What kind of face would be super terrifying carved into a pumpkin? A whole bunch of people decided it was the anglerfish. Between the internet and the movie Finding Nemo, we are somewhat familiar with the deep sea creature that lures prey by dangling a light in front of its face, while it prepares its many sharp teeth to consume any curious fish that draws near. Yes, there have been anglerfish Jack-o-Lanterns to admire every year, but in 2022, they seem more ferocious than ever. Danté Fenolio showed us his particularly toothy anglerfish Jack-o-Lantern.
@biodiversitynews This is my deepsea anglerfish pumpkin this year… I think it’s the best one that I have carved so far. #pumpkin #anglerfish #halloween #jackolantern

The response to his Twitter post about it revealed how popular this design was for Halloween 2022.
There's more than one way to make a pumpkin into an anglerfish.
The anglerfish also makes a scary Halloween costume.
