What color is Benjamin Moore Witching Hour?

Benjamin Moore Witching Hour 2120-30 is a deep charcoal gray with a restrained blue cast that keeps it from reading flat or black. Its low-light depth makes it especially effective on cabinetry, interior doors, or a study wall where a darker finish can feel intentional rather than heavy. In bright daylight, the blue-gray character is easier to notice, while evening lighting draws it closer to a soft, near-black charcoal. Pair this color with crisp white trim, pale gray stone, brushed nickel, or light oak to bring out its cool, architectural edge.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 8.71%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
