Ever wonder where the "Jack" in "Jack-o'-Lantern" comes from? It's from an old Irish folktale about a man named Stingy Jack, who tricked the Devil so many times that when he died, he was barred from both Heaven and Hell. The Devil, annoyed, sent him off to wander the dark forever, with only a burning coal inside a hollowed-out turnip to light his way. Those original carved turnips were meant to be his ghoulish face. . . . . . #halloweennight #Folklore #mythology #fblifestyle | Black Dragon Taver
