A theory about Merv
I have a theory about Mervyn Pumpkinhead.  I’d say it’s a headcanon but it’s more a theory. 
Tumblr media
  According to the tale of Stingy Jack (the origin of the jack-o-Lantern) we carve Jack-o-lanterns to drive away old Jack and other wandering ghosts.  The Jack-o-lantern is a protection ward against supernatural threats from entering your home. One superstition has it that if you blow out the Jack-o-lantern before midnight on Halloween you invite evil spirits to enter your home for the entire year.  It’s only safe to blow it out after midnight. Another superstition is if you let the Jack-o-lantern burn out naturally you invite good luck for the entire year and have warded your home against evil for the full year.  It is especially good luck if it manages to burn until after sunrise. In The House with a clock in its walls Pumpkin Jack-o-lanterns are used as protection wards all year long. Jack-o-lanterns, at their heart, are symbols of protection.  Now, because we see Mervyn as a Mervyn Turniphead in The Sandman story The Tempest, it’s very clear that his Jack-o-lantern head isn’t just for the aesthetic. In his Turnip form, that is an old school Irish Jack-o-lantern.  That is a pre-Halloween decoration (use for any time of year) Protection symbol against supernatural threats.
Tumblr media
So even in present day when Mervyn has a modern Pumpkin Jack-o-lantern head, Mervyn is a walking, talking, protection ward against supernatural threats.  He’s not just the groundskeeper or janitor.  He’s a line of defense.   This does explain why Mervyn stands up to The Furies (The Kindly Ones) the way he does.
And this is also one of the many reasons I, myself, love Jack-o-lanterns.  They aren’t just symbols of Halloween. They are kind of comforting in their protective light.

I was watching horror movies with a friend today.
She said I might have issues with how I was yelling at the screen like a dad at a football game about wanting to maim and kill all the peoples.
I think Ludwig would have had a ball watching my secondhand bloodlust.
No no, he might very well be yelling with you.
Usually his brothers tell him to shut the fuck up, but if you're there to enable him, no one's watching any movies in peace.
It's quite funny because he could switch to infernal swearing at any point. It's even funnier if your first language isn't English. Incomprehensible angry gibberish to outsiders.

De on Merv Griffin Star Trek II Promotion
Transcript below.
Merv: Well you saw DeForest in this last scene that we saw appear uh not the docking the- what do you call it? The?
Leonard: I’m not going to help you.
Merv: Whatever they do with the ship in space to get it going.
Leonard: We’re taking it out of space dock.
Merv: Taking it out of space-that’s what you call it?
Leonard: Yes.
Merv: They were taking it out of the space-I thought there were technical words.
Leonard: Space dock is Bones McCoy.
Merv: Going to de-dock. De-dock the spaceship Yeah, yeah.
William: (unintelligible)
Merv: Well this is the young fella who portrays the outspoken ship’s surgeon Doctor Leonard Bones McCoy. Would you please greet DeForest Kelley.
DeForest: First off-
(unintelligible)
DeForest: Yeah. I want to tell you that I have nothing coming out other than Star Trek II except a 75-year-old turtle which just came out of hibernation.
William: Oh my word.
Merv: You wanna talk about it DeForest?
DeForest: Well her name is Myrtle
Merv: Myrtle the Turtle?
DeForest: Myrtle the Turtle which is a very original name of course.
Leonard: He or she?
DeForest: Myrtle’s a she. I gave you remember?
Leonard: Yes I remember.
Merv: And how do you know she’s 75? Where’d you peak around?
DeForest: Well a friend of ours gave us the turtle which was shown to a vet and the vet arrived at the age.
William: The rings around the shell.
DeForest: The rings around the shell and we’ve had the turtle 10 years and we felt it would be a good thing to have something in the house older than both of us.
Merv: Was the house in an uproar when she came out of hibernation?
DeForest: Just a terrible uproar. It upsets us each spring, it’s a terrible feeling-but I’m glad she’s out. But I must tell you something before I forget about it. I’m so scared, I never do talk shows you know.
Merv: Well we’re delighted you’re here
DeForest: I’m absolutely a wreck I must tell you
William: You don’t like a wreck Leonard-DeForest
Leonard: You look alright.
Merv: You look very relaxed and comfortable.
DeForest: Thank you.
Leonard: You’re handling it beautifully De.
DeForest: That’s what you always tell me.
Merv: You’ve not always been a good guy on film.
DeForest: No, no I haven’t.
