While they usually let off a quite harmless and warming ambiance, something changes for candles on Halloween and their once innocent aura then radiates a more sinister feel.

That uneasy feel multiplies tenfold with these incredibly unique and brilliantly detailed skull candles that leaks ‘blood’ as the flame melts the wax.

Despite it not being quite as menacing as these fireproof skulls that turn your fire pit into a burial ground, it still does well to make guests uncomfortable and serves as the perfect decor, for not just Halloween, but for your gothic home all-year-round.

Although the skull already looks great in its regular black (or grey), you’re able to treat yourself to a Boo! Skull in either vibrant red or realistic white.
