was hard to only pick one.
