The boys terrified whines made this unnerving

Hearing the sudden shift in attitude and time is so unsettling. The fact that the boy doesn't reemerge in the end is worse. ...Jack Stauber is a *genius*

The truly terrifying part is realizing that the pumpkin is smiling the whole time not because he’s having a good time with the kid, but because he’s thinking about what he’s about to do to the kid

What I love about this is that at no point does the kid attempt to run, even once his teeth falls out. He is still transfixed by the pumpkin song, showing that he knows he's doomed, but he cannot pry himself away from the almost hypnotic gaze. It speaks to our comfort with things that change our perception of time, even when these things are killing us.

I love how the pumpkin doesn’t even have any trace of remorse or guilt and his tone doesn’t change at all

Someone making me blind legit sounds more terrifying than being stabbed

What a kind pumpkin, remembering to feed his cat😊

I love how creepy this is. In the end it gives you this sense of anxiety. It just shows the cabin in the woods. The pumpkin is always smiling and seems like he enjoys doing this. The wind blowing in the beginning adds the perfect ambience. The pumpkin knows what it's doing and doesn't have any remorse or regret after saying he will feed the child to his cat as well as making him go blind and making his teeth fall out. The pumpkin knows that nothing will happen to him even after killing possibly multiple children before this. Everyone will just give up looking for the child after he is nowhere to be found for years. The animation style is perfect for this song because it feels like an old horror movie.

After several rewatches, I’m starting to think this pumpkin is not so fun to hang out with.

I love the pumpkin’s voice, I need more songs sang in his voice!!! Seriously it’s so eerily enchanting

i think the message may be: -to watch after your children. once their gone, theres not that much hope left for them. -that the nicest/most chilled people could also be the bad ones, that end up destroying you. -that no one is save of pumpkins with a smile that lasts even after hes done horrible things to some child.

He don't protecc But he attacc But most importantly He make boards go rat-tat-tat

Absolutely terrifying to think that he makes time feel slower, so you have to endure those other tortures for even longer...

imagine not knowing who jack is and you stumble upon this like "aww so cute" and then it just turns into a horror fest

The way he depicts the blindness in such a way has an unsettling look to it which is subtle but is very chilling and noticeable. Good job Jack!

Truly an inspiring song about never trusting strangers.

Child: **is being tortured by a supposed pumpkin god** The floor boards: 💃🕺💃🕺💃💃🕺

Jack's done 3d animation, claymation, his own style of animation recorded through a VHS tape somehow, pixel animation and now the old cartoon style? A true madman

I like how unnerving Staubers stuff can be, it’s unsettling and in a good way. The kid looks panicked and the pumpkin is enjoying what he’s doing to this kid. And the singing. It’s creepy but in that good way

I have a theory, from other comments. The theory is that the pumpkin is a metaphor for drugs, in which the kid entering the pumpkin's house is like using drugs. At first, the pumpkin is being nice/ the euphoric effect of substances. Then, it starts harming him (the child). And eventually, the child is way too harmed by the harmful effects that he passes away. Or it could be the pumpkin is a literal demon that hunts children that wonder unto his house.

The moral of the story is: Don’t trust sentient pumpkins

very unsettling, made me very unsettled. 11/10

Could we talk about he has a cat? A person saw a pumpkin with a face buy a cat and didn't think anything of it.

Bro just wants to feed his cat 💀

The fact that he doesn’t come out of the house is the scariest part

This is low key amazing. The art gives you the old vibe, the voice makes you calm but the lyrics make you uncomfortable, what a genius!

He don’t protect He attack But most importantly He makes the boards go ra-ta-tat

Theory: every tooth in the pumpkin's mouth is from a kid who he took the teeth from.

That relatable moment when you get into a house in the woods and meet a singing pumpkin who so happens to be the devil's reincarnate that wants to feed you to his cats.

Bro just smiles the entire time... Jack is a genius

stranger things: 🙄 STAUBER THINGS: 😩

The new cuphead boss looks great

Jesus this is terrifying but I can't stop replaying it

i love the wow at start

i love how its styled as a 1920s-1940s cartoon, even tho it was made in 2018

Brilliant as usual

The kid is forgetting about the one advantage he has for being as blind as a bat now. Echolocation.

Jack Stauber is so different. It is truly amazing how different and fun and creative his songs are. 👏

Ladies, if your man: Can make the lights go out Make the floorboards go rat-tat-tat Make the world seem slower And tickle your nose That’s not your man, that’s a sentient pumpkin, and you should probably run.

I'm gonna throw this on an old hard drive and leave it in a park

The kid: HEEEELP AAAAAAAA Floorboard:🕺

"holy crap lois, this is worse than the time a speaking pumpkin made me go blind!"

The way the pumpkin said “come in, come in” without a trace of a sinister tone makes this that much more unsettling

Always glad to see a caring cat owner

It is how fast the child's demise happens that baffles me.

moral of the story: *never trust a smiling pumpkin that can tickle noses*

Imagine finding this on an old VHS tape, buried at the bottom of a dusty box that hadn't been opened for decades...

Wow what a different style from your regular videos, but still feels like a good old Stauber upload, love it.

how kind of the pumpkin to remove the teeth before feeding his cat so the cat wouldn't choke :D

Maybe this is a way of saying don't go in unknown Houses or cabins because anything can happen be careful who you talk to and anything can be dangerous be careful when your alone especially at night in the woods and as a kid don't go running off in the woods.

The ending made is what convinced me that this man is truly genius. No scream, no splattering gore-simply a silent shot of the creepy old house. The desolation amplifies the horror tenfold.

