Halloween has arrived, but if you didn't carve out time to make a jack-o'-lantern this year, you can live vicariously through a master pumpkin stabber.

Brooklyn-based artist Chris Soria spent 15 hours meticulously chipping away at a pumpkin. He filmed the carving progress to create an impressive stop-motion video, which shows the gourd's spooky life cycle from fresh off the patch to moldy death.

The Ramones' "Lobotomy" provides the musical backdrop to the clip, making this a perfect way to get in the spooky spirit.
