David Irwin is an artist who loves giving a second life to unwanted items and also celebrating Halloween. This time, on the eve of All Saints' Day, he decided to make a figurine of an interesting and creepy character out of an unnecessary plastic pumpkin.
“I made a magical character named Drigsby Blackwood out of a plastic pumpkin. He travels from town to town in his unique pumpkin on wheels, telling Halloween stories to children and adults,” the artist writes about his creation.
