Self-Snuffing Torch (5e Trap)
From D&D Wiki
Self-Snuffing Torch[edit]
Magic trap
This seemingly ordinary torch burns slightly brighter than usual. A successful DC(10) Arcana check can determine that this torch is imbued with a harmless magical effect.
Whenever a creature approaches within 30 feet of this torch, it automatically snuffs itself out. Once a creature leaves that radius, it lights itself again.
By itself, this trap is at most a minor nuisance for a typical adventuring party. For most devastating effect, use it in concert with other traps when your party least expects to be plunged into darkness, and has no darkvision-gifted members among their ranks.
