I don't know how familiar you all are with Silent Hill (one of my FAV movies) but I think I'm going to be one of the nurses... except instead of making that creepy faceless mask that they all have, I'm just going to wrap my head in gauze that has been bloodied and messed up... that's easy to do because I can purchase it already destroyed, but I'm more concerned about the costume itself.
I need some ideas about how to dye the nurse outfit in such a way that makes it look old, tattered, bloody, messy... I've never successfully done that before, and I don't want to spend $30 on a nurse outfit only to end up totally messing up the process. The last time I tried to make an outfit bloody it came out pink and, well, just not bloody looking. It looked like a rave kid threw up all over me, it was a disaster!![]()

Use fake blood. I was a zombie nurse last year (I have some photos in my album on here). I mixed red & black paint to make the outfit bloody. Also, if you want the dirty look, use real grass & dirt. You can use spices such as cinnamon & ground cloves, but they wash out.

Anyone figure out how to get the perfect blood stains? I'm going as the Puppet Nurse from the first game and no Silent Hill coustume is complete without blood.

Does anyone know what brand of blood I could use to drip down my arms and legs that won't stain me? I have work the next morning and, well, that could be awkward... :-D
If not, what's the best type of blood to use for this sort of thing? Am I just going to have to face the fact that my arms are going to get stained?"Eat, drink, and be scary."
