Spooky Skull Candle
The Spooky Skull Candle is both decorative and functional waxy flame cradled within the hollowed-out top of a humanoid skull. The candle burns with a quiet red hue and flickers when unseen presences draw near. Oh the skull can detect lesser magical entities that are within the distance, foreshadowing the evil demons.
It doesn’t repel evil… but it knows when it’t watching you, think of it as the TSA for the necromancy spirits.
Crafted by Grave Wax Artisans using ethically sourced bone remnants and enchanted bee wax. Spirit warning flicker tuned to spectral level-1 resonance.
