'Trumpkin' fad shows Donald Trump looks freakily like a pumpkin

'Trumpkin' fad (Twitter)

It's not long now until the scariest night of the year - the American Presidential Election. Oh, and Halloween's coming up too.

Americans are getting into the spirit of both by mashing-up the two and displaying 'Trumpkins' outside their homes.

Social media is ablaze with people sharing their terrifying creations, after it was discovered that there is a bizarre similarity between Donald Trump's head and the shape, size and colour of pumpkins.

The range and style of the carvings has been 'YUGE' - from the minimalist, to the frighteningly accurate.

They might not make America great again, but they've certainly brought some (pumpkin) spice back into the annual holiday.
