When you think of Halloween colors, a few probably come to mind: black and orange for sure, but potentially also purple and green. But one TikToker created an incredibly spooky outdoor Halloween display using a color combination not commonly seen at Halloween time: blue and red.

@TheHalloweenPage posted a video tutorial on how they set up their spooky display using color changing LED lights. They used the

@TheHalloweenPage used this set of plug-in LED floodlights from Amazon. Each light comes with its own remote that allows you to change the color to one of the 16 available options. And according to the TikToker, they only used the four lights included in the pack to get that super-spooky effect (one set to red and three set to blue).
