Not since the 'Pine-O-Lantern' – last year's awesome pineapple Insta-trend – have we been this excited about an alternative Halloween pumpkin.

Bulgarian artist Angel Boraliev (Instagram: @angel_boraliev) has been taking the internet by storm with his incredible pumpkin carvings – only, far from being scary like your average Hallows' Eve pumpkin, they're so stunning they'd be better suited as a table centrepiece than a creepy windowsill lamp.

We're not sure how difficult they'd be to carve, but one thing's clear — if you're stylish, you need one of these this Halloween.

From precious floral engravings to impressive bird sculptures and tribal-like patterns, his works contain mesmerising detail – see his carving skills in action, plus some of his best works in the clip above.

They're the perfect pumpkin inspiration ahead of the spooky day on the calendar.

Boraliev isn't the only carving artist to strike online fame. Earlier this year, we were mesmerised by the talents of Italian-born artist and Instagram sensation Daniele Barresi, whose intricate fruit sculpture tutorials regularly go viral.
