How do you color a scene to make it look gothic?

I have an editing question. I been working on a zombie movie and right now I'm stuck at trying to color the scene in a Gothic hue. What would be the best way in color correction to create this look? The look I'm going for is the scene in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey when they died.

Thank you in advance!

A lot of that scene has to do with blue colored lights on set, while shooting though, and not done so much in post. So I don't think you could get it that blue, unless you change the hue and tinting around a lot, but doing so, could make the scene look too much like a completely different movie, from the rest of your footage, so it depends on how much of a mismatch you are okay with.
