The Ultimate Fake Blood Recipe

Posted October 24, 2011 by Sunny Subramanian

Have y’all decided on a Halloween costume yet? If not, peta2 has some supa-fab ideas for animal-rightsy get-ups that are bound to get people talkin’.

For instance, we think you’d look amazing (in a creeptastical way) if you dressed up as a flesh-eating zombieEvil Ronald, or Colonel Sanders. Not only will you be speaking up for animals, you might also win a Halloween costume contest or two—especially if you rock it out with gooey fake blood!

Yep, we’ve been busy in the kitchen whippin’ up the perfect recipe for fake blood, and we’ve got it down to a T. You’re welcome. ;)

Fake Blood

3 bottles light corn syrup

1 empty gallon jug

4 bottles red food coloring

  • Pour the corn syrup into the jug.
  • Fill the jug halfway with water.
  • Pour in the food coloring.
  • Shake the living hell out of the jug until everything is well mixed.
  • Fill the rest of the jug with water and shake again.

If you want to make it thicker, just add more syrup.

What are you going to be for Halloween? Are you gonna get all gory with our fake blood recipe or what?! :)

    I am going to be a zombie for Halloween. I could TOTALLY use this. Does anyone know where I can get a poster that says “Flesh is for zombies?” I saw a picture of someone holding something like that a while ago…

    My fake recipe uses corn syrup, Kool-Aid, and cocoa powder. The cocoa powder helps make it dark and realistic. Surprisingly, I’ve used this many times in my “zombie moods” and it hasn’t stained me. It will dry in place, so you can making “dripping blood” that won’t keep dripping.

    I don’t know the exact recipe, I just mix the ingredients together until it looks right. I microwave my corn syrup a little before I mix stuff in so it isn’t difficult to blend the ingredients :3

    I think this would be good for protests too! Is it sticky or oily? And does it keep for a while invade you don’t use all of it?

      It’s sticky. I would recommend just making enough for one-time use.

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
