1. Witch on a Left-Brushed Broom

A witch in a pointed hat rides her broom across the pumpkin, cloak trailing and broom bristles brushed out to the left as one bold glowing silhouette. The entire figure is cut through as a single connected opening, so the drama comes from the outline rather than fine interior detail. For this medium carve, start with the big body mass and work outward, cutting the hat point and individual bristle tips last so the surrounding rind supports your blade the whole way.

A tall witch hat with a jauntily bent tip glows from the pumpkin, its wide oval brim carved as a separate opening beneath the crown so the solid hatband reads as a dark stripe between them. Around the hat, small circles and diamonds sparkle like scattered magic. This medium design hinges on that hatband bridge; cut the crown and brim as two independent openings and never saw across the band, then finish with the little sparkle shapes using a drill and detail knife.
See template β3. Cauldron and Three Bubbles

A round-bellied witch's cauldron with side handles and little legs, carved as one big glowing cutout, while three round bubble holes rise above the rim like escaping brew. Everything cuts fully through, so the pot blazes and the bubbles float as bright dots. One of the easiest spooky designs going; punch the three bubbles first, then saw the cauldron body in sections, leaving the handle nubs attached to the main opening.
See template β4. Bent Crown and Broad Brim

A classic witch hat fills the pumpkin face, its tall crown bending over at the tip above a broad, gently curved brim. The whole hat is removed as one pierced piece, making a big bright silhouette with no interior details to fuss over. As an easy single-cut design, just keep your blade angled slightly inward as you saw so the large panel pulls free without wedging.
See template β5. Three-Plume Steaming Cauldron

A bubbling witch's cauldron sends three curling plumes of steam up the pumpkin's face, all rendered in carved shading rather than pierced holes. You shave the skin to different depths so the pot, bubbles, and smoke glow in layered tones while the wall stays fully intact. Work the steam swirls shallow and the cauldron mouth deepest to get that lit-from-within brew effect.
See template β6. Witch Profile & Clawed Hands

A wicked witch in profile fills a glowing full-moon circle, her pointed hat, hooked nose, jutting chin, and two gnarled clawed hands all left in silhouette against the light. The moon disc is cut through around her, so every detail depends on the pumpkin you leave behind. This expert design demands patience: remove the background in small wedges and never lever your blade against the thin fingers, which are the most fragile part.
See template β7. Witch with Flaming 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.
See template β8. Witch Silhouette with Broom 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.
See template β9. Witch and Cat on Broomstick 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.

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.
See template β11. Starry Witch 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.

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.
See template β13. 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.
See template β14. Witch on Moon Pumpkin Stencil

A large crescent moon shape is carved away to create a sweeping dark arc on this easy Halloween pumpkin stencil, and within that negative space a witch's profile appears in silhouette: a pointed hat, hooked nose, and grasping claw-like fingers reaching downward. A cluster of three small rectangular slots and a jagged hat-brim notch provide the only additional cut elements. The cropped hat top is a floating island; secure it with a toothpick before you make the final crescent arc cut so it doesn't drop and crack the brim.
See template β15. Bubbling 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.
