witchfire

Eerie supernatural glow

Witchfire is an eerie, flickering light with no apparent source—the kind associated with marshes, graveyards, and supernatural activity.

The term evokes folklore about will-o'-the-wisps and ghostly flames that lure travelers astray.

In fantasy and gaming contexts, witchfire often names a magical green or blue flame with occult properties: The necromancer's hands crackled with witchfire.
