Creepy anglerfish jack-o'-lantern takes pumpkin carving to a whole new level

Who wouldn't want to run into this in the deep sea?

Are you ready to get spooked?

A Redditor's daughter wanted a carved pumpkin shaped like her favorite animal, so u/Zmannum2 created this incredible anglerfish.

The anglerfish doesn't look like much in the daylight, but when the lights are off, its teeth and eyes eerily glow in the dark.

It's mildly terrifying, but mostly super cool. Trick or treaters will have a blast running into this carving.

The OP plans on revamping it to add a glowing lure, just like real anglerfish.
