NIGHT 16 OF 31

Pumpkins

The giant pumpkin night. Everything else on the calendar is jealous.

COSTUME

Orange, round if you want, a stem hat if you dare.

ACCESSORIES

A small uncarved pumpkin you are responsible for.

DECORATIONS

The ground disappears under pumpkins. Carved ones are lit. Whole ones are still fruit.

ATMOSPHERE

The giant pumpkin night. Everything else on the calendar is jealous.

FOOD

Soup, seeds, bread, a cake that is actually pumpkin and admits it.

DRINK

Warm pumpkin with milk and spice, in a thick cup.

MUSIC

A low drum and people knocking spoons, which should not work.

ACTIVITIES

Carve if you know how. If you do not, polish one and give it a name.

THE PARTY

Lighting hour. Every carved face comes on in a wave, not a jump.

AFTER DARK

The field of faces is the party. You walk between them.

OF THIS OCTOBER

Nia names hers and will not carve. Rafi’s face is traditional and slightly wonky. Of this October.

EVENTS

  • Name a whole pumpkin
  • Lighting hour
  • Seed salt at the stall

A FRAME, IF YOU WANT ONE

You among hundreds of glowing pumpkins at a mountain festival, orange clothes, a small whole pumpkin in your arms, dusk, no text.

STALL

Stem hat

Felt, ridiculous, warm. The cheapest way to be a pumpkin.
