This one is by Kirsten Leah who was very careful not to end up in Hospital. We nearly did a modern one in Water mellon. I think is is strange that people use these. Obviously it is a matter of form and\u00a0fashion\u00a0over the story. The story seems to go like this.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>Jack was an evil person who would not go to heaven.<\/li>\n<li>Jack tricked and trapped the devil.<\/li>\n<li>Jack stored the devil in the jack-o-lantern.<\/li>\n<li>Jack let the devil go when he signed a contract to let his soul be completely free and never have to go to hell.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\">The lanterns are much older than this story. So I guess that the story probably has a celtic origin with Celtic gods. It sounds very like a Celtic story. And the story is that only evil people need to put out jack-o-lanterns as they are the ones who need to be saved from their sins.<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/20111101-061200.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/20111101-061200.jpg\" alt=\"20111101-061200.jpg\" width=\"482\" height=\"360\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0The Jack-&#8216;o-Lantern.
