    Terrifying Tips
    Place the pumpkin in a tub of cold water. If the pumpkin has already been carved, place it face down. Let the insides fill with water. The pumpkin will absorb the water and become very firm. If you have fine detail to carve, let your pumpkin soak overnight to firm the flesh up and allow you to do intricate carving.

    Once carved, a jack-o-lantern won’t last more that a few days before beginning to dry out and shrivel.

    To extend the life of your ghoulish masterpiece, brush lemon juice on the carved areas to help slow down the natural molding process. Coat the exposed areas with a layer of petroleum jelly such as Vaseline, or white glue. Use your fingers for large openings, and a cotton swab for tiny and delicate areas. This will seal in the moisture, extending its life to a week or more.
