    Scotland here, we do have a bit of an Americanised Halloween but there’s definitely elements of traditional Samhain celebrations.

    Turnip lanterns > pumpkin lanterns.

      legitimate question; how do those work?

      do you do something like, punch a hole thru it, and stick a candle in its place, or what?

      I’ve only ever seen pumpkin lanterns, and the turnips here where I am are about the size of a small child’s fist.
