The Final Results of the Security Breach Pumpkin Madness Contest

Hello Everyone! 

Even though Halloween Month is now officially over, we’re here to celebrate Halloween one last time by announcing the winners and honorable mentions of our Security Breach Pumpkin Madness Contest! First and foremost, we want to sincerely thank you all so much for the overwhelming enthusiasm and incredible amount of submissions! We’ve received more than three hundred entries and it really shows how much the community is committed to FNaF! Our team was extremely excited to look at every single one (looking at all these pumpkins has been a nice break from all of the work going on). Without further ado, here are the results!


For THIRD PLACE, 

Our team of Judges has decided on these pumpkins: 

THIRD PLACE - Aidan S.

THIRD PLACE - Samuel P.

Congratulations to Aidan S. and Samuel P.! You both deserved a spot up in the top 3! 

The team was so torn between these two amazing pumpkins for third place, and after much deliberation, they just couldn’t decide! Both of your carving skills are just *chef’s kiss* absolutely immaculate!


Next up in SECOND PLACE,

The next pumpkin our team of judges have decided on:

SECOND PLACE - Enrique R.

This absolutely adorable pumpkin duo was made by our second-place winner, Enrique R.


Our judges loved the creativity behind this Gregory and Freddy pumpkin! You captured the true essence of Gregory so well, we couldn’t ignore this. Well done!


Judge’s Quote: “The cowering Gregory pumpkin hiding in Freddy's chest sold it. It became a quick favorite.“


Finally, grand prize winner, the FIRST PLACE, the ruler of all pumpkins,

*DRUMROLL PLEASE*

FIRST PLACE - Da Regular Sauce


Congratulations, Da Regular Sauce!!

Our team received hundreds of entries, and this one stood out in all its creepy animatronic glory. Our judges were absolutely blown away by this pumpkin! From the paint job to the carving and the animatronic elements, you nailed it! This pumpkin had the perfect balance of creepy and cool!


Judge’s Quote: “Not only does the Springtrap pumpkin look fantastic, but it's also hiding the most horrifying shriveled Afton head. VERY inspired and VERY creative!”


HONORABLE MENTIONS,
