This 'n That Thursdays: Weird and Wonderful Jack O' Lanterns

The ever-popular puking pumpkin!

Let's take a break from all things supernaturally nautical this week and look at some wickedly creative jack o' lanterns instead.  From the sublime to the sickening, these transmogrified gourds are just amazing!  See for yourself, starting with the weird:

With so many pumpkins from my very first pumpkin patch this year, I may actually carve my own jack o' lantern, but I doubt that I could ever be creative enough to come up with a design as unique as any of the ones here!  There is, however, one jack o' lantern design that is just too frightening to even contemplate recreating:
