Legend has it that an Irish drunkard named JACK tricked the devil into a tree one day, then carved a cross on the stump, threatening the devil to make him afraid to come down, and then JACK made an agreement with the devil to ask the devil to cast a spell so that JACK would never commit a crime and let him get off the tree. After JACK's death, his soul can neither go to heaven nor go to hell, so his ghost had to wander between heaven and earth by a small candle.
