As adults, it can be envy-inducing when we see kids bringing home huge bags filled with candy and chocolate after a couple hours of gallivanting around the neighbourhood in their scariest costumes on Halloween.

Luckily, we have pumpkins, and as adults who are kids at heart, this means we can go to town when it comes to carving them.

So, we poked around the internet for creative pumpkin carving inspiration for 2017 and we have to say, we found some great ones.

Yep, Jack Skellington would approve.
