They’re out of their gourds over these celebrity pumpkins.
Karrah Youngblood’s amazing likeness of Taylor Swift carved into a pumpkin racked up 11.6 million social media views, with swooning Swifties demanding she do the same for Travis Kelce.
“I was like, ‘That’s a great idea. Plus he’s good looking.’ . . . I thought he turned out great,” Youngblood, 47, told The Post ahead of Halloween.
The Oklahoma graphic designer posted the spellbinding squashes in a TikTok video she captioned “two of my pumpkins are getting married.”
One viewer commented, “Bet the pumpkins last longer than the marriage!”
Last September, Youngblood had a mere 400 followers on Tiktok and Instagram, but after she posted a video of her Beyonce pumpkin — which now has a staggering 11.2 million combined views — she amassed nearly 70 million views of her A-list art.
The single mom — who makes her creations using only a .97 cent cutting knife, an $18 chisel, a thumbtack and a $3.50 pumpkin — sells her carvings for as much as $1,100.
She’s partnered with companies like Spotify, for whom she carved Megan Thee Stallion, and Comic Con, which asked for William Shatner.
“And I don’t even need to send them the pumpkin. I just need to send them a 15 to 30-second video,” she said.
Her process, which takes an hour and a half, begins with her designing a pattern in Adobe Illustrator, printing it out and taping it on the pumpkin.
She then uses the thumbtack to make holes around the outlines — and then spends 30 minutes carving it out.
“All of us have highlights, shadows and midtones in our faces. And there’s basically three depths of a pumpkin that are easily accessed, either cut all the way through, scraped off, or left alone,” she explained.
“So before the light turns on, it appears as a blubbering mess, but when the light shines through, they become super realistic.”
The self-proclaimed music and sports nerd focuses her work on singers like Freddie Mercury, Kurt Cobain Lady Gaga and Rihanna, and athletes such as Peyton Manning, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook –but also takes suggestions from fans.
“Somebody asked for a Paris Hilton … and then Paris Hilton followed me on TikTok, which was really cool.”
In September, she created one for the late Ozzy Osbourne — and his son, Jack, “liked” the post.
As for future creations, she is mustering up the courage to attempt this famous face, whom she knows will be her trickiest.
“One of my followers told me if I can carve a spot on Post Malone, I’ll be crowned pumpkin queen for life. The diamond teeth and face tattoos might destroy me, but I like my chances.”
