Jack of the Lantern

In 18th Century Ireland, Jack Price is a man who knows the price of everything -- and the value of nothing. He thinks himself to be the smartest, thriftiest, craftiest of men, able to outwit anyone, even old "Scratch" himself. Did you ever wonder where the tradition of the Jack 'O Lantern came from? Perhaps, from "Stingy Jack" and his long-lasting battle of wits and souls with the Devil himself ... Light a candle on a stormy night and place it in a turnip head ... and perhaps you'll see Jack of the Lantern.
