Annemehr:
I wondered, too, but then I checked, and everything about all the
ghosts is silvery when any color at all is mentioned.  Even Moaning
Myrtle blushes silver.  Of course, that doesn't *rule out* unicorn
blood for the Bloody Baron!

Annemehr:
I'd love that!  Voldemort drifts back resentfully to Hogwarts as a
ghost, and attempts to usurp the Bloody Baron at the top of the
pecking order.  But to his eternal consternation, the Bloody Baron
overmatches him easily.  In fact, Moaning Myrtle is quite satisfied to
find that even she can kick around her one-time murderer.  The great
Lord Voldemort is finally forced to haunt the house-elves' lavatory
forever.  heh, heh, heh...
