Fill a large pot with 4 quarts of water and stir in a generous pinch of salt along with a few drops of black food coloring. Bring to a rolling boil.

Once boiling, carefully add spaghetti and cook for 10-12 minutes until al dente. The spaghetti will turn a deep black.

Drain the pasta in a colander, avoiding rinsing to preserve the color. Transfer to serving plates.

Drizzle sauce of choice (tomato or Alfredo) and add toppings like black olives, mozzarella, or zucchini.

Serve immediately with themed decorations for a spooky atmosphere.