Merv: You had your years of being the bad guy.
DeForest: Yes indeed. Yes, a great number of them.
Merv: Which is preferred DeForest?
DeForest: I don’t know. I spent about 10 years trying to get out of the heavy department. There were a group of us running around at the time, James Coburn, and a guy named Jack Elam, with the crazy eye, and there were about 5 of us that were running from show to show. And I got into this thing, I like them because they really are the most interesting roles I find actually.
Merv: More guts to ’em.
DeForest: But then like everything else, I wanted to get out of it. And I had just- I was finding my way out of it, slowly. I had done a film called “Raintree County” in which I got away-he was still a heavy, I kill Lee Marvin in the show.
Merv: That very seldom almost ever happens.
DeForest: But he was a good guy as far as I was concerned. I only kill one guy. But then Eddie Dmytryk put me in a role at Paramount called “Where Love Has Gone” and that was not a heavy. Then I went into Star Trek after that and I got into the Doctor McCoy thing.
Merv: And you’ve just been a lovely person ever since.
DeForest: Yes, I’ve just been darling.
Merv: What’s your most vicious moment on the screen do you feel DeForest?
Leonard: Insulting me.
DeForest: Yes, this is right here.
Leonard: All the time.
DeForest: My situation right here.
Leonard: This is terrible what I have to put up with him.
DeForest: I must tell you about some friends of yours that I do not know personally but on Star Trek one, I went to Australia and New Zealand to do some promo stuff for the film and on the way back I stopped in Hawaii for rest and relaxation. And while there, I was staying at the Kahala Hilton, if you’re familiar with it-
Merv: Very
DeForest: The units that are in the back of the hotel that lead right out to the beach the apartments-
Merv: Oh yeah right out on the-
DeForest: Yes.
Merv: Everyone always fights for those.
DeForest:  And all we did was sleep we were so you know with the jetlag and the whole thing so I had been down to the pool a couple of times and found that it wasn’t too- hi Bob how are you? That it wasn’t-that’s Bob Sallin
Merv: We know.  
DeForest: Yeah we saw him. You put the camera on him, handsome. We had, Carolyn had not been out of the unit hardly at all and I had wondered out. I went to the swimming pool and I found the usual thing, signing autographs and that sort of thing. And I thought well that’s no fun so, but I did see this beautiful coral reef running out to sea and I said, “Carolyn” I said “before we go back to California” I said “you gotta come out, at least walk out on this coral reef”. So we walked down these steps and there was the grass and then the beach. And as we got to the foot of the stairs this applause, tremendous applause, these people on the beach, started to applaud and I thought “My God it can’t” you know this is impossible.
Merv: Well your best performances-
DeForest: Carolyn said “just ignore it and keep walking”. I said “I can’t do that.” They just kept applauding and kept applauding. I said “I can’t do that” I said “I must go and speak to them, at least say hello.” So I walk out there, and here was Don Rickles and his wife.
Merv: Probably coming out of the coral.
DeForest: That’s right, out of the coral. Steve and Eydie.
Merv: Oh the whole gang.
DeForest: And Bob Newhart and his wife. I had never met them before. Come to find out they’re the biggest Trekkies in the world. They had seen the film the night before and they were thrilled with it. The only thing was they Eydie said that she was very unhappy about the theme, the music, and she missed the Star Trek theme. But I had to tell you that because I’ve seen them on your show so many times.
Merv: Oh I know. And I have also been there at the same time they have been at the Kahala.
DeForest: They go there every Christmas.
Merv: And the only fortunate one who is ever there is that dolphin who can swim underwater and get away from Don Rickles. Let’s show another-I can’t wait. I figure if I show enough of these clips I won’t have to pay to see the movie.
DeForest: We haven’t seen it.
Merv: Oh, well this is where Khan, or “Can” as the case may be. Richardo “Mat-ol-ban” Montalban has killed almost everybody but Captain Kirk. (Note: earlier Shatner was being interview alone, and at one point he pronounced "Wrath" as "Wroth" so Merv and Leonard had been teasing him about his pronunciation .)
DeForest: I see.
Merv: Oh you haven’t seen it?
DeForest: No I haven’t seen it.
Merv: Is there a doctor in the house?
DeForest: But I see what you’re talking about. Yes, you’ve got it here.
Merv: Another scene from Star Trek II. Watch.
When they come back from the clip William talks about Ricardo and then they go to a commercial so I ended it here. The interview continues with Bibi Besch coming out, but I have not been able to find that portion of it.
