Get Inspired for This Halloween by Checking Out Villafane Studios [PICS]

All Hallows Eve is almost here and It's time to start thinking about costumes, candy spooks and spectacles. Nothing get's me excited about Halloween like Pumpkins and there is only one place to see the spookiest Jack-O-Lanterns on the Planet.

Let's check out what Villafane Studios has for us this year.

Ray Villafane, visionary of the Villafane Studios was born in Queens, New York. Ray’s hobby of pumpkin sculpting was brought to an entirely new level in 2007 when he was  asked to participate in the Food Network’s Challenge Show, Outrageous Pumpkins. Ray competed as one of four professional pumpkin sculptors, impressed the judges enough to sweep all three rounds and was awarded the Grand Prize.

Outrageous Pumpkins logged the highest ratings of any other Challenge episode, and a second invitation was extended to Ray in 2009. They wanted him to come back and defend his title in their Outrageous Pumpkins Challenge II. Ray defended his 2008 title and took home the 2010 Grand Prize from the Food Network’s Pumpkin Challenge II.
