What I used to do was to use two 3 or 4 inch globe decorative light bulbs 
(low wattage) for eyes and connect the filament to an ignition coil  and 
cover the globe patially with aluminum foil tape (connect to ground) to make 
lightening eyes.  It doesn't make an orange pumpkin but looks really klew in 
the dark.  The ignition coil driver was very similar to Dr. Resonances 
driver diagram.  Keep some clearance between the screw connection on the 
lamp and the foil of course.
