Soul Candles adds (if that isn’t obvious enough) **soul candles**! _(and also Soul Jack o’Lanterns)_<\/p>\n

This new type of candles has the same behavior as the vanilla candles, but it burns with **soul fire which light is dimmer**.<\/p>\n

\n![Soul Candles is also available on CurseForge](https:\/\/www.curseforge.com\/minecraft\/mc-mods\/soul-candles)<\/p>\n

\n![Soul Candle crafting](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/8ad9a22ccb4d15abc285530a9d8f5ad9dbeb1f74.png)<\/p>\n

The Soul Candle is crafted in a similar way to the normal candle but with the addition of Soul Sand or Soul Soil at the bottom.<\/p>\n

Soul Candles can also be dyed by combining a Soul Candle and the corresponding dye.<\/p>\n

If you forget the crafting, it is available in the recipe book or in mods such as JEI, EMI, REI, etc. <\/p>\n
