This beautiful pumpkin wrist tattoo design shapes the pumpkin cut out with the leaves almost like a cat, with the leaves functioning as ears and a bright big pink flower acting as its headband. Decorated within the background are more pink petals and candy sticks added to the essence of the festival.

The Jack o’ Lantern Pumpkin Coffee Tattoo
Among cartoon themed pumpkin tattoos, this kawaii-themed pumpkin tattoo design is surely a cutie. Featuring a coffee or teacup which is obviously pumpkin-shaped, with steaming hot brown drinks and two chocolate KitKat sticks, this tattoo is a classic mixture of Halloween and delicacies together. The only bright lights come out from the pumpkin’s eyes, which seems like two little light bulbs. The cup’s rimless, also rimmed in a pale green colour and surrounded with leaves, this cup gives off a spooky pumpkin Jack o’ Lantern vibe, along with the background in purplish-mauve smoke and impeccable dotwork that steal the show.
The Halloween Pumpkin-Head Tattoo
Among simple pumpkin tattoos, this cute little pumpkin tattoo design falls under a simplistic child carrying a little Jack o’ Lantern on top of his head! Inked in straight, smooth black and white lines, with intricately brilliant dotwork so insanely perfect, this pumpkin tattoo is ideal to be inked in the arm or legs. The little boy as well as the pumpkin he carries on his head look pretty identical, almost relating to cartoon-themed tattoos.
The Spooky Skeleton and Pumpkin Tattoo
We have another gigantic and realistic pumpkin tattoos at hand, with a brilliantly large skeleton holding out a Jacko Lantern cut out pumpkin, and a thousand screechy birds encircling around and above him, with a possibly visible moonlit bright night filled with stars. These tattoos are famous for being realistic in all senses and this one lives up to the mark. With the intensely deep design, even with black and white ink only, the fact that only the pumpkin is coloured in the deep fill of orange and black, is totally in oblivion. The detailing with needlework in the ribs, the smiling skeleton skull, and the bone structure shadings steal the show and is bound to be an attention-grabber for sure!
The Witch Hat Pumpkin Halloween Tattoo for Forearm
Among pumpkin tattoos, this spooky ghost-like smiling pumpkin tattoo on the arm is a funny little take on the celebration, with the smiling or angry (based on whatever you like!) pumpkin itself donning a witches’ hat, with deep black with their wings filled in black ink, decorated with pale green leaves and bright contrast with the yellow stars. The white shading on the lavender-like hat colour, with a green-white ribbon, is magnificently inked to give a three-dimensional effect.
The Hyperrealistic Halloween Jack o’ Lantern Pumpkin Tattoo
This arm sleeve tattoo steals the show for Halloween! With a hyper realistically accurate real-life representation of the pumpkin, the massively big vampiric bats, with a zoomed-in bat, flowers and leaves and heavy doses of ghosts-like vibes, this tattoo is out of the world. The zoomed-in bat, with its wings spread out behind the moon, flying without a care in the world is the ultimate showstopper here. The bright coloured ink chosen, like orange, pink, pale green and their subsequent shading with black ink, and splashes of ink for the moon and general background is truly a masterpiece by the tattoo artist.
The Classic Dark Style Pumpkin Tattoo
A medieval way of celebration, this tattoo, among pumpkin tattoos, features a beautifully designed sword piercing through the carved out Halloween pumpkin piece, with little hearts surrounding it. With a scary and threatening presence of evil, this tattoo follows that deep vibe with a deep black ink fill and detailed shading and gradient hue for the sword. However, adding customizable orange or red-based colours to this evil pumpkin can be way more fun and a little experiment that we would recommend! Ideal for the neck or the arm, this tattoo is a real goth vibe.
Be prepared to celebrate the spooky holiday this Fall with cute and at the same time evil Halloween pumpkin tattoos. These tattoos feature not only the archetypal Halloween pumpkins, but also bring with them the essence of Halloween itself- including the costumes, trick or treating, and even the animals related to it.
