"Candles were placed inside the turnips and they were used to frighten people on the night of 31 October. The pumpkin that is prevalent today is an American development of this Irish tradition."

We always used to have carved turnips in Scotland. I didn't see a pumpkin until after my teens.

I've posted a couple of my neep lanterns here before. They are much harder to carve than pumpkins
