Melania Trump's blood red Christmas decorations have given us the gift of memes

A real life horror film.

Melania Trump and team attempted to "Be Best" this holiday season, but the White House Christmas decorations are still getting brutally mocked.

After the FLOTUS shared a minute-long video on Monday to show off the 2018 presidential "American Treasure" themed holiday decorations, Twitter users couldn't help but critique the, uh, unique ways the administration chose to deck the halls.

From the blood red trees straight out of The Shining, to the variety of confusing crafts that displayed the first lady's "Be Best" slogan, the White House decorations got straight up trolled.

Here's a closer look at some of the other decorations featured throughout the White House — including pencil wreaths and a golden replica of the New York city skyline — so at least you know they're not all concerning or blood-colored.

At least the Trump's didn't decide on an extra dark Game of Thrones theme.
