Troubled teens around the world will find the ‘planchette jewel box’ suitable for their [Ouija](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exclusive-ouija-board-planchette) board-using dark souls. From the [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mysticmorwen) store BloodMilk, these gothic jewelry boxes were created in collaboration with artist Paul Romano to showcase the inner depths of one’s soul.

The jewelry boxes are featured in a series of heart shapes with a small glass window that symbolizes the emptiness of a person’s soul more or less. The morose jewelry boxes are made from composite wood and are hand-painted, making each box stand out from other boxes. The cover of the jewelry boxes can also be used for [Ouija board summoning](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuice-ouija) to help goth teens call forth souls of damned -- if that’s more of your thing.
