PUMPKIN MAN
🕑 Added 2023-10-10 18:00:27 +0000 UTCCongratulations! You are one of the cool kids who gets to see PUMPKIN MAN a day before the rest of the world.
SPOILERS BELOW:
My brother Jakey shot this whole thing on Sunday. I had a very hard time securing a child so I offered the role of father and son to Jon and Asa, respectively. Eric tagged along as an extra pair of hands, but we got a call late into the afternoon that Asa could no longer attend. Eric, being the hero that he is, stepped up to the plate and into some jammies.
This should be streaming on Spotify (and hopefully everywhere else) tonight at midnight. I'll post the video around 10 am tomorrow morning. Please give my algorithms the sweet attention it craves in hopes this might take off!
In the meantime, AMA about PUMPKIN MAN!

This is badass, Nick!!!! Not that I'm surprised 🎃 Love it ❤️
H Ross
Holy shit I love this!!! Move over, Nightmare Before Christmas. There's a new Pumpkin King in town.
Erica Sabo
Where can I buy one of those cards??

Did you manage to sell any "pictures with pumpkin man" before being asked to leave?
Cece
Ditto to what everyone else said, will have to add that I love the excessive taping of the Ask Me About Pumpkin Man sign. Did we establish that the pumpkin seed slurry is diarrhea? Or is it vomit? Or just his slimy leavings?
Brielle Garcia
Amazing! And Eric’s versatility is always impressive
Robert McGrath
Pumpkin Man is the new Halloween franchise we need. No way a shotgun keeps him down I look forward to next year and Pumpkin Man: Resurrection.
Scott Baker
Can we expect some Pumpkin Man merch in the future?
Jose Lechuga
Great song creating the Pumpkin Man lore and such an AMAZING accompanying video. Bravo everyone! And Nick "rescuing" pumpkins he finds on the "streets" in a ski mask is everything Halloween is about. Thanks for this!
Molly Rosen
What an iconic final shot that will go down in cinema history
Nicholas Lutsko
Yup!
Shannon Strucci
when I heard the sound effect at the end of the earlier version of the song I wondered if that was how pumpkin man would go out. I was not disappointed. incredible video
Cooley
Was that Northgate Mall in the video?
Cooley
Oh. HELL. YUP!
Scot Burklin
I have no words beyond absolutely amazing. I never thought I would spend today pondering animated pumpkin diarrhea, yet here we are.

I am so happy with how this turned out! And you nearly took my idea of putting Eric in a propeller beanie and giving him a lollipop
Nicholas Lutsko
I believe ears are canon, as I drew him with ears on most of the pamphlets
Todd Christiansen
Loved the song already, the video is next level. Great stuff!
Сергей Август
The biggest question is the following: We see IRL Pumpkin Man without ears and CG Pumpkin Man with ears. Which one is the canon version? (Silly questions aside, great video, especially for such a short filming period, good job, complements the song nicely!)
Nicholas Lutsko
Craft pumpkins!
Malachi Smith
This was one hell of a ride

this is absolutely incredible 😭😭 props to eric for stepping up to the role as the kid as well!! this is EXACTLY what i imagined for this video. an ‘acid trip’ through a strange reality filled with bright visuals and chaotic pumpkins 😭 (did not expect pumpkin man to get brutally murdered though, rest in pieces) wonderful job on the video, and i love the song as well! 🎃❤️

Did the costume smell bad with all of those pumpkins? I assume they were hollowed out.
Craig K
Incredible!
Dan Pawlak
Epic.
