and yet she's STILL TERRIFYING HAHA. I will only now respond to my new title, Procurer of Nightmare Pumpkins, thank you very much.
Welp... I tried. I thought my Pumpkin-head mask from last year could use some sprucing up and a new time period, and I think I was somewhat successful on one of those accounts?
ENJOYYY.

rachel: she's kinda creepy

I second everyone who's saying that this is firmly in the not-creepy camp. It feels like it's exactly what it's supposed to be, having come from the coziest little glen in the Uncanny Valley. Though Rachel truly is a master of horror: showing the step-by-step process of condemning pumpkin head lady to eternal silence by slowly sealing over her mouth.

YESSS CURSED CONTENT IS MY FAVORITE

Never related to anything more in my life than "Autumn is a state of mind." and Rachel squinting at her creation asking "Are you ugly?"

Rachel she is NOT nightmare fuel she is absolutely adorable and I love her freckles and her little smile! So serene and joyful, just going about her pumpkin-lady business <3

I think she turned out adorable and that skirt is lovely!

“I swear I’m not making nightmare fuel on purpose. I tried to make her cute.”

I found her quite charming! You worked hard on it and it showed. No nightmare fuel here. :)

the lumpiness is honestly pretty accurate to real pumpkins when they get really big. also side note that hat looks sooo pretty

Rachel: I'm trying to make her less creepy.
Also Rachel: Let's do the reveal in a cemetery!
Imagine you're visiting you loved one's grave and this walks around the corner lol <3

I love her! Yes, she’s a bit scary but in the cutest possible way.

The first version is like a teenage pumpkin girl, worried that her lumps won’t go away when she’s older, and this one is when she’s out of that awkward growing phase and becomes a lady... and comes to terms with the lumps.

"Once September hits, Autumn Rachel will rise from her tomb" - Rachel I say this as an autumn lover and strong supporter of autumn content: Autumn Rachel literally never goes INTO the tomb, thus she cannot come out. Also happy september and this pumpkin was adorable, why do you hate her <3

As a bonafide Constant Reader, I rate Victoria as "not creepy." She was creepier before with her toothy smile. Love Morgan's skirt pattern, your choice of colors (only a hint of brown) and the execution (creepy choice of word intended) of said skirt. The hat came out really well. It's a Sunday goin' to meetin' hat. The total look...Italian kiss.

"You are adequate." - Rachel Maksy, 2021

Pumpkin Lady is 99% adorable and 1% creepy and that's exactly the recipe for my aesthetic. 100% approved.

“Good morning, you look…cursed.” - what I say to myself every morning when I look in the mirror.

I love how she turned out! She looks so pleased with herself and the fact she’s about to kill us all. 😂🎃🖤

Suddenly I understand why all those vintage Victorian costumes are nightmare fuel. They weren't trying to make them scary, there's just no way to make them cute.

@WithLoveKristina 5 years ago

She is simultaneously the cutest and most terrifying thing, and I really wanted to see some footage of you startling passers-by. And tbh Tim Burton continuously makes both cute and terrifying things so like... I love it?

@gagirl1231 5 years ago

She looks extremely cute and is giving me Over the Garden Wall vibes! She looks like an established older Victorian lady with her cute little curly stems peeking out of the hat and everything!

@KGlena-kx1df 5 years ago

She’s still cute, not everyone can be smooth skinned and skinny faced, heck yes for unretouched realistic expectations for all pumpkinpeople!!I also feel like this could be in those ‘Glow-up transformation’ lists showing the awkward kid years and growing up into better style as adult 😁
