Do you know why we carve pumpkins on Halloween?
The tradition comes from the Irish legend of Stingy Jack, a cunning man who tricked the Devil multiple times. Because of his deceitful and sinful life, Jack was denied entry into heaven. But the Devil, still bitter from being outwitted, also refused him access to hell. Instead, the Devil sent Jack off into the dark night with only a glowing coal to light his way. Jack placed the coal inside a carved-out turnip, creating the first "Jack-o'-lantern."
The Irish began carving their own lanterns to ward off Jack’s wandering spirit and other evil beings. When they immigrated to America, they found pumpkins to be a perfect substitute for turnips, giving us the iconic Halloween tradition we know today. 🎃
