<\/a><\/p>\nThe origin of the story of ‘Pumpkinhead’ was actually a poem that was wrote by Ed Justin, it goes like this:<\/h3>\n
\n
“Keep away from Pumpkinhead,<\/em>
\nUnless you’re tired of living.<\/em>
\nHis enemies are mostly dead,<\/em>
\nHe’s mean and unforgiving.<\/em>
\nLaugh at him and your undone,<\/em>
\nBut in some dreadful fashion.<\/em>
\nVengeance he considers fun,<\/em>
\nAnd plans it with a passion.<\/em>
\nTime will not erase or blot,<\/em>
\nA plot that he has brewing.<\/em>
\nIt’s when you think that he’s forgot,<\/em>
\nHe’ll conjure your undoing.<\/em>
\nBolted doors and windows barred.<\/em>
\nGuard dogs prowling in your yard.<\/em>
\nWon’t protect you in your bed.<\/em>
\nNothing will, from Pumpkinhead.”<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/p>\nThe film also had a comic spin-off, a four parter courtesy of Dark Horse comics. It was a great read but unfortunately ended on a cliff hanger after it was stopped after only two releases, I’m not sure why that happened but it really was a shame. The artwork and story were truly well done and I know a few fans who have read it and still can’t understand why it was stopped.<\/h3>\n
There has been talk of a sequel or remake over the last few years, personally if there was a new release I’d love to see a prequel.\u00a0We don’t really know too much about the origins of how the monster came to be and his ties to the old witch lady. I was quite shocked we didn’t already have a sequel as franchises usually go down that route by film number three.<\/h3>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n“Pumpkinhead” mainly has a cult following and \u00a0in my opinion is an under-rated franchise, just skip \u00a0number two (you won’t miss out on anything) and you’ll be just fine.<\/h3>\n
