Creid é nó ná creid – Believe it or not – but Jack-O-Lanterns (‘Seán na Gealaí’) were traditionally made from turnips! This spooky tradition was part of Samhain, the ancient pagan festival of Ireland, when Celts marked the end of summer and the beginning of the Celtic new year. Over the centuries, Samhain transformed into All Hallows’ Eve, the evening before November 1, or what’s now referred to as Oíche Shamna, or ‘Hallowe’en’. The tradition of carving Jack-O-Lanterns has stuck, and remains an iconic part of this bewitching festival.

Eolas anseo:

What's the history behind the Jack-O-Lantern ('Seán na Gealaí'), and the carving up of pumpkins every Hallowe'en season?
