Halloween is officially over and you know what that means: Mariah Carey is giving us all permission to start celebrating Christmas.

In a video posted to social media Monday, we see three pumpkins spelling out "It’s not time."

Carey, wearing a red sparkly dress armed with a candy cane-striped baseball bat, then takes the bat and smashes the "not" pumpkin right as the clock strikes midnight on Nov. 1.

We also see a flash of a present with "11/5" on it -- a hint of something being released on that date, perhaps?