Hollywood: *Spends millions of dollars to make a two hour movie seem scary* Jack Stauber: Hold my pumpkin

The captions don't make any sense with what's being said in the video💀

I wonder why nobody talks about the last part when the pumpkin said “I’m going to feed you to my cat”, I mean. That ending is just underrated in the comments

moral of the story: *dont trust pumpkins that make the boards go rat-tat-tat.*

Honestly though, these kinds of horror are far scarier than most kinds of horrors shown in movies and other shows; It's like whenever they say the chillest person is the scariest when they're mad, Making something that seems so innocent-looking and positive and suddenly putting that world upside down. This is basically like happy tree friends, except more horror instead of just gore

This seriously is cool. The art style is epic.

I won't ask again, I'll just come back to this song/animation next year, it's SO good!

It should be called "over the garden wall deleted scene".

When he said "i can make the lights go out" i would have left.

I'm watching this on Halloween

The fact that this was SO popular from like 2019-2020 and no one even knew what the song meant-

*”I can tickle your nose and after that-“* Child: HjIhBbNJSJJksksjgshs

“I’ll feed you to my cat.” -Random Pumpkin 2018

The fact that i’m getting petrified over my own reflection when i’m alone from this song makes me think how scary it is that the pumpkin NEVER stopped smiling singing the whole “chorus” lmfao

This fills me with such a primal sense of dread and I can’t begin to explain why.

this literally could be a cartoon in the 1930's

This is the definition of perfect

As freakishly terrifying this is, you all have to realise this is also a piece of art to the maker.

Hé protecc Hé attacc But most importantly *he can make the boards go ra-ta-tat*

"You cant make horror without jumpscares" Jack Stauber: Observe

Happy Halloween 2023 🧟‍♂️🎃

Remember kids dont interact with pumpkin with a face

His seemingly “innocent” smile stays plastered on his face the entire time, even when the kid is suffering.

don't worry guys, its just the tooth fairy's rebellious stage

This is such a brilliant video and I love how cheerful and creepy it is it’s absolutely adorable and sooooo neat ngl!!^^

I absolutely LOVE how the song never changed. It’s still the same jolly tune, even as the child goes blind as a bat, toothless, dizzy, and fed to a cat. Real scariness-

This feels like one of those nightmares that's terrifying at the time but when you think about what happened it seems weird and you wonder why it scared you

This looks like a Old school Disney Short but it's R rated.

never trust a pumpkin that can make the board go ra-ta-ta

it’s that time of the year where i watch this once a week and fear all pumpkins i come across

I like the way the pumpkin makes the lights go out and you get a subliminal feeling of uneasiness, but everything is all happy so you ignore it. Then he makes the world go slow and you realise 'ok, this pumpkin has godlike powers, something isn't right here' and that feeling of uneasiness sets in once again, but he tickles the kid's nose to lull you into a false sense of security. Then comes subtle lowering in the pitch of the pumpkin's voice and shit gets real dark real fast. The best part is when you (inevitably) watch the video again and notice the pumpkin slam the door closed once the kid comes in and realise the pumpkin had bad intentions from the very beginning.

I wanna put this in a vhs and put it in a stranger’s mailbox

JACK THE PUMPKIN KING

I just love the old cartoon halloween vibes

I will never understand how addictive Jack's songs are, they make you want to put them on repeat and leave them there until you get tired

Ooooh I hate it. I hate how the kid tries to look around when he goes blind. I See, I like cheerful tunes with not so cheerful lyrics, but this shit. This makes me feel some sort of dread I can't understand. It's just awful.. That kid had no idea what would happen. He was lured in. And then instantly, he was prey, and he had no control over the situation. God dammit, Jack. I love it.

Mom: Why don’t you play with the neighbors kid? The neighbors kid:

When the door closed the boy just went 'oh!' And then went right back to dancing with the pumpkin

lesson learned never trust a guy who can make floor boards go rat-tat-tat

"Wanna be a member? Wanna be a member?" "nnNOO!"

Jack Stauber seems like the kind of person to have a small cult dedicated to him

Dhar Mann:never judge a book by its cover Me:💀💀💀ArE u Sure Aboutdat

It’s fall, time to rewatch this work of art

Imagine this, the lights suddenly go out and you hear the faint noise of boards creaking, everything starts to move slower you get a strange sensation on your nose but it soon leaves you as you notice your teeth are slowly starting to decay and they eventually fall out, you panic as you notice your sight gradually fadeing to nothing, a wave of nausea hits you making you drop to the ground, the last thing you hear is this bone chilling but admitingly catchey song

*..Lyrics♡* _Wow!_ _Come in, come in!_ _Oh!_ _I can make the lights go out_ _I can make the wooden boards go ra-ta-tat_ _I can make the world seem slower, slower_ _Tickle your nose_ _And after that_ _I can make your teeth fall out_ _I can make you go blind as a bat_ _I can make you feel dizzy_ _Fall asleep and I'll feed you to my cat_

Moral of the story… *Never trust a man who can make the wooden board go rat-ta-ta*

Play it on 0.25 x speed. It will be more creepier

Halloween has officially begun

the more you watch this the more you will see how detailed jack stauber worked on this video! loved it when the scary part came jack implemented the organ in it. what i loved even more though was that the child stopped screaming when the pumpkin was singing „fall asleep and i‘ll feed you to my cat“ meaning it fell asleep. other things like closing the door at the beginning meaning the pumpkin had evil intentions from the very beginning underrated genius
