Create a Rotting Zombie Face

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Creating a scary looking Zombie face doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive.  You can create a rotting zombie face by using toilet paper, liquid latex, white cream makeup and a five color aging make-up kit. 

Add extra layers of loose toilet paper so you can rip them open for big cuts and gashes.

Halloween Costume Make up - Undead Ghouls & Zombies

Zombie Face Makeup - Special EffectsThere isn’t a Halloween costume mask in creation that can look as realistic as a good makeup job.  However, getting that special Halloween undead look can be a trick for anyone that hasn’t used costume makeup or prosthetics before.  I know in my youth I had spent numerous hours sticking icky sticky stuff all over my face.  Desparately trying to get the desired ghoulish look for my costume and always ending up looking more like a circus clown gone bad than the horrific ghoul I had invisioned.

The problem isn’t that you don’t have the correct  costume make-up or materials, it’s just that no one ever explained how to apply the make-up.  Directions on the back of bottles and the prosthetic makeup packages leave just about everything to the imagination.   It doesn’t matter if you’re making a tiger, pirate skeleton or an undead zombie face, sometimes a little direction goes a long, long way. 

This first video is without prosthetics and just costume makeup.  Using a simple costume makeup kit you can make one creepy undead zombie.  I will be listing more halloween how to videos on using prosthetics, so stay tuned.  Be sure to let me know of your halloween costume worries and I’ll try my best to help you out.

How to Make Tombstones for Halloween

Thursday, August 16th, 2007

Nothing says Halloween like creepy aged tombstones.  Buying a single tombstone at any Halloween store can easily cost over $20 and to be honest they just don’t look all that good.   They tend to be thin and flimsy. 

In the video below you will be shown exactly what you need to make fantastic looking tombstones and how to do it cheaply.  If you are planning on decorating your yard or haunted event for Halloween, then this is a must see Halloween video.

Thursday, May 17th, 2007

This is our first post on the new blog. We intend to make this site a complete Halloween resource. This will be the place to come to find projects for making your home a haunted house or even if you want to run a Halloween charity event. We’ll also include a section on cool, sexy, and scary costumes. Lastly we’ll be including reviews from around the country on local Halloween events, such as haunted houses, hayrides, and trails.

We used to run the Terror Trail. The Terror Trail was a Halloween event for charity. We have 5 years of experience in scaring people and we’ll be spilling the beans on how to make your house or event as scary as you like. If you are running a charity event, we’ll help guide you in the complete operation of your event. From finding volunteers, to marketing, to the actual construction of your project.
