Rising Zombies Pumpkin Stencil
Two zombie figures rising from the ground face inward in this hard pumpkin stencil, their ragged arms reaching upward and their tattered lower bodies emerging from earth at the base of a tall oval negative space. The zombies read as solid orange silhouettes flanking a large central open oval, so the lit jack-o-lantern glows through that oval while the outstretched zombie arms and rotting fingers stand out in relief. Carve the finger details at the top of each arm before cutting the large central oval, as the fingers are the most fragile elements and benefit from the extra pumpkin mass still in place.
Zombies Pumpkin Stencil
The word "ZOMBIES" in dripping, horror-font letters anchors this stencil, with a row of grasping undead arms and hands rising above the text from a pool of slime below. All the negative space around the letters and arms is cut away, leaving the drip shapes and reaching fingers glowing against the pumpkin flesh. The thin drip strands between letters are the most fragile part of this carving, so cut each letter interior first and leave the connecting drips until the very end.
Zombie Hands Pumpkin Stencil
Two zombie arms thrust upward side by side on this zombie pumpkin stencil, each one emerging from a ragged torn sleeve at the base, with elongated bony fingers splayed wide and dripping flesh hanging from the wrists. The arms are the solid orange wall while the space around them is pierced away, so the pair of grasping hands glows against a dark background. The skinny finger tips are the most vulnerable pieces, so keep a finger pressed gently on each tip from the outside as you cut around it to prevent the thin point from breaking off.
Zombie Hand Pumpkin Stencil
A zombie hand clawing upward from the ground is the subject of this beginner zombie pumpkin stencil. The fingers are spread wide and elongated, separated by narrow solid bridges of pumpkin that keep each digit distinct when lit. A ragged cuff at the wrist and a puddle-like base anchor the composition at the bottom. The carved areas glow dramatically against the uncut pumpkin surface, suggesting a corpse emerging from the earth. Leave the slender bridges between the fingers for last so the hand shape stays supported while you remove the larger flanking areas.
Zombie with Skull Pumpkin Stencil
A tall zombie figure stands upright inside a large oval frame in this expert-level pumpkin stencil, one arm raised and holding a dripping severed skull. The body is rendered as a jagged silhouette of tattered flesh and clawed feet set against the solid oval background, while the skull dangling from the raised hand adds a second, smaller focal point within the composition. Because the zombie's body is a narrow silhouette surrounded by the large pierced oval, cut the oval background first and leave the figure's connection points at the base until last to keep the thin leg and claw details from breaking free prematurely.
Zombie with Chainsaw Pumpkin Stencil
A ragged zombie grips a chain-saw overhead while bursting through a set of vertical window bars on this expert zombie pumpkin stencil, its tattered body and grimacing face rendered in a detailed silhouette-plus-bridge style. The three vertical bar strips are the primary structural elements holding the upper and lower halves of the design together; do not cut them. Work from the outer edges of the figure inward, and carve the zombie's small face detail islands before removing the large surrounding body void.
Zombie Arm Pumpkin Stencil
A single decayed zombie arm reaches upward from the ground in this pumpkin stencil, the skeletal hand and bony fingers clawing into empty space while the forearm and sleeve taper to a ragged ground line at the base. The design is mostly one large connected negative-space cut with thin solid bridges defining the sleeve folds and individual finger bones. Cut the individual finger separations before releasing the large arm opening so the fingertips stay supported until the end.
Walking Zombie Pumpkin Stencil
A stick-thin zombie figure lurches forward in mid-stride on this easy pumpkin stencil: arms outstretched and ragged, mouth open, body leaning with one leg lifted and tattered coat hem trailing behind. The silhouette is carved almost entirely as one connected void, with only a few narrow bridges at the coat flaps defining the outline against the solid pumpkin. Because the figure is tall and narrow, center it vertically on the pumpkin face and cut the wide torso section before the spindly arm extensions to avoid flexing the skin.
Zombie Jack-o-Lantern Pumpkin Stencil
A zombie jack-o-lantern face built from two large ringed eyes with small round pupils, curved eyebrows, tiny paired nose holes, and a wide rectangular mouth filled with jagged uneven teeth above and below. The bulging eyes retain orange rings between the outer circle and pupil circle, creating a wild, spinning stare when lit. The two circular eye rings are floating islands that must be secured; after cutting each outer eye circle, press the ring from the inside so it sits flush before removing the surrounding pumpkin section.
Zombie Figure Pumpkin Stencil
A gaunt zombie figure lurches upright in this jack-o-lantern pumpkin stencil, its hollow skull face and long clawed fingers pierced through while ragged, tattered robes form the solid silhouette below. Scattered debris fragments float around the body as isolated cut-out shapes, creating an eerie sense of motion when lit. Carve the small floating fragments last, using a narrow detail blade to keep each piece from cracking away from the main composition.
