Some people like to take Halloween to a whole new level and create works of art out of their pumpkins like master pumpkin carver Ray Villefane. Every year during this spooky time of year, Villefane gathers some extra-large pumpkins and goes to work making incredible sculptures out of them. This year, he decided to create a life-sized zombie for Botanical Gardens in New York City.
This amazing pumpkin sculpture would definitely win any pumpkin carving contest out there. It's remarkably realistic due to Villefane's attention to detail. The giant sculpture was made from three extra-large pumpkins and a couple of regular-sized ones.
