Lantern

A Lantern is an item found in Red Dead Redemption.

Characteristics
Lanterns, which burn some kind of oil or gas, are sometimes used in place of electric lights in Red Dead Redemption. When shot or otherwise broken, they explode in a fireball similar to that caused by fire bottles. The area immediately surrounding the lanern will burn for a short period and people and animals touched by the flames will catch fire, sometimes being killed. If a NPC is burned by a lantern destroyed by the player, it may result in a bounty on the player if witnessed.
