- Hello lovely people!
In the video above, I recordered step-by-step how I created my "Book Of Spells" replica that has also a box inside.
My main goal was to be as accurate as possible to the original one.
It was such an inspiring journey that involved so many materials and different techniques, the entire process took more than one month.
Hope you liked it!
You can see more pictures of the Book and Costume I made here:

For those asking about the 'skin' cover of the book..
Educated guess as I use the same methods - The first stage is sculpting the detail and texture in water based clay (the orange/terracotta stuff 7:26). Then a plaster mold is taken of the sculpture (the white thick stuff painted on top 7:37). Once the plaster is dry, you can then peel off the sculpted layer of clay (7:52). Pigmented liquid latex is then painted on top in a succession of layers (8:02). Once dry you can then peel the latex off in one piece (8:12) and you have a flexible skin copy of your initial clay sculpture.
Hope this helps 🙂
Royal Robson do you have any idea what he used for the black backing on the liquid latex?
@@nicolegranieri6373 The black backing is just pigmented latex. The last couple of coats of latex will have black acrylic paint mixed in with it to give that finished look
Do you have a suggestion for a particular liquid latex? I am new to this.
@@douglasbarnett2909 Any liquid latex you can buy in craft stores. Google liquid latex (sometimes referred to as Casting Latex) and you'll find online stores near you or that will ship worldwide. Hope this helps
You know whats is the black fabric behind the “skin”cover?
( 8:17 )
Wow. This is by far the most authentic replica cover I've seen so far. Ace!
WOW. not me over here with my Dollar Tree stuff about to make the most elementary version of this spell book 😂😭 Yours is amazing
The best I have seen, hands down.
I can see why it took you a month !! Excellent job!!
Okay, this is amazing. I want it. I've never seen such detail and realism done while making the spell book from Hocus Pocus. Incredible! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🖤🖤🖤 "Booooooooook" think it'll come if I yell loud enough?
LOVE THIS!!! YOU DID THE BOOK JUSTICE!!!
Wow She is Amazing I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT AWESOME Job She REALLY Gets Into IT. GREAT Artists
He not she
This deserve 1 milion views
I would love to see a supply list and more details. Thanks for sharing!
Not going to happen. Why do people post thing to ‘show how to make it’ when they give no decryption or notes of materials? Purely to show off and not helpful!
Looks like they want click-traffic on the Facebook page, I haven’t gone to look yet to see if there’s a list there or not.
OMG...insane! I made one with hot glue & mod podge & I’m feeling super bummy about it now 😫🤷🏼♀️😂 Love this!
Bravo!! What a cool book!
That is just beautifully done man, not only looks like real skin, I bet it feels like the real deal as well… sweet !
That is amazing work. You have talent. Love it
This is the best diy replica I have seen.
good work my friend. I'm shocked this hasn't hit 1 million views. you deserve it.
You did the most accurate job compared to others...Awesome
The detail to this is absolutely incredible, you are so talented! I started my book a couple years ago but never got around to finishing. With Halloween coming up once again, I'm finally going to finish it and I came back to this video for tips. Absolutely amazing!
I don’t know what you did to make that book but that was amazing!
Holy shit!! You're attention to detail is astonishing. The book looks amazing
Wait.. is this the actual book in the movie? You did such an amazing job, there's no way this isn't the same book. Lol
Wow. Such beautiful work!!!!
Wow! Awesome! Amazing detail!
Wow so beautiful thankyou for sharing.
Did anyone else notice that the snakes at the corners appear to be biting? That the “skin” is puckered. So interesting!
Just wish you went into detail. I made one last year and I’m looking to make another with higher quality like this one. What kind of clay did you use to mold the cover?
Love all details
I’d love to buy one. 🖤
Absolutely WONDERFUL Spell Book!
But WHAT were the PRODUCTS that you used to actually make the cover & snake?
Wow wow wow. I love this!
The best one I've Seen yet. I would say tho, at that point, you're in the project neck deep anyways, I probably would've gone all out and melted some solder or aluminum to put in the snake molds so they were real metal. It's easier than you'd think
I was thinking solder as well
Saw a vid of yours in Facebook, it’s all mesmerizing!!!!
BRUNO RIBEIRO what’s her Facebook called?? The video got deleted!!
I would love to pay you to make one for me! Hocus Pocus is my favorite movie.
Same!
Amazing !! 😳😳
Nicely done..I loved this😍
Wow!!!😊
Wow!!
❤❤❤
Wow. You’re amazing
Wow, great job!!! I would like to know where you got your eye! Thank you!
I have a question. What did you use to make the “human skin” for the book? I’m thinking on making a replica myself. Please let me know. Thank you
Im definately not the creator but im pretty sure by looking at it that he used clay for the "skin" of the book. Id look for a kind of terricotta clay in a craft store or if you cant find that, try mixing red and brown paint into a white clay. It might also be a kind of rubber. Im not completely sure. Hope it helps though! Also sorry that i saw your comment so late!
He used a clay to create the form, after which he made the skin using layers of a liquid latex pour over the clay mapped out skin form in order for it to be pliable for the stitching details, and to get it as closely detailed to resemble skin as possible.
Impresionanteeeeeeee
wow 👌🙌👏👍👍
😱......................❤👍
Amazing 🙌🏼🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡🖤
wow thats amazing ❤
Wow amazing work I made one last year for my wife and it doesn't compare to yours!
Yes...I agree with everyone else...you should make a bunch and sell them, you would make bank and you have real talent...I can see you making more accessories for hocus pocus and selling those as well...Think about it
He can’t. The book design is patented to The movie
would love to get casts from those molds lol. im wanting to build one that has a working eye. my sculpting skills are lacking sadly lol.
È bellissimo Ottimo lavoro!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent replica of the real book just would have been nice to have earlier not the day before Halloween
Did you make that eyeball too?
Do you sell them?! Id love to buy one. This is amazing!!!
I'm thinking the same thing
Since you made moulds......do you sell the snakes and other parts?
I wonder what kind of medium (the black liquid) was poured into the snake corner and binding molds? Any guesses?
I want one so bad! 😫
What did you make your molds out of? Very good idea if you are making these for customers.
This is awesome and and amazing but let's be real. MOST people do not have the supplies or talent to make this. I would struggle so bad.
Omg, this is fantastic! Great job, do you make and sell them too?
Just wondering if you would ever make one to sell and if so how much?
🤯🤯😍😍😍
I want to buy one too :)
Ohhh please make a tutorial for the costume I’m dating to make one please your work is amazing
This is a tutorial
I would also like to know what was used to make the skin for the book? I hope you can answer our question or give use some kind of feed back cause I notice that this question was asked about 3 months ago and we are all still waiting for a response. Please don’t keep your fans in the dark. Thank you

To me it looks like he made a mold for the cover/skin. He used clay to design out what he wants the skin to look like. Then he made a mold out if it. Then he used something like Silicone Rubber poured into the mold. When dried he painted it...
Most likely it looks like he sculpted the details with Clay (non sulfur), made a silicone block mold, then cast them in resin and hand painted them to look like metal. The skin looks to be either faux or real leather, but judging from the backing on it I'm guessing faux.
Whoops what I thought was skin was just the box liner. He definitely sculpted the skin, then cast it. Just off the look of it I'd guess a dragonskin silicone. But don't forget that silicone can only be painted with more silicone.
No replies to any of the comments actually 🙄😠
Where did you get the eye?
Would you ever make one to sell?
Euh ... Do you sell it ? 😍😍
So I shouldn't just dip my book in the sink 😬
Wow do you sell them
