It's special because it's not a flame: it's LEDs.

At one remove, it's all photons but I think personally this is a bit of an artifice: I don't see a role for the Greek actresses to dress up and.. put the AAA batteries in.

Story telling demands artifice.

There's no Santa Claus kids. Sorry. It's LEDs. But, it is pretty.
