Meet Grin.
One pumpkin. Carved out of the dark, lit from the inside, and not even slightly orange.
Somebody took a classic evil jack-o'-lantern and swapped the candle for something that glows chartreuse. The thing woke up. Now it sits on the chart, fangs out, grinning at every candle that moves.
Green candle? The grin gets wider. Red candle? He cackles anyway. heh heh heh
Spooky season is a month. Grin didn't get the memo.

How to carve a Grin
Follow the dotted lines. Do not skip the fangs.
- 1
Triangle eyes
Two sharp cuts, angled in. No pupils. He sees you anyway.
- 2
The nose notch
One small triangle. It's there so the glow has somewhere to breathe.
- 3
Zigzag fangs
Pointed, never rounded. If it looks friendly, you cut it wrong. Start over.
- 4
The stem
Leave it on. Dark, curled, a little twisted. Like the rest of him.
- 5
Light it
No candle. Neon yellow-green, #C2FF1A, bleeding out of every cut edge. That's the glow-up.

Trick or treat?
There's a pumpkin on the porch and the door's ajar. Knock. See what he gives you.
heh heh heh
carved once, lit forever, still haunting your group chat.
