Green/ living wood can burn odd colors, it could also be the sap burning.

Is the fire burning in a tree? Or is the tree growing around a fire?

Isn't wood fire normally yellow because of the excess carbon?

I've seen these before, they are crazy and scary. The roots of some trees will interconnect and you can have a wildfire burn and the fire will hit a barrier like a road, stream or firefighters stop it. However the sap in the roots will burn/smolder, like coal in a coal mine, and travel through the roots and up another tree until it comes in contact with oxygen and start the fire again.

That‘s the Scientific explanation. A different explantion‘s that it‘s probably the outcome of a Squirrel trying to start a bonfire

No, that's the Upside Down. I've seen Stranger Things, I know Barb died in there, you can't fool me.
