He can be effectively shot at from atop the wall of the Shady Oaks cemetery next to the Pumpkin Patch.

Trivia
- The mission name is a reference to the 1988 horror film Pumpkinhead.
- Contrary to the other Jakob's Cove bounty board missions, this mission says Jakob's Cove Bounty Board (B's being capitalized for some reason.)
- Using a scoped weapon, zooming on the empty neck of the corpse shows that the head is still attached and glowing, just shrunken.
- When killed with a headshot, Pumpkinhead drops Zombie Brains.
