This is what the ghost looks like after burning down

Last night we lighted up a ghost candle and this triggered quite some debate on whether the whole ghost would burn down, whether it would lose its head only, whether the wings / arms would burn in the end (i.e. will they collapse on the center or are there parallel wicks), and many more other scenarios.
24h later:
- head is gone and did partially fall back
- arms are still up
- there is now a huge amount of shapeless wax in the plate.
