Pumpkin carving has evolved into a minor league sport in recent years. Thanks to the advent of social media, everyone can share their pumpkin creations and propose one carving is better than the other. And every year the It pop culture icons of the years serve as inspiration for carvings. This year the It icon is, well, the movie It. Specifically Pennywise the clown is THE Halloween pumpkin carving this year.
