word="Halloween">Halloween</span>这个名字。说起来，杰克南瓜灯就是个非常好的例子。这些被雕过的南瓜，其实是用来为迷路的鬼魂们指路，或者是驱散恶灵的。杰克这个名字的由来，说白了，就是一个叫杰克的小男孩挑衅了恶魔，然后被恶魔永远关在了地狱了。可是这个淘气<span word="boy">boy</span>可不甘心啊，他用恶魔砸在他身上的芜菁(也叫大头菜，疙瘩头，神似大萝卜)做了一个灯，为自己逃出地狱指路。但这个故事其实讲的是爱尔兰版本的杰克灯，直到爱尔兰爆发土豆饥荒，大批人到美国逃难，爱尔兰人才把这个万圣节传统带到美国。但有一点改动的是，他们开始用南瓜代替芜菁制灯，因为芜菁这东西“在北美很难找到”。南瓜万岁!</p>
