2013 Halloween Pumpkin Carving Contest

2013 Halloween Pumpkin Carving Contest

The Halloween season has finally arrived, and we're ready to cut straight to the heart of the holiday.

If you're dying to pick up a knife and hack, gash, slash, and jab at something (in true Diablo style), then you might be excited to hear that as of Thursday, October 17 Blizzard's 2013 Halloween Pumpkin Carving Contest has officially begun! Unleash your magical axes, psi blades, chitinous claws, and other creative cutlery to carve up Blizzard-themed jack-o'-lanterns of epic awesomeness. If you're unclear as to what epic awesomeness looks like in the flesh, you can check out last year's winners for some inspiration (we've highlighted a few of our favorites below).

We'll choose five of the grandest Cucurbita to earn one (1) Diablo III: Book of Tyrael. Don't delay; start carving right away! The eleventh annual pumpkin carving contest ends on October 29, so be sure to check out the contest page for rules and eligibility and get straight to slicing.
