10 DIY Witch Pumpkin Faces

Explore 10 distinct diy witch pumpkin faces from the stencil library.

1. Howling Wolf Moon Pumpkin Stencil
A wolf howling at a large crescent-shaped moon fills this hard pumpkin stencil, with a trio of jagged pine trees to the left and the wolf's body set as a solid orange silhouette inside the open pierced moon arc. The moon itself is the glowing background that frames the wolf and trees, while the animal and pines remain as uncut pumpkin skin. When carving the pine tree segments, cut each zigzag branch notch one at a time using a small detail blade, since the tight repeated angles along the tree edges are easy to over-cut and merge into a single straight line.

2. Witch with Staff Pumpkin Stencil
A robed witch figure stands holding a tall staff topped with a flame in this expert pumpkin stencil, her pointed hat bearing a spiral curl at the tip and wisps of energy trailing her cloak and pooling at her feet. The design reads as a solid silhouette with strategic interior cuts for the face, flame, and cloak detail, so candlelight halos the entire figure while the fine interior strips glow separately. Keep the narrow bridge connecting the flame to the staff intact until last, as it is the most likely point to snap under blade pressure.

3. Witch Silhouette Pumpkin Stencil
A full-length witch silhouette fills this jack-o-lantern pumpkin stencil: pointed hat, flowing robes, and a broomstick are all rendered as pierced cut-through shapes, with the surrounding robe fabric left as solid orange pumpkin wall. On the lit pumpkin the broomstick and cloaked figure read as glowing orange forms against a dark background. The witch's hat brim is a narrow horizontal bridge; cut that piece last and work inward from the wider robe sections to keep it from snapping under tool pressure.

4. Witch on Broomstick Moon Pumpkin Stencil
A classic Halloween silhouette of a witch on a broomstick crossing a full moon fills this pumpkin stencil. The large circle is carved out as a single open pierce, leaving the witch and cat riding the broom as raised orange pumpkin forms within the glowing moon. Wisps of hair or cloak stream behind the figure, and a black cat perches at the broom's tip. Because the witch's streaming hair separates into narrow strips, cut those final wisps with a fine detail blade and work from the broom tip toward the figure to avoid breaking them.

5. Witch on Broomstick Moon Pumpkin Stencil
A witch on a broomstick flies across a full moon in this expert pumpkin stencil, her pointed hat, flowing robes, and broom bristles silhouetted against a circular background of ragged cloud cutouts. The witch figure is solid orange skin set against the large glowing moon disc, and the cloud tears around the moon's edge are pierced through. Carve the small jagged cloud tears around the moon perimeter first, then carefully outline the witch silhouette, leaving her as an uncut island of skin inside the open moon.

6. Witch on Moon Pumpkin Stencil
A tall oval moon dominates this hard witch pumpkin stencil, with a thin vertical broomstick cutting through the center and a small witch figure silhouetted at the bottom, surrounded by four-pointed star cutouts. The moon is carved as a large open oval, so the broom handle remains as a solid pumpkin bridge crossing the glow. Stars scattered inside and outside the moon add sparkling pinhole light around the scene. Cut the large moon oval first to establish the dominant glow, but do not sever the broomstick bridge at the center until the very last pass.

7. Vampire Face Pumpkin Stencil
A close-up vampire face dominates this witch-category pumpkin stencil, featuring wide circular eyes with small pupils, a widow's-peak hairline, swept-back collar wings, and a gaping mouth with prominent fangs. The large open areas of the eyes, collar, and mouth are pierced through, while the face itself stays solid so the features read clearly when lit. Cut the two eye circles first to anchor your registration, then work outward to the collar wings before tackling the mouth and fang gaps.

8. Witch Silhouette Pumpkin Stencil
A full-length witch figure stands in this expert pumpkin stencil, crowned by a tall pointed hat with a wide brim, her long flowing robes splitting into jagged tapered strips that trail toward the ground, bony fingers extending from her sleeves, and a curling decorative element at the hem. The design is built from many narrow vertical cut-through strips separated by very thin orange bridges, giving the finished carving an almost lace-like quality when lit. Work from the hat point downward, cutting each robe strip individually before widening cuts near the base where the shapes are broader.

9. Witch Hat Pumpkin Stencil
This witch-hat pumpkin stencil reduces the classic Halloween icon to its boldest shapes: a wide, wavy brim in two swooping cut-out bands, a trapezoidal crown, and a tight spiral curl at the hat's tip. The large open areas mean the design reads clearly even on a small pumpkin, and the lit result is a silhouette-style hat floating against glowing orange. Cut the lower brim band first, then the upper brim, and finally the crown, so the spiral finial stays supported until the end.

10. Witch Cauldron Pumpkin Stencil
A round-bellied witch's cauldron sits on a small tripod base while a large plume of swirling smoke and flame rises above it, branching into curling tendrils with scattered circular bubble cutouts floating free in this witch pumpkin stencil. The cauldron interior is a large open void, the smoke tendrils are narrow pierced ribbons, and each bubble is a tiny individual circle punched through the skin. Cut the cauldron body first, then remove the larger smoke ribbons; leave the small bubble circles for last and use a round drill bit or small gouge to keep them clean.
