  1. I actually got exhausted carving my Halloween 1978 inspired pumpkin his year. For some reason, the pumpkins this year in SoCal had extremely thick rinds. You could have cracked someone over the head with one if you wanted to.

  2. Yep! Every year, I’m always blown away at how big door to door trick-or-treating still is, and yes, traditional costumes are still big. I even see a handful of homemade costumes!

  3. I have a Dremel tool that is specifically for carving! It helps with some bits! Also, if you find enough light isn't coming through smaller holes, go back in with a knife and carve out some of the edges inside the pumpkin. (You guys didn't have this problem, but it's something folks new to carving might not know!)

  4. I'm so happy that you shared a recipe for roasted pumpkin seeds too! I've been carving pumpkins & Funkins for years, and have been telling myself I'd look into roasting pumpkin seeds with what remains, again, for years on end now and never got around to it. Figured there was a lot more research to do because I had it in my mind that there were carving pumpkins and then there are cooking pumpkins…. but no, it's that easy. :O I know what I'm trying next time we get a live pumpkin to carve!

  5. As a person, who carved a pumpkin for the first time this year, too, I'm absolutely proud of those you've made! They look amazing! It turned out to be not that easy, hah. (A lot funnier was to bury mine into the ground – like witches usually do, as they say)

  6. Heya Voltaire! I don't know if you'll ever see this but I'm a huge fan! I first heard your music when you did "Brains!" for The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy! Afterwards I ended up falling down the rabbit hole and started listening to so much more of the music you've made! Your style of music is awesome, and so unique! I just wanna say that you're totally awesome, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do in the future! Stay awesome!

  7. You can also use the parts you have cutting off the pumpkin to make a delicious jam. Just cook with sugar, clove and cinnamon until dissolve (I recommend to add grated coconut too). It is perfect for filling pies, cakes, breads or just eating plain.

  8. This may not mean much to you at all, but my moms gothic and I grew up listening to a LOT of your music!

    When You're Evil is a song my mom and I sang in the car today at the top of our lungs and The Night was a song I'd listen to to fantasize about being a gothic lollita (or Victorian Romantic goth with fairytale aspects/details) and dancing with the gothic woman of my dreams, and frankly?
    I blame you (along with Brothers Grimm and my mother) for my sense in fashion!

    Your music has brought my mom and I a lotta joy and I LOVE listening to it on my own!
    I'm still rather young but your music has really influenced aspects of my life.

  9. Help wanted! I wanted to know if there's a way to get one of Voltaire's key necklaces? A dear friend of mine got one many moons ago at one of his gigs and cherished it like you wouldn't believe. But during his recent move, he's been unable to find it nor anyway to get a replacement. Are you able to help me? I'd love to be able to give it to him for Christmas. Not looking for freebies either, I'm happy to pay for any and all help.

  10. Time to go on a brief rant because seeing this has reminded me how happy these things make me. I've been a fan of Voltaire for quite a while, hands down my favorite musician not only in music but in general behavior and the community he's built. Quite a lot of the music has helped me through some rough times (such as Innocent, which has helped others I've shared it with as well) and seeing these little videos every once in a while always puts a smile on my face. I don't stop by every time to watch but when I do I'm always glad I did, and there's just something so emotionally healing about hearing that laugh.

    Voltaire really is a gift to this world, and I know I and many others will never forget all this positivity.

  11. The first time I watched a video on this channel I think I was maybe 15? And was always sad that I was DEFINITELY too young to see a Voltaire show. And now I'm 23 and I still love your stuff. Cool video and nice to meet your fiancé, I wasn't able to carve pumpkins this year so this is a good way to still enjoy that

  12. Unfortunately scammers are pretending to be YouTube content creators ( including me) and offering prizes. It's a phishing scam. If you see a comment that appears to be from my account never reply without first clicking on the icon. A sure giveaway is that while the profile appears to be mine, they'll have no followers. Plus I will NEVER ask for people's personal information or phone numbers on here. Be safe!

  13. Just imagine the beautiful autumn leaves, Look at how beautiful they have become and oh the irony of how they shrivel and die.
    Then Mayumi laughs haha
    I love that. She just lights up and that laugh just warms up the whole house. You two are such a beautiful couple.
