As it turns out it means "corpse candle", and they're lights that are supposedly seen at night bobbing around graveyards. I went to look for pictures, and funnily enough, pretty much all of what came up are from things I've posted here and on Basenotes.
See, that's why I started the thread. Your name in particular always intrigued me, as it didn't even seem like an English word (too many consonants, not enough vowels) --- is that a Welsh word? Usually when you have "w" and two "l"'s together it tends to be from Welsh...
