Fake Blood Recipes
[Bath in Blood] [Chocolate Blood] [Clear Blood]
[Gorey Blood] [Mint Blood] [Pail of Blood]
Bath in Blood
1 package plain gelatin or 1 package red colored Jello
2 bottle red food coloring (especially if using plain gelatin)
1 tbsp green food coloring
1 - 5 gallons of water, depending on desired thickness
Preparation:
Follow the instructions on the side of the jello package, but double or quadruple the amount of water needed, and don't add any sugar.
Doubling the water gives you a very slimy, gloopy jello which doesn't look a lot like blood, but can be fun to get kids to stick their hands into at hallowe'en parties.
If you use 5 gallons of water, you're going to have quite a thin runny blood, great for pouring over bloodied bodies in bathtubs or splashing on walls (especially if you can hose down the walls after - I wouldn't recommend this in your livingroom or parent's bedroom).
You can play around with the recipe to get the desired consistancy - gelatin is reasonably cheap and available in almost any grocery store.
Then take a bath in blood

Chocolate Blood
Looks like blood, splatters like blood, dries like blood
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
3 or 4 tablespoon corn syrup
1/2 to 1 teaspoon red food coloring
2 drops yellow or green food coloring
Preparation:
Mix the cocoa powder thoroughly into the water before adding the other ingredients - it may help to use warm water.
After adding the rest, blend the concoction well, and then wait for it to settle a bit.
Either skim the bubbles & chocolate scum off the top with the edge of a kleenex, or pour the mixture into another container.
The longer it sits, the more the cocoa tends to settle to the bottom, which oddly mimicks the effect of real blood seperating.
If you splatter this mixture onto cloth, it makes neat two-part marks which dry into pretty convincing bloodstains.
If you let it run from a victim's mouth and then let it dry, the blood darkens and cakes to the skin in much the same way real blood does.
I can also say from personal experience that any washcloth used to wipe down the 'bloody' face afterwards looks remarkably realistic, too.

Clear Blood
Clear blood liquid looks better in a wine glass.
1/2 cup Grenadine Syrup
1/2 cup Corn Syrup
1 to 3 Drops Green Food Coloring
Preparation:
Mix the Grendine and Corn Syrup
Add green food coloring one drop at a time, mixing thoroughly after each, until the pink has been taken away
Pour into a wine glass, and swirl.
Looks good under light, and moves like real blood.
If you plan to drink it, cut it half and half with water
---------------===============*===============---------------
Gorey Blood
2/3 cup Oriental 'Cherry' Dipping Sauce
1/3 cup Water
1/2 t Red Food Coloring
2 or 3 Drops Green Food Coloring
Preparation:
Mix the Cherry dipping sauce with water into a gooey consistancy.
Add food coloring.
Stir again, and let it sit in the fridge until needed.
The blood doesn't run like watery blood does.
---------------===============*===============---------------
Mint Blood
2/3 cup Corn Syrup
1/3 cup Water
5 Tablespoons Corn Starch
3 to 5 Teaspoons Red Food Coloring
2 or 3 Drops Green Food Coloring
1 Drop Peppermint extract
Preparation:
Mix the Corn starch with the water.
Add the Corn Syrup.
Mix well.
Add red food coloring into the mixture, using only 3 tsp at first.
Then add a couple drops of green food coloring to take the 'pink' edge off the red coloring.
If the mixture is too light, add one or two teapoons more red food coloring.
Add an extra drop of green food coloring if the mixture gets too pink again
(Real blood is slightly on the dark red to reddish brown side, when its not fresh from the heart).
Add one drop of Peppermint extract if you wish a fresh minty blood mixture.
The concoction tastes quite pleasant, and can be used as makeup or a "Glass of Wine" for your vampire to drink.
I've also been informed that Milk can be added (instead of or with the cornstarch) to keep the blood from being too transparent.
White glue was also given as a suggestion, but if you go that route I wouldn't suggest using the mixture on or in your mouth.

Pail of Blood
1 Liter Corn Syrup
5 Liters Water
2 or 3 Tablespoons Red Food Coloring
1/2 Teaspoon Green Food Coloring (optional)
A slosh of milk
Preparation:
Get a large pail to mix this all together.
If you do not like the consistancy you can either thin it with more water, or thicken it with sugar or corn syrup.
The exact amount of food coloring you require will depend on the brand you buy, so you may need to play around with the measurements.
If you make it too dark, just add more water again.
Adding some milk will reduce the translucent of the mixture (real blood isn't see-thru, but if you want clear blood, leave the milk out of the recipe).
Don't add too much milk or the blood will look pink!
The final product should splash like water, but be slightly shinier, and not soak into cloth quite the same way water does, leaving more of it on the outside of clothes so they look suitably bloodied.
NOTE: This will stain clothing, so don't get it on anything important.
