Pumpkinhead

Tommy (When mistaken for his son)

> "*Keep away from Pumpkinhead, Unless your tired of living, His enemies are mostly dead, He's mean and unforgiving, Laugh at him and you're undone, But in some dreadful fashion, Vengeance, he considers fun, And plans it with a passion, Time will not erase or blot, A plot that he has been brewing, It's when you think that he's forgot, He'll conjure your undoing, Bolted doors and windows barred, Guard dogs prowling in the yard, Won't protect you in your bed, Nothing will, from Pumpkinhead!*"

## Summary

**Pumpkinhead**, also called the **Demon of Vengeance** is an incredibly brutal demonic entity that can often be summoned by those who wish to exact terrible vengeance upon a desired target, whom the demon proceeds to viciously maul and kill.

The Demon serves as the antagonist of the cult classic slasher franchise of the same name and has appeared in four motion pictures.

Note: This profile does not include the demon as presented in "Pumpkinhead 2: Blood Wings" due to it being a separate character entirely and it's differing characteristics to its parent

## Weaknesses

* Enraged by crosses in churches
* The Summoners can be used to harm the demon
	+ The creature reacts when the summoner is bitten by a dog
	+ When the summoner stabs himself with a pitchfork, Pumpkinhead is harmed
	+ When one of the four summoners is hit by debris and killed, Pumpkinhead is incapacitated
	+ When a summoner is poisoned to death, Pumpkinhead is incapacitated briefly
	+ When a summoner is shot dead, Pumpkinhead falls to the ground for only a couple seconds
* Killing all the summoners will banish the beast back to Hell as well
	+ If the summoner dies, it will stop the creature, and upon their death, the creature will burst into flames and return to Hell
	+ When the final of four summoners lights herself on fire, Pumpkinhead is sent back to Hell
	+ One guy kills the summoner, which disappears Pumpkinhead, but a spirit tells him that vengeance will arrive later
	+ When the summoner is shot and both he and Pumpkinhead fall down a well, the ritual seems to stop for good, because the witch cannot claim the body
* Killing his Witch will send him back to Hell
