Step into the bloody side of practical effects with Dead Puppy Studios for a hands-on Horror SPFX Workshop at The Satanic Temple’s Salem Art Gallery.

Led by the FX artist behind the practical effects for Satanic Planet’s latest music video, this 18+ workshop will introduce you to the techniques used to create convincing bruises, cuts, wounds, blood effects, and other on-skin horror FX. You’ll learn how to layer color, texture, liquid latex, and blood to transform ordinary skin into something that looks like it had a very bad night.

No prior makeup or special effects experience is required. Whether you’re a horror fan, Halloween obsessive, aspiring FX artist, performer, photographer, or scare actor looking to make your character a little more disturbing, this workshop is designed to give you practical techniques you can recreate on your own.

Your ticket includes a take-home Horror FX Kit with a bruise wheel, liquid latex, blood, and applicators so the carnage doesn’t have to end when the class does. Attendees will also receive 10% off FX makeup supplies at The Magic Parlor.

Come ready to get messy, make something gruesome, and leave with the skills—and supplies—to create your own horror effects.

This workshop uses liquid latex. Attendees with a latex allergy should not participate in latex-based applications.

Tickets: $106.66
