A Little Halloween Help

A Little Halloween Help
Basically at work on Saturday we are having a charity fundraising day and part of my role is to make a Halloween related quiz. Now I could just copy and paste a quiz, but I'd rather put in a little more effort (plus alot of the free ones are a bit crap imo).
It would be really appreciated if some of you guys could put some question suggestions forward to help me out a little (with the answers please). I'm asking for a bit help as I don't want to make the quiz too hard or too easy, or too boring
I've never made a quiz before so I don't want it to be crap.
Thank you in advance.

Why do we carve pumpkins?
An old Celtic tradition. Based on a s
myth about 'Jack' or 'Stingy Jack' who tricked the devil and as a result was left in 'limbo' unaccepted to heaven or he'll because of his behavior. He lives in limbo with only a turnip lit by a lighted peice of coal to light his way.
I'm sure it could be simplified further.
