About this project
What does Soul Candles add?
Soul Candles adds (if that isn't obvious enough) soul candles! (and also Soul Jack o'Lanterns)

This new type of candles has the same behavior as the vanilla candles, but it burns with soul fire which light is dimmer.
Crafting

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.

Soul Candles can also be dyed by combining a Soul Candle and the corresponding dye.
If you forget the crafting, it is available in the recipe book or in mods such as JEI, EMI, REI, etc.
