4About it
A jack-o'-lantern is a pumpkin carved with a face and lit from inside by a candle, a symbol of Halloween. The custom comes from Ireland and Britain, where people once carved faces into turnips and potatoes; in North America, the big, soft pumpkin turned out to be much easier to carve.
This one glows through its carved eyes and grin. Tap to lift the lid off the top, and tap again to put it back. The name comes from an old Irish tale of a man called Stingy Jack, who wandered the night carrying a lantern. With ✋ Hands-on on, lift the lid off by its stem and set it down; bring it back over the hole and it drops into place.
