according to an old legend, it is on the eve of All Saints' Day, which is celebrated annually on October 31, that all the souls of the deceased return to their home to realize their unrealized plans. Evil souls reincarnate in animals, and evil forces wander the earth, seeking to harm and intimidate people.
However, not all sought to see evil spirits, so they defended their houses carved from potatoes, turnips and pumpkins with creepy mugs. This tradition for Halloween has survived to this day, so Jack's lamp is one of the main symbols of this mystical feast. A horrible carved pumpkin with a burning candle is the main decoration of houses and yards, as well as festive dishes for Halloween.
