Mix Together

1/2 tbsp corn starch1 tsp water1/4 tsp corn syrup3/4 tsp onion flakes (1 tsp corn flakes or bran flakes will work, too)1 drop red food coloring1 drop yellow food coloring

Clump the mixture onto your skin, keeping in mind that the red food coloring will leave a light stain after the scab is removed. As the scab dries, it will look darker and the clumps will become more prominent. To make this gore, just whip up a batch of our Gross Blood recipe, and make a hunk of Fake Flesh. Make twice as much Fake Flesh as Gross Blood. Drop bits of fake flesh in the blood. If you have more blood than flesh, you will end up with prop blood that has a marbled pink hue to it and freezes mid-flow.
