Lorenzo Waterman, better known as the Pumpkin Rabbit, is the main antagonist of the Walten Files's Halloween Special episode The Mysterious House and its sequel The Return of the Pumpkin Rabbit.
He was originally a redesign of Bon the Bunny as a Halloween themed character, before getting a full spin-off video based in The Walten Files universe. He is a seemingly hospitable and cool-tempered person, with an almost whimsical and playful way of speech, to the point of near sociopathy. Even after killing someone, he continues this persona to the horror of his victims.
In The Mysterious House, he is voiced by series creator Martin Paredes. From The Return of the Pumpkin Rabbit onwards, he is voiced by Eva/Bravvyy, who also voices Bon in the same series and Thomas Flyswatter in Bugbo.
Appearance[]
The Pumpkin Rabbit is a large, anthropomorphic rabbit with design aspects that imply he is partly organic and partly animatronic. He has a ripped and tattered orange striped covering, exposing his endoskeleton through exposed arms, legs, and chest areas, almost identical to Bon. His neck is also a single, metallic tube shooting out of his body to support his head. His covering is also striped in a way slightly darker colored bands that swirl down his body, similar to that of a candy cane. He has a smile that spreads from jaw to jaw, contorting his face, his crooked snout with a black nose wrinkling because of it. Bits of hair exist on his shoulders and the sides of his face, revealing his coating may be textured similar to that of human or rabbit hair. He has no eyes, with the yellow coloring contrasting his orange fur, purposely emulating the feel of a carved Jack-o-Lantern. He also has a large purple bow tie that hangs at the base of his neck almost loosely, swaying as he moves.
In his more "realistic" form, he loses many minutias of his design, including the hairs he had on his face and shoulders, the creasing of his snout from his smile, and his metallic neck, his head seemingly floating simply by his own will. His tears and exposures remain the same, as wells as his coloring. His purple bow tie also now sits on the tear in his chest, which it too seems to be floating. He seems to stand much taller than before, with his locomotion seemingly limited by the technical limits of his endoskeleton, unlike before where he had much more fluid and organic movement. Finally, the teeth in his smile have gained a much more photo-realistic quality to them, almost looking like he's snarling rather than smiling. Behind his yellow mask, as it's revealed, is a smiling, rotted corpse.
Personality[]
The Pumpkin Rabbit is shown, at first, to be a very calm and laid-back person, talking to both Duckie and Tammy in a very endearing tone, offering candy to them as welcomed guests.
He finds great importance in treating his guests with kindness, and to create memories so he will never forget them. He speaks with an almost fairy tale-esque tone, calling the guests "little children" and "little bunny" as he speaks to them. It seems to be almost an attempt of infantilization, trying to make the children feel smaller and weaker, and to become more hesitant of nighttime.
He also can very quickly become pushy, with the photo he takes of Duckie and Tammy being without consent, and talking over Duckie and Tammy as they try to explain why they're trying to go home, offering his own idea to let them stay at his home.
His tone never changes throughout the episode, and when he's revealed to have killed many children, he only sees it as them becoming part of a family, so he does not forget them, and sees Tammy finding out as simply a "naughty child" acting out against his will, that he must "teach".
Biography[]
The Mysterious House[]
After Duckie and Tammy trick-or-treat late into the night and successfully get the candy they really wanted, Tammy decides to pressure Ducky into hitting just a couple more houses. They decide on a house that is more secluded, and mysterious, and begin to knock on the door. They're let in by a grey version of Sha the Sheep that ushers them in for candy. After they arrive, they're introduced to the people who live in the home. These people are Billy the Clown, TVA, and The Pumpkin Rabbit. After this introduction, the Pumpkin Rabbit offers the children candy, followed by TVA taking a photo. The Pumpkin Rabbit explains that he takes photos as a memento to not forget his guests. He then offers the children to look at his previous memento photos, and it's revealed one of the photos is of a child that's been missing since Halloween of 1978. The children then try to explain why they should go home, before the Pumpkin Rabbit cuts them off, and offers them to stay at their place. Duckie questions this idea, before he reassures him that it's a great idea and that it will only be for one night.
Late at night, Duckie and Tammy are found sleeping in a guest room, before Duckie gets up and walks out of the room. After this Tammy follows, beginning to look around the house for Duckie. As she does this, both Sha and Pumpkin Rabbit stalk her throughout her journey around the room, before she finds a door where she can hear Duckie's voice calling her name. She goes into the room before the door is shut behind her. When she looks around, she realizes that she had found the corpse of Duckie, and the voice had been a lie. She also finds three other corpses, corresponding to the photos on the wall she was shown earlier with Duckie. The Pumpkin Rabbit then appears, in a much more realistic-looking form, asking her what she's doing in the room. Tammy asks what he did before he responds by calling her a naughty child that needs punishment. He also says that she'll get to join them, and asks if she would like that. He then reaches for her, as Tammy tries to get away, before he fully lunges at her, revealing a corpse that had been lying behind his mask. He then sets up Tammy's corpse next to the others, completing his "family."
