Switzerland’s Night Folk were a bit different. They did not play music. You would only hear their cries. They were also more malevolent, as they would aggressively kidnap people and cause destruction. Worse yet, they would herald a plague or natural disaster.

Many believed that The Night Folk were an omen that would signal what the coming year would be like. If they played a pleasing melody, then the upcoming year would good and prosperous. If their music was a horrifying, wailing, cacophony, then the next year would be full of misfortune and sorrow.

Similarly to the Wild Hunt, it is not advised to block the path of The Night Folk. Doing so will bring disaster and ruin upon you. If they approached your home, you were expected to open the doors on both sides, to allow them to pass through. You would do the same with your gates.

The Night folk have a fondness for musicians. If they encounter a musician, they will offer to teach them a new melody or how to play one of their unique instruments. If the person agrees, then they are never seen again. It is believed that they were enchanted to join the Night Folk for eternity.

Wails, laments, and music can be heard as The Night Folk trudge on. Their music has an otherworldly quality. Like the tales of the Fae and Sirens, this music can entice mortals to follow them. Those that do, are never seen again.

So, when and why did it change from white to green?

My initial thought is that green is a more eerie and creepy color.

Crap, now I kind of want to fall down this rabbit hole.
