witchlight
Eerie marsh glow
Witchlight is an eerie, pale glow associated with supernatural or magical sources—the kind of cold luminescence that might emanate from a witch's spell or hover over marshland in folklore.
The word appears primarily in fantasy fiction and games: The cave was lit only by witchlight.
It suggests something uncanny rather than warm or welcoming.
