A real one.
The name turnip / swede / swedish turnip depends on location. Large, yellow flesh, purplish top on skin.
The original Jack O'Lantern or goblin head.
One we did earlier with some spooky moons.
Ghosts are more to do with All Saints Eve (halloween) than Celtic / Irish Samhain, usually called Halloween in English.. Zombies etc with Day of the Dead.
Pumpkins added to Thanksgiving in 19th C. and American Halloween later.

Irrelevant fact (for Jack O'Lanterns).
The visible moon needs a camera exposure similar to a very cloudy dark day or it's burnt out with no detail. Expose for moon and the sky is black, even in space.
So you need to take two shots to have stars and moon. Then make black transparent on top exposed for moon layer.
Phones make moon tiny.
A long exposure will turn stars into streaks. A longer exposure with polar mount tracking makes stars sharp, but you get Musk's satellite streaks.
