Stingy Jack & The Devil in Ireland Fascination

    • Society & Culture

As the summer fades and the promised autumnal chill comes creeping, we're reminded of the ghoulish traditions of Halloween...

Do you know the Irish tale of Stingy Jack? Before you place a candle in your gourd this year...come with me to a sleepy village in the 1700's - where a miserly old blacksmith, with pint in hand and prank in mind - unwittingly seals his fate, forever.

Park your PSL and gather 'round for a fully realized retelling of the story - a story where we learn that the Devil doesn't always make you do it - when you do it to yourself.

Special thanks to actor Mark Manning for voicing the authentically Irish - Stingy Jack.
