Many believe it so, as in every scenario of which death is witnessed it is always bathed red. From bloodshed of wars, slaughters and destruction, from the redness of the skin fading as people take their last breath, from blaring warning signs representing danger and to stop.
Contrary to these observations, Death's color isn't red, but rather the opposite color always associated with red.
BLUE is Death's color. As cold as the warmth of the living leaving its body to the afterlife, as cool as the aftermath of a raging war after the fires have ceased along with countless lives, as uninviting with the absence of life.
The causes of many beings' deaths may be violent or tame but the aftermath is always serene. When the soul leaves its living body to enter a new stage of existence, cold blue eyes greets them and guides them to the doors of the afterlife.

Some may remember the Keeper's blazing red eyes as they enter the ominous door to the other side, but most remember the Reaper's gaze as they cross over and to their next destination.

A single blue eye is enough to strike fear more than the other empty socket of his right eye.
One would also expect hell or the underworld to be full of red and fire filled pits, yet Kaluwarhe is the opposite, cold instead of hot, darkened in bluish flame wisp for light, covered in glowing plant life not seen in the living world, silent save a few words from the Gods and their servants.
Not a hint of screaming red but just calming blue.
