Geeky Halloween Jack-O-Lantern Patterns

Just in time for tomorrow’s spooky big day, I found some fabulous pumpkin carving templates with a dash of geeky flair, and a side of Joss.

That’s right – Firefly-inspired jack-o-lanterns. Aw yeah.

From the PinkRaygun, I present for your geek-out pleasure – Halloween Pumpkin Carving Templates. There are 9 patterns for Firefly, one for each character, and 3 bonus patterns for characters from another short-lived TV series, Heroes.

PinkRaygun also offers a lovely archive of pumpkin carving patterns, including patterns for The Silence from Doctor Who, Rorsharch from the Watchmen, Star Trek: The Original Series (ST: TOS, for those in the know), and this fantastic Wonder Woman pattern.

What geeky jack-o-lanterns are you planning (or have you carved in the past)?

Happy Halloween, geek-crafters!

    Ooooh! I want myself a firefly pumpkin design. Tough decision though, Wash or Malc? Or I could buy 2 pumpkins. =)

    Some space geek friends of mine and I had a Space-O-Lantern carving night a week or so ago. I carved a Yuri GagarKin & friends carved space shuttles and even Wernher von Braun pumpkin. We were inspired by our friend and scientist for the International Space Station, Liz Warren, who carves amazing space shuttle patch pumpkins: http://www.flickr.com/photos/spasmunkey/sets/72157623615058670/with/4430316755/

    We had so much fun, we decided there needed to be a World Wide Space-O-Lantern Carving Day on the last Friday before Halloween. You can read more about it here: http://averagejanecrafter.blogspot.com/2011/10/today-is-first-ever-world-wide-space-o.html

    I also helped my son create a Pikachu pumpkin for school. :)
