Pumpkins aren't just for carving, although I do love roasted pumpkin seeds and carving does require that you dig them out. But instead of carving, I like to create pumpkin heads, some what reminiscent of Mr. Potato Head.
First I gather my "surgical instruments."

Then I collect my body parts. I dug them up from the garden, of course.

Now I just need my subjects.

| S-s-su-sub-jects (gulp). |
After a bit of experimentation, my pumpkin heads come to life.

Jeepers creepers where'd ya get those peepers?
All ready to greet our trick and treaters. I think Mr. Pumpkin Head has his eye on Mrs. Pumpkin Head (wink, wink).
