What do you see everywhere during Halloween and in this maze? That’s right! Pumpkins! But where does the tradition of using pumpkins on Halloween actually come from? It comes from a very old story. This story is about Jack-o'-Lantern. A man who was forced by the devil to keep walking in circles forever. He begged the devil for a small light so he could illuminate the dark roads. He got it. He just needed something to put the light in. This turned out to be a pumpkin that he had hollowed out. And ta-da! There was his very own light.
