Yes gelatin is sticky
Gelatin is made from collagen, the tissues that hold things in our bodies together. It can be produced from most animals, though cows and pigs are the most common because the skins and bones are readily available after butchering. After using an acid to remove excess fat and oils, these products are ground up and boiled to chemically alter them, and the gelatin is extracted. It would be difficult to make your own gelatin, especially in avoiding spoilage.
If you wish to be a gelatin mold, you should find out what a gelatin mold looks like. The most common are body parts; brains, hands, eyeballs, etc.. Your idea is obviously original. I have never seen this done. Once you know what your costume will look like, you can be creative and decide which material you will use. You can make your own or have a professional create it for you.
No Gelatin is a thickening/hardening agent created by boiling animal (bovine) bones.

Gelatin is a natural protein, collagen, that comes from the skin and bones of animals. Usually, gelatin is taken from pigs (ie pork) or cows, but may also be made using chicken or fish.
The gelatin in Advil Liqui-Gels is made from the collagen of animals. The animals connective tissue, skin, and bones are used to make gelatin.
Yes,the gelatin used to make things like jello does come from animal byproducts.
Some candy is vegan, and some are not. Look out for milk products, gelatin and cochineal (made from insects), on the ingredient list. Better still, make your own.
