Most famous story is the story that a man called "miser Jack" deceived the devil.
Jack arrived at the gate of the hell after he has died, he can’t go to the hell and heaven. Then he seems to have come to be called Jack (Jack of the lantern) from a thing it was given the turnip which he turned on a light of, and to continue walking the gloomy way without falling into the hell for business with the devil.
