To expand on some of the terms mentions in the pic above for additional context :
A)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will-o%27-the-wisp
- refers to a hope or goal that leads one on, but is impossible to reach, or something one finds strange or sinister.[3]
B)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stingy_Jack
- is a mythical character sometimes associated with All Hallows Eve while also acting as the mascot of the holiday. The "jack-o'-lantern" may be derived from the character.[1]
- An 1836 edition of the Dublin Penny Journal has Jack help an old man who is revealed to be an angel. To reward him, the angel grants Jack three wishes. He uses these to punish anyone who sits in his chair, takes wood from his tree, or tries to take his cobbling tools, by fixing them to the ground. The angel is disappointed by this and bars Jack from entering Heaven. Jack manages to deflect Satan's messengers who attempt to trick him, and he is condemned to roam the world neither Heaven or Hell.[2]
