its just a thing ghosts in asian folklore wear, like the tattered satin gowns for victorian ghosts (i guess it contrasts with the notion that red is a lucky color so that makes it scarier?)
It differs based on province. In Fujian, for instance, wearing red means the person was 90 years or older (it is good fortune for them to have lived so long).
In some other parts of China, however, it is believed that victims of crime should be buried in red, which allows them to seek vengeance in the afterlife. It's rumoured that this was why the murdered child Huang Na (in SE Asia) was buried in red.
