Jack-o'-lantern Mug 2

$70.00

"The Jack-o'-lantern's origin is rooted in the Irish folk tale of "Stingy Jack," a trickster who outsmarted the Devil multiple times. After Jack's death, neither Heaven nor Hell would accept him. The Devil gave Jack a burning coal to light his path, which he placed in a carved-out turnip. This "Jack of the Lantern" became a ghostly figure, and people carved turnip lanterns with scary faces to ward off his spirit and other evil spirits, a tradition brought to America by Irish immigrants who switched to pumpkins for their availability and ease of carving."
