"My ancestor was a ladies' cobbler.
"One day, when he was repairing a high-heeled shoe, it moved in his hand, and the spike heel pierced his hand.
"To his surprise, he felt his blood draining into the object -- the shoe was sucking out his vital fluids! Unable to resist its onslaught, he fell unconcious.
"When he awoke, he had become a creature of the night -- a pump kin.".

Well, I thought it was funny.

Later still he became Master of Ceremonies for a fairly nice convention, and thus became a pomp kin.

...until he accompanied his cousins to "'70s Night" at the local discotheque, at which he became a bump-kin....

... which didn't last long, as the disco was flooded by heavy rains and needed drying out, which is when he became a sump kin...

...because the owner was running around wailing "Can't sumpkin be done about this!??!"

And when he finished drying up the place and took a quick snooze, it was apparent that he was a nap kin.
