Product Description

Pumpkins are supposed to be scary!

Based on his popular and addictive website ExtremePumpkins.com, Tom Nardone has created a full-color guide to pumpkin carving that's truly frightening. Featuring the website's signature Puking Pumpkin, and spanning everything from Drowning Pumpkin, Crime Scene Pumpkin, and Cannibal Pumpkin to Electrocuted Pumpkin and other never-before-seen designs, this gleefully gory guide is nothing short of a manifesto to take back Halloween from the cheerful, the cutesy, and the parent-sanctioned. For the egg-throwing, toilet tissue-streaming, window-soaping teenager in all of us, finally- a whole new way to celebrate October 31.

About the Author

Tom Nardone is the founder of ExtremePumpkins.com, and is single-handedly reclaiming Halloween with his shocking, funny, and vivid pumpkin designs. He lives in Michigan, with his long-suffering family.

5.0 out of 5 stars dude....this book is totally freakin' awesome, September 10, 2007
This review is from: Extreme Pumpkins: Diabolical Do-It-Yourself Designs to Amuse Your Friends and Scare Your Neighbors (Paperback)
Not only has this book enabled me to hold onto my position as the neighborhood maniac, it has given me new insight on how to carve pumpkins more efficiently, spookily, and with greater ease. Mr. Nardone is quite the cut up, and this book made me chuckle unendingly. The directions are simple, the layout is handy, and I find the photographs both detailed and quite artistic.
p.s. This book is also quite inexpensive, so buying multiples of it doesn't pinch my pocketbook! Yowza!

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this book by Halloween and carve the coolest pumpkins in your neighborhood, October 18, 2007
This review is from: Extreme Pumpkins: Diabolical Do-It-Yourself Designs to Amuse Your Friends and Scare Your Neighbors (Paperback)
This is the most creative, creepy and hilarious example of the pumpkin carving art ever published. We pay homage by stealing Tom's ideas: imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right? If only we could wield a reciprocating saw with the same artistic precision.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great if You're Into GORE!, November 25, 2008
By Loveguitar (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I like some of the pumpkins in this book, but most are just too gory or sick for me to even think about creating. I like, "Cannibal Pumpkin", "Property Defender Pumpkin", "Road Kill Eating Pumpkin", and "Conjoined Twins Pumpkins" (although I could do a much better one than the one shown in the book). The others were either too gross, sick or simply lame. "Moldy Beard Pumpkin" was just a rotten pumpkin. "Drowning in a Bag Pumpkin" was just too sick - it's just too sick.

But, the book definitely awakens new ideas in my imagination, and I can create some super cool pumpkins of my own. This book doesn't come with patterns, but has very good explanations of how to create the pumpkins, what tools to use, vivid photographs of each pumpkin creation, and will your sick/gross pumpkin merit a call from the neighborhood association president.
