We all know that Halloweens are never complete without pumpkin carving activities. As a matter of fact, this tradition dates back to the early 19th century in Ireland. It’s just back then, Irish people used turnips and potatoes instead of pumpkins. After over a century later, this practice still remains relevant these days. Now, instead of the typical creepy face, people have come up with other “scary” things to carve on these pumpkins. And we’re pretty sure that these carvings will leave all adults out there chilling to the bones.
