The fake torch would be protected all the time while the real one would be standing right where none would look, one of the wall torches would be the real one, for example, if it is somewhat different in desing, all of them may be so or a simple illusion spell might disguise it.I would also consider using some unique monsters, thus I would modify driders to make a unique group of ghostly dead elven souls that are tortured nowadays, they would eb responsible for the webs.I would too add some scrolls to the mix, the rogues could use it with use magical device, for example. I would also consider having some kind of ghost effect on the whole place, like ghosts that scream and make listen harder or that follow the group al the time while speaking endlessly, make it a childish ghost that means no harm and let the players deal with it...Well, I may stop before making what I would surely do in this kind of situation... turn this into a group of sessions instead of a single encounter... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
