Economic Will-o'-the-Wisp / Foolish Fire / Nightvale's Glow Cloud

After reading: https://www.instructables.com/id/Nightvaless-Glow-Cloud/

I knew I wanted to make one too, but I wanted to add more lighting effects while staying in my limited version. So here is a more economical version of the Nightvale's Glow Cloud that can also be an "Enchanted Will-o'-the-Wisp", aka: Foolish Fire, Fool's Fire, Fox Fire, etc...

Note: To add the different light effects while making it more affordable, I had to make it smaller, but that also means it takes up less room.

NOTE: The Cloud does not like to be photographed, so please watch the two videos below this.

You now have a switch for each candle and the switch for the lantern. You can turn some on and leave others off to get different effects.

For example:

1. With only the switch originally in the paper lantern on, you get a regular cloud.

2. With all switches on, you get an angry cloud.

3. With just the candle switches on, you get Fox Fire!

This is a recording of it with the lights out.
