The soul lantern is a block that emits light. It is a variant of the lantern crafted from the soul torch.
Soul lanterns drop themselves when broken with any tool or without a tool, but pickaxes mine them the fastest.
Soul lanterns can generate in ancient cities.
Soul lanterns can be placed on the top or bottom surfaces of most solid blocks, although some require sneaking. More information can be found at Opacity/Placement.
When placed below a block the soul lantern appears to hang. They connect to chains seamlessly.
Soul lanterns can be placed (if a support platform is presented) or hanging (if a ceiling block is presented). The type of the block (solid, opaque, transparent, etc... given the block has top/bottom solid surface) does not affect the ability to hang of a soul lantern, similar to torches. Press use on the targeted block or a block adjacent to the air block the soul lantern is going to occupy to place it. If the latter is used and both the support/ceiling block is presented:
If the object the soul lantern is placed on receives a block update that does not support the placement of the soul lantern, it is removed and dropped as an item (e.g: soul lantern on a trapdoor and the trapdoor is flipped).
The soul lantern emits a light level of 10, five levels less than the normal lantern. Due to their lower light level, soul lanterns do not melt snow or ice.
When the Render Dragon Features for Creators experiment is enabled in Minecraft Preview, the inside of soul lanterns emits colored point lighting with
#36d9e6. The casing of the soul lantern blocks a part of the light and casts some shadows around the lantern.
Soul lanterns repel piglins but not piglin brutes.
The soul lantern is destroyed when the piston tries to push it. It can't be pulled by the sticky piston.
