I carefully place her lifeless body into the bathtub after removing all her clothes. I then return to the kitchen to check the temperature of the soy wax I have melting on the stove. The temperature must stay below 200 degrees Fahrenheit or it could begin to yellow which takes away from the quality of the candle.

After making sure the temperature is right, I return to the bathroom and cut a piece of her hair off. This will be used as a wick for my candle. I must pay close attention to the quantity of hair I remove because I’ll need a good amount to ensure that the candle burns evenly.

After several hours I check the wax to make sure it has melted. Once the desired consistency is achieved I remove it from the stove and return to the bathroom. Back in the bathroom, I begin to pour all the wax into the tub fully submerging her body. It usually takes several days for the wax to completely harden and to fully absorb her essence.

Next, I remove the now harden wax from the tub and reheat it. Once in liquid form I pour it into a large container and place the lock of her hair inside to act as a wick. I then dispose of the victim’s body because it’s of no further use to me. Everything she once was and will ever be is now within this candle and I will cherish it until the flame goes out. I am a serial killer and this is my design.
