The Key of Light is a craftable item which spawns a Hallowed Mimic when placed in any slot of any empty Chest. The world must be in Hardmode and the only item inside the Chest must be a single Key of Light in order to work.
The Hallowed Mimic is spawned as soon as the Chest is closed, destroying both the key and the chest.

Notes[]
- If utilizing Autopause, the Hallowed Mimic will not spawn until the game is unfrozen again. On Console, the Hallowed Mimic will not spawn unless Autopause is disabled.
- Nothing happens if the Key of Light is placed in any other type of storage container.
- Unlike naturally-spawned Mimics, the Chest can be placed anywhere and it will still spawn the Mimic.
- Placing a Key of Light in a Chest without closing it and directly opening another inventory interface (which is only possible if Autopause is disabled), such as that of another Chest, will not spawn the Mimic.
