The Driskill Hotel in Austin, Texas is a place where Southern grandeur and ghost stories intertwine. Built in 1886 by cattle baron Jesse Driskill, the hotel has hosted lavish balls, political gatherings, and countless whispers from beyond. Guests have reported flickering lights, phantom footsteps, and the sound of children laughing when no one is there. Beneath the opulent décor and velvet lounges lies a history that refuses to rest.

Scents of peppercorn, aged leather, and orange peel transport you to a candlelit corner of the Driskill—where bourbon lingers in the air, boots echo against marble floors, and the line between the living and the dead feels just a little too thin.

Each candle comes with a QR code to scan to learn about the haunted history!

Haunted History

Ingredients

All candles are made with 100% domestically-grown soy wax, fragrance oils, and organic cotton-core wicks. The fragrances we use are paraben-free, phthalate-free, and are never tested on animals.

How to use

Following Candle Care helps to ensure product quality + longevity. We highly recommend following each of the following steps:

Trim your candle's wick to 1/4" before each lighting or once your candle has cooled.

Never attempt to trim a burning candle.

Discard the snipped portion in the trash; never leave wick trimmings in your candle jar.

The wick should always remain centered and away from the sides of the vessel.

Allow the wax to melt to the edges of the jar during each burn to prevent tunneling.

 

Safety first - because candles contain a small flame, we encourage following these rules:

Never leave a candle burning unattended, near a draft, or in reach of children or pets.

Don't burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time.

Stop burning your candle when only 1/4" of wax remains.

Do not pick up a burning candle or immediately after it's been blown out.

Protect the surface underneath the candle no matter the material.
