How about the jack-o-lanterns? The term is from an Irish folklore about a person named Jack and his hunting soul that carried a lantern that flickered while he wandered about endlessly in the place where he lost his life.
In the Philippines we usually celebrate it by dressing up and wearing costumes, going out “trick or treating”, or hosting costume parties topped with drinking games. It also serves as the preparation for the “araw ng mga patay” on November 1 and 2.