Boozoo's Holiday Message[]
In Boozoo's Holiday Message, he is briefly seen staring at two Walten Files posters that he (presumably) bought and put in his basement to decorate it, humorously making a thumb up to Boozoo to mark his approval. Several of his victims (including Duckie and Tammy) are also briefly displayed, though their corpses don't look mutilated and they rather seem to be sleeping (though their crossed eyes imply they are dead).
Hunted Down[]
After the disappearance of Tammy and Duckie, local authorities immediately tried to connect the case with the Watermen, but were unable to press serious charges due to no bodies being found in their home. However, this only sparked a murderous rage in the townsfolk, who in an act of revenge for all the deaths caused by the Watermen, pulled them out of their home and publicly executed them by burning them down in crosses in the town square.
However, the Watermen' souls somehow persevered through binding themselves to their victims photo book album.
The Return of the Pumpkin Rabbit[]
Years after their deaths, in Halloween 1983, a group of four children visit the Waterman residence out of morbid curiosity, even proposing to make it their clubhouse to become the toughest kids in town. One child, Ralph, wasn't particularly happy about the idea and decided to wait outside playing ball until the rest came to their senses.
Ralph's ball bounces off to a pumpkin farm near the home, where the Pumpkin Rabbit would manifest. He tried tricking Ralph into approaching him by offering the ball back, but he was instantly recognized by the child, who began running away in fear. As Ralph ran, he started to notice that the farm was becoming more bizarre, with the most obvious indicative being that the scarecrows were now replaced by the corpses of the Watermen's victims. Eventually, Ralph stepped on a pumpkin stem, injuring his foot and leading to the Pumpkin Rabbit to catch him and tear off his face.
Later, the Pumpkin Rabbit is seen imitating Ralph in order to gain another one of the children, Jay's trust as she was hiding inside a cupboard. He eventually loses patience, and goes inside the cupboard to go after her himself. Jay tries her best to crawl through the tight space, but is eventually caught. However, she manages to kick off his mask in the middle of the struggle, buying her valuable time to break free and get out of the cupboard. She reunites with Dino, the other remaining survivor of her group, and the two fall into the Watermen's basement.
In the basement, Jay uses her wits to get the key to a locked room. Once they unlocked the door, she sees a window that the two could potentially use to escape, but slides off once she hears the voice of the Pumpkin Rabbit coming closer and closer. As she slides off, she accidentally turns the lights on, revealing the corpses of the Watermen's victims, all lifelessly sitting on chairs.
As the two watch in horror, the Pumpkin Rabbit finally arrives at the basement. As he slowly approaches the room, the Rabbit starts monologuing about how this year's hunt was delightful, but that playtime was over; now he was planning to punish them for being "naughty" and sneaking into his basement. In spite of the makeshift barricade Jay and Dino had put up, the Pumpkin Rabbit seemingly teleports through it, causing Dino to drop the photo book he stole from the Witch Sheep moments earlier.
The Rabbit teleported behind Dino and grabbed him by the head. He lifted him up in the air and started to brutally maul his face with his bare hands, while Jay desperately pleads him to stop. The Witch Sheep then teleports behind her and restrains her, forcing her to watch. The Sheep's grip loosens, however, letting Jay escape and attack the Pumpkin Rabbit, unmasking him in the process.
He sees as Jay grabs the book, and starts pleading her to give it back to him. Jay, realizing that the Watermen's return must be related to the book in some way, refuses.
Using her father's lighter, Jay is able to burn the photo book. Lorenzo and his wife Rachel are thus maimed by the undead remains of their victims, permanently dying now that they lost their tether to reality.

Trivia[]
- He's by far the oddest character of the whole franchise, as he's partly machine (more specifically, an animatronic), food, and possibly human (though severely decayed). This implies that he's an animatronic partially made of food that is possessed by the soul of a serial killer, whose body is still decaying inside the suit.
- Because of the corpse shown inside of The Pumpkin Rabbit, some have inferred that Jack Walten's corpse is a similar state within Bon.
- While Felix Kranken seems to be the series' version of William Afton, the Pumpkin Rabbit fits that role more, being a robotic, yellow bunny with a purple bowtie who kills children for his sadistic entertainment.
