Instead of carving a pumpkin LIKE A SUCKER next year, how about growing a really cool Frankenstein pumpkin?

A farmer in Fillmore, California, has figured out a way to grow pumpkins in a mold that makes them look just like Frankenstein's monster. They're tall, narrow, and have the monster face molded right into them.

It took him four years and $500,000 to get these pumpkins right. They're sold out on his website right now but grocery stores around the world are importing them.  I don't know if there are any in stores around Sioux Falls but they run at least $100 each.

Tony is working on a new mold now for pumpkins that look like a Jolly Roger-type pirate . . . those will be on sale next Halloween.
