Dee Christopher

A number of original and unique pieces for modern mentalists, mystics and magicians interlaced with thought provoking essays on elevating performances and building your show from the ground up, regardless of whether you are a stage or close up performer.

With a focus on applicable theory as well as routines and acts, this ebook compiles several years of unpublished thoughts, explorations and the interpretation of advice given throughout Christopher's time so far working in television, on theatre stages, cabarets and close up engagements.

Astral Psychometry (the ebook) explores the 'why'...

The Red Light Reading System is Dee's favourite way to create unique and engaging psychic-style readings in a close up environment. With nothing more than a stack of specially set up business cards, you will have the power to offer insight to your participants at a moment's notice.

The Red Light System was built from real intuition and it was built in the performance arena, not sat at home writing grids of meanings for certain things. Dee does not have a fantastic memory, and he has not had much luck naturally interpreting certain oracles; but Red Light offered him an easy and very logical...

You will learn two effects: "Hollow Man" and "The Devil's Cut." Both of these close-up routines will work for the mystical and the psychological performer and the methods are completely bulletproof. These are effects that will work over and over again in real environments for real people, the instructions are simple and straight forward, no weird processes are required and they will blow the minds of your spectators.

"Hollow Man" is an effect using two regular business cards and a pen that allows you to reveal a thought from your spectators simply by hovering your hand over the card with...

Article3 is Dee Christopher's take on the classic "Three Article Test", which has previously been approached by the likes of Gene Grant (Phantini), Jack Miller and Eddie Joseph; however, all of the previous solutions have involved unjustified actions and often complicated crib sheets and processes. In Article3, all of the issues have been destroyed, leaving you with a perfect method for a wildly impressive demonstration of psychometry.

The basic effect is that three participants each hide one of three items (For instance; a coin, a ring and a watch) in their pocket while the mentalist is turned away or...

Dee Christopher finally divulges the full work on his Block concept. You could walk into a room with just this gimmick and blow the minds of the entire room, one by one.

From the closing of the book:

A professional routine. An ingenious gimmick. A versatile new take on a classic principle of mentalism.

"This is brilliant!" - Titanas

Triptic represents a package that has been evolving in concept for some time. It takes a basic principle in mentalism and turns it on it's head, burying it deeper mechanically and psychologically.

The effect is simple; three audience members are asked three questions. The performer is able to, without a doubt, prove that he knew what they were going to answer before they did.

This is a piece that is especially well suited for audiences at small after-dinner...

As mentalists, we constantly hunt for new ways to gather the secret thoughts of our audiences. We force the people we meet to think in particular ways, or find deceptive techniques to find out thoughts when we give them free reign on what to create in their minds. This manuscript deals with a solution for the latter concept.

"In the words of Borat; I LIKE!!!" - Ben Williams (Creator of Labelled/Re-Labelled)

Benefits:

• Very Organic, in terms of props and method
• Easy to do, with expansion possibilities (peeking multiple thoughts) when you become more dexterous with the gimmick.
• The easy...

"Dee shared with me this concept and I must say that is really something smart and revolutionary. Being able to spark your own creativity and let the book fit your persona as performer and not in reverse. I did this years ago with my own book tests (in Spanish) but in here Dee is giving you all that work and much more. I recommend without a doubt this great release." - Pablo Amira (Mentalism Author)

Plastic allows you to perform the classic feat of psychometry in the close up arena with an up to date presentation and a hook that will resonate with every person you meet. The effect plays exactly as follows:

You walk up to a table and place down an unopened packet of pay envelopes. After introducing yourself and meeting the characters that make up your audience for the next 7-10 minutes, you explain that you will turn away and each spectator on the table (or any two or three if you prefer) is to take any of the envelopes and place one of their credit cards inside.

They may then seal...

The Gambler's Peek

This is a simple, impromptu utility move that allows you to know the value of a freely selected card while you square up the face down deck. This move is completely invisible, yet very powerful. This move is taught from multiple angles and an easy card control is also taught to get the selection into the correct position.

Chance

Chance is an effect in which you will show your powers of influence over a spectator's decision. This is the perfect opener for a card mentalism set at a table. The premise is very simple, you remove a black card and a red card from the deck...

In 413 Dee discusses four brand new effects that he has not tipped in any other publication. Four working demonstrations of amazing mental power.

Schrödinger's Deck

A presentation and method for the light and heavy deck that will prove your powers of mind over matter. A spectator will easily lift a deck of your hand, then will be unable to do so. Easy to do and completely examinable. You are left with a normal deck of cards and box to move onto another effect. This could be done with a tarot deck if you are against playing cards in your work.

The Devil's Key

The Devil's Key is a...

This publication is slightly different to a lot of his previous work in that rather than creating new methods for effects, he's honed in on the psychological side of things and is offering some of his favorite techniques to bring effects that you already perform to the next level.

Deadly Subtleties is a collection of subtleties that you can apply to your work to create:

• Better accuracy during mind reading
• Fairer conditions when revealing peeked information
• More realistic blindfold demonstrations

The Beast contains several well thought out features and various handlings...

In September 2012, Dee Christopher lectured for over 300 magicians at the LADs convention in the UK. He taught several of his signature effects, alongside material that the magic world had never seen before.

The unpublished material, including his chair test and the the "Kill Scene" effect from his working stage repertoire created much buzz at the event and since.

This package contains a no frills video version of Dee's full hour long lecture, alongside a 40 page PDF with easy to read step by step instructions for each effect taught.

The effects and routines taught are as follows: ...

"Dee Christopher has taken the Brainwave effect to new heights with his new effect. I looked for the R/S... There was nothing. He fooled the hell out of me." - Alan Rorrison

InsaneWave is Dee Christopher's evolution of the BrainWave effect. The classic effect is that a named card is the only card in the deck with a different coloured or contrasting back design.

Dee wanted to take the effect further. Dee loved the image of spreading a deck and having multiple cards with different backs. He began work on forging a solution with several thoughts in mind.

• He wanted this deck to be normal, so that...

With Origin, Dee has compiled the vast majority of his...

‎"A captivating study on deceptive theories scarcely analysed. A compelling read for those in the allied arts and the curious alike." - Daniel Madison

Dee Christopher exposes the trickery, deception and fraud undertaken by the world's leading psychics, psychokinetics and mediums. Unlike other studies of this nature in the parapsychological world, the author's background lies in the art of conjuring, sleight of hand and mentalism. You will learn how to replicate these demonstrations.

Christopher divulges the secrets held close by these figures who have conned the world into believing their skills...

Four years have passed since I released the original Pieces at 3am. The book that came to be one of Dee's best selling collections and the single publication that spawned most variations by other artists of his original thoughts and ideas.

Dee has had the thought of doing a second volume for years, but he has never had the correct collection of effects and concepts that he felt could adhere to the original thought. All of the effects in the original book were ideas that came to him as he woke in a cold sweat at night. They were pieces that entered his conscious mind after dark, usually at around 3 am. ...
