Who we are
OccultFX is the online shop of FX Creator — a Czech-based SFX lab founded by Vlad Taupesh and Jozef Rarach.
What started as a small workshop creating custom silicone masks and prosthetics for film sets and theatre stages grew into something much bigger. Today FX Creator runs a full SFX studio, a professional makeup school, and OccultFX — an online shop trusted by artists across 24 countries.
Every product we carry has been tested on real productions — because we use it ourselves.

Occult FX Shop
Our founders
Behind every mask is a maker. Vlad Taupesh and Jozef Rarach founded FX Creator after years working on film sets and theatre productions across Central Europe. Two artists, one shared obsession — bringing creatures to life with materials that actually perform. OccultFX is where they share that obsession with the world.
Our values
Pro-grade quality
Every product is tested on real film and theatre sets. If it doesn't perform under stage lights, it doesn't make it into the shop.
Skin-safe materials
We only work with platinum silicone and dermatologically tested materials. Safe for long wear, even for sensitive skin.
Community first
Built by artists for artists. We run a makeup school, share tutorials, and support the SFX community across Central Europe.
