SINGAPORE, Dec 28 — In the world of modern love, where swiping right is just as likely to lead to heartbreak as to a soulmate, one Singapore-based spiritual service has decided to step in and offer a rather... unconventional solution.

Enter the "bloodworm love spell,” an offering from the self-proclaimed magical powerhouse, Element Mustika.

The service, priced at a neat S$500 (RM1,608), promises to mend broken hearts, reunite estranged couples, or maybe — just maybe — give that crush the nudge they need to make the first move.

Led by Ajarn James, a Thai practitioner from Chiang Mai with over two decades of mystical experience, this love spell service touts a rich history passed down through ancient texts and his own prestigious lineage.

For the price of a few dinners out, the spiritually inclined provide photos and details of their intended target and then... wait. Yes, it’s the waiting game, as the spell slowly works its magic.

Element Mustika is adamant that their rituals are the real deal, with customer testimonials flowing in, claiming that the spells "drastically improved my love life,” and, in one particularly bold instance, convinced a partner to "break up with the other girl and return to me.”

But of course, not everyone’s sold on the concept. Reddit’s vast ocean of internet commentators hasn’t been shy in expressing their views.

One user lamented that the service exploits the heartbreak of the vulnerable, saying, "Heartbroken or lovestruck individuals will do anything, sadly. It is despicable that people capitalise on this vulnerability.”

Others, however, are less critical, even finding a certain charm in the sheer audacity of it all.

"Desperate people from all walks of life still purchase these services in this modern era,” one user pointed out, while another noted that such rituals are especially popular among the "free-spirited” younger crowd, likely those who haven’t yet sworn off astrology apps.

Whether or not Ajarn James’ bloodworm love spell actually works is still up for debate.

But one thing is for sure: love, in all its messy, confusing glory, will always have a market for those looking for a little extra magic in their lives.
