“It is unknown and a mystery; black is full of darkness which makes it a mystery.”
“Womp womp. ”
“The Grim Reaper is dark black.”
“Grief. Extreme sadness. Color of clothes at a funeral. Death’s robe.”
“Dim. The End. Utter nothingness.”
“Nothingness.”
“Black because it’s a sad colour, and when someone dies, it’s sad.”
“Death is the absence of life. Black is the absence of light.”
“Black is emotionless, when you die you become emotionless. No emotions, no feelings—nothing. ”
“In most media, the Grim Reaper wears a black robe.”
“When you die, everything goes black.”
“You see nothing but pitch-black darkness after you die.”
“A void of darkness and nothingness to greet you but the Grim Reaper.”
“Life is a bright color, like white or yellow. Death implies the opposite of that, and the opposite of bright is dark. White represents beginning, like the beginning of life, a new canvas for an artist to paint on. Black represents the opposite of that, like the artist has no more to paint on and can’t add anything more.”
“Death is black because it’s haunting.”
“It’s dark and when you die you see nothing, so black.”
“Death is black because it represents the void, lack of consciousness, the final resting place of us all.”

“It’s neither good—white—or bad—black. It’s neutral.”
“Black is generally viewed as a ‘bad’ colour, but death isn’t necessarily bad, nor is it good.”
“Color of the gravestone.”
“It’s sad and empty, but not necessarily final. Even once something has left us, it is still carried on in our stories, our photographs, our legends and our hearts.”

“White is the absence off all things, and white it nothingness, you know?”
“Sometimes, after someone dies , it feels blank , and white is a colour of blankness and a bit of confusion and it’s a bit sharp like the blade of a knife.”

“Death is yellow because it’s a part of life and something we all need to embrace.”

“Death is found in life and life is found in death. They complement each other. Green is the color of life, and life leads to death, yet death likewise leads to life.”
