You might look at the Sorcerer's Candle and wonder to yourself, quite rightly, how it is a tribute to the latest and last [Harry Potter film](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/harry-potter-x-casetify-collection). Its spinal cord aesthetic makes it look like something more appropriate for a Halloween party or even a doctor's office.

Designed by [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tarotandreading) seller Daniel Tyrkiel, the Sorcerer's Candle pertains to 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows' in that it fights the dark just like Harry and his friends will fight the Dark Lord and his followers. Tyrkiel urges, "Prepare for this battle, light the Sorcerer's Candle on July 15th and repel darkness."

Priced at 89 pounds for every set of three, the Sorcerer's Candle is a unique way to celebrate the last epic battle of the series.
