There is difference between special effects and visual effects. Special effects are created using make-up, controlled explosions or Squirting blood using pipes. These does not always need softwares. Special effects can be seen in movies like Final Destination. The blood squirting & Explosions are generated using real materials close to real ones.
If you want to apply such effects using softwares, then they are classified as Visual Effects. They are generated using softwares. They can be seen in Final Destination 5. The blood and Explosions is computer generated and not real.
According to your question, Visual effects are what you need. For creating visual effects you need to know one of the softwares like Adobe After Effects, Eyeon Fusion, Real Flow, Nuke and many more.
For creating visual effects for a beginner, one should try Particle Illusion. It provides basic presets for explosion, sparks, fire, particles, etc.
But for creating complicated and high end visual effects one needs to know softwares that allows user to play with particles and develop effects from scratch. Softwares which provide this are Autodesk 3Ds Max, Autodesk Maya & Real Flow.
For the blood effect mentioned in question, one should go for Real Flow as it provides realistic liquid flow. But again Real Flow doesn’t render final output independently. It depends on 3rd party renderers or other softwares like Autodesk 3Ds Max or Autodesk Maya to create Mesh for its renders.
