🕯️ Horror Candles: A Blend of Terror and Nostalgia

At Hex and Wax, we don’t just pour wax—we conjure the excitement and nostalgia of horror tales. Our original horror candles are more than scented décor; they’re stories wrapped in smoke, shadow, and flame. Each one is handcrafted by our wife-and-husband team, and every flicker tells a tale. And the best part? ALL candles come with a short horror story written by our team! Every story is completely original. 

Why Horror Candles? Because ambiance matters. Horror isn’t just a genre—it’s a feeling. Do you remember that movie that scared you so badly as a little kid that it now evokes feelings of chills and nostalgia? Horror sticks with us. Our horror candles capture those moments. Whether you're setting the scene for a Halloween party, curling up with a gothic novel, or simply living your best spooky life year-round, these candles cast a scent as haunting as their stories.

What Makes Ours Different?

• Original horror stories written by our wife-and-husband team of two. We are lifelong horror fanatics and love to create our own original tales to share with you! 
• Hand-illustrated labels unique to each tale, hand-drawn by Eric (the husband part of the team of two.) 
• Atmospheric scents like aging parchment, grave soil, or ghostly lilac.

Fan Favorites from the Graveyard

Even our discontinued horror candles leave a lasting impression:

Cursed Mirror — A ghostly blend of oud, tonka, and powder. Now laid to rest.
'Til Death Do Us Part — The smell of soft rose petals and sandalwood. A Valentine's Day favorite. 

But don’t mourn too long—new terrors always rise.

Coming Soon…

Our Fall 2025 Horror Candle Collection launches August 1st. No spoilers yet—but let’s just say the stories may follow you long after the wax has melted.
