Pumpkin carver recreates 'Harry Potter' and other movie scenes for Halloween

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- It's Halloween and we are seeing a lot of great Jack-o-lanterns on social media.

First up, Jack and Sally from the "Nightmare Before Christmas" were carved into a pumpkin.



The amazing artwork was done by Courtney Wunder of Wunderkins Pumpkins.

Wunder specializes in custom craft-pumpkin carving. She says each foam pumpkin is carved to look real and enhance your Halloween display.

Wunder has been carving pumpkins since she was a child, and in 2015, she started making the pumpkins for her friends, family and even won a few local contests.

She says it takes her about two to fours hours to carve a simpler pumpkin, and five to 10 hours for a more complex carve.

Wonder has done 16 carvings this year, which focused on features like Harry Potter and other iconic spooky films.
