• This item serves as part of the background lore and atmosphere, contributing to the depiction of Auntie Ethel’s sinister creations.

• Insanity’s Kiss can be found at the end of the Overgrown Tunnel in the Acrid Workshop.
• It is set on a stone shelf alongside ten other dangerous potions created by Auntie Ethel.
