词源：
lurid(adj.)1650s, “pale, wan,” from Latin luridus “pale yellow, ghastly, the color of bruises,” a word of uncertain origin and etymology, perhaps cognate with Greek khlōros “pale green, greenish-yellow” (see Chloe), or connected to Latin lividus (see livid).
It has more to do with the interplay of light and darkness than it does with color. It suggests a combination of light and gloom; “Said, e.g. of the sickly pallor of the skin in disease, or of the aspect of things when the sky is overcast” [OED, 1989]; “having the character of a light which does not show the colors of objects” [Century Dictionary].
The meaning “glowing in the darkness” is from 1727 (“of the color or appearance of dull smoky flames” – Century Dictionary, 1895). In scientific use (1767) “of a dingy brown or yellowish-brown color” [OED, 1989]. The figurative sense of “sensational” is attested by 1850, via the notion of “ominous” (if from the flames sense) or “ghastly” (if from the older sense). Related: Luridly.also from 1650s
下面是词源的翻译（机器翻译比较难翻，参考着看）
Lurid（adj。）1650年代，“苍白，wan”，来自拉丁语luridus“浅黄色，可怕的是瘀伤的颜色，”一个不确定的起源和词源学的词，也许与希腊语khlōros“浅绿色，绿色，绿色，绿色”（参见Chloe）（参见Chloe），或与拉丁裔Lividus（见Lividus）。与颜色相比，它与光和黑暗的相互作用更多。它表明了光和阴暗的结合； “说，例如，疾病中皮肤生病的苍白，或者是天空阴天的事物的方面” [OED，1989年]； “具有没有显示物体颜色的光的特征” [Century Dictionary]。含义“黑暗中的发光”是从1727年开始的（“暗淡的烟熏火的颜色或外观” – 世纪词典，1895年）。在科学用途（1767年）中，“淡淡的棕色或黄褐色的颜色” [OED，1989]。 1850年通过“不祥”（如果是从火焰的感觉）或“可怕的”（如果是从较旧的意义上讲）来证明“轰动性”的象征意义。相关：Luridly。
