Mentalism & Spiritism in Magic & Conjuring: page 9

Trickey is an ungimmicked keychain with a miracle built into it. Ungimmicked in any mechanical, electronic, or magnetic way. So it will last you for many years of performances without the need for any refills or consumables. The size is about 1.5 inches square. So it can be easily and comfortably carried in your pocket. But it is designed in an unusual manner so that it first starts a conversation and then ends with an impossible miracle. You can carry your car keys, house keys, or any other keys on this keychain.

With this keychain in your pocket, you are always ready to perform a miracle...

The Four Mystery Presents: Influence is a follow-up effect from a previous release. It is a three-phase card-matching mentalism routine that demonstrates your ability to influence the cards of the participant.

• No sleights
• No secret markings
• No gimmicks
• Very little memory work
• The participant has freedom in the mixing process

This effect exploits the different uses of my newly developed method featured in my book The Four Mystery Presents: Remote Viewing. The method enables you to have the participant mix the cards, and yet, the mentalist is still able to determine and control the possible outcomes.

1st edition 2021,...

Here's what your audience sees: You take a stack of business cards and show them on both sides then hand one to a volunteer to draw a picture, write a word, print a number, or even write a question, there are no restrictions. The stack is turned blank side up and their card dropped drawing side down on top. It is then fairly cut to the center where it remains reversed in the middle at all times.

Even under these conditions you can get a full card peek, reveal the information and yet still show their card reversed in the center whenever you wish.

Finally, you run through the stack and...

4. You can predict the outcome of choices of personality...

Multiple outs is one of the oldest, classic, and powerful tools in mentalism. Several classic effects and routines in the history of mentalism and magic are built around multiple outs. Some of the standard tools like a pocket index were born out of this very concept of multiple outs.

In this manuscript, we will explore the 'DOUBT' method for constructing multiple outs. This is a technique or strategy which makes multiple outs much easier and more effective for many situations. This technique uses double blank business cards and uses the core nature of these double blank cards very potently....

A special offer for the holiday setting of small groups and unknown audiences. A demonstration of enhanced empathic/telepathic awareness and influence ideal for casual events with an unknown audience. Very old techniques and methods are applied in a new way that can be entertaining but are also very impactful. There is a lot of material here beyond the effect description: presentation theory, psychology, volunteer selection, and more.

There are three different approaches for presenting this routine: Triple Influence, Prelude and Embrace. The latter two use advanced techniques of Aware&Cue,...

This presentation revives the age-old...

Dr. Q not only tells you how to describe objects in detail after having been heavily blindfolded with cotton pads and heavy adhesive tapes, but he also tells you how to present the act in its most effective fashion and what to say while presenting it.

Yes, here is the whole secret of this act, described in detail, plus complete patter and presentation. Half dollars (borrowed and unprepared) may first be placed over the eyelids. Then more than half a dozen strips of adhesive tape are placed over the eyes and pressed down tightly at all points. (Tape is also unprepared and may be borrowed.)...

Propless T.O.P stands for Propless Tossed Out Places. And it makes use of a "topless prop". Suitable venues are virtual shows and stage shows where audience members are from about 20 to about 2000 numbers. You can perform this as a purely propless effect or as an 'almost' propless effect using the "topless prop". This works great as both an opener or a closer. Propless TOP can also be adapted very easily to close up and parlor shows.

The method is completely self-working and presentation is the key. You can play this in a 'tossed out deck' effect style or you can also play this as a pseudo...

With Bending Minds 2 continues the collection of effects centered on the principle of the binary system, according to a new and innovative vision. From this second volume on, not only playing cards will be used to tell our magical stories, but also simple notes or some business cards.

We present four more effects, two with cards and two with notes, with a number of elements varying from 4 to 8. Throughout the course of the effect, the cards are subject to a dynamic, the positions are constantly changing, each time in a different way. Even more than in the first volume you will be able to...

Deadlift! No ... not the heavy compound movement that works for multiple muscle groups. Instead, this is a hard-hitting piece of mentalism that looks very clean. It is a hands-off impossible card divination that can be done with any regular deck and no gimmicks.

You riffle shuffle the cards. While your back is turned they cut to a card, they memorize it, and they bury it somewhere in the deck. You turn around, and with 100% accuracy, you can go through the cards and remove their thought-of card.

To perform this effect, you will need a very small setup that takes only a few seconds. ...

With Souvenirs d'Italie I have wanted to remember and celebrate the old, beloved tourist postcards that were the backdrop to everyone's holidays, those who lived them and those who received them indirectly, almost as an achievement for a promise kept.

Souvenir d'Italie is an effect that makes it possible to make an impossible prediction: one Italian city out of the eight depicted on the postcard is chosen, or even only thought of, by a spectator, who holds them in a bunch in his hands.

The spectator will have to distribute them face down on the table, covered by their respective place...

[Note: You do not need to own volume 1 to be able to perform the routines explained here.

Welcome to volume 2 of my Billets for the Modern Mindreader course. You will learn three switches and three routines for close-up, parlor, and stage situations, as well as casual settings.

Billet Chi (Nestor Dee): Probably the holy grail of predictions with billets. Borrow three business cards and you can do the routine. Trust me, this is great.

Telepathy Plus (Theodore Annemann): A classic revisited. A three-phase mind-reading routine. (Also doable with three borrowed business cards.)

S.E.E. (Julien Losa): A practical and quick routine to get...

This is one of the most amazing things you will ever see. Looks like real mind-reading. A spectator is given a copy of a newspaper. It can be your local paper. The paper is not gimmicked in any way. The spectator chooses a paragraph from the front page. No force. He reads the first few words and spells each word to himself. The magician instantly reveals the words the person read. This is a little-known principle that Al Mann developed in 1979 that will fool magicians.

It's a show-stopper. Use any newspaper. No pre-show, done on the spot with any person. Can be done long-distance over zoom calls....

The spectator is allowed to freely call out random numbers. Through a fair process of elimination, he arrives at a single digit. This number matches exactly a prediction that you have written down previously. This is an easy, foolproof method for apparently reading the spectator's thoughts.

Psychic entertainers, here are six more mentalism treasures for your collection, from the Nelson Enterprises vault. Volume 7 contains five mental magic manuscripts from Robert A. Nelson and a bonus: the "Master Memory" stunt, originally released by Bob Sherman. All were featured in the famous Nelson Enterprises catalog, and have been edited and updated for a new generation of performers and audiences. Here's what's included:

Any Spectator Becomes the Mindreader #512 - Mindreading in reverse. A spectator and unbelievable effect wherein any spectator reads the mindreader's mind. A strictly...

PRIZE is a quick, impromptu propless piece that you can perform anytime, anywhere to anyone. You can do this face to face in close-up, street, or parlor. Or you can also do this in a virtual show on zoom etc. You can even just do this over a voice phone call or video call if you like.

This is easy to learn, easy to perform but way up there in terms of sheer impact. Every new person you meet is a potential victim for you to perform this effect. Your victim's surprise will be your 'prize'. You will perform a stunning "Zen Mind Hack" on your unsuspecting participant which you have apparently...

"As a creator, I have a tendency to pass up on 99% of all releases and instead only take interest in those which offer me a fresh set of tools to play with...If you are looking for a wonderful impromptu mental mystery to add to your repertoire, or are looking for some new techniques to play with, you won't be disappointed here!" -Michael Murray

"I had no idea how he could have any valuable information...The more I thought about it, the more perplexed I was. It was IMPOSSIBLE. There was absolutely no way he could know anything." - Madison Hagler

This is a quick mental effect that starts with a bit of fun and ends with a stun. All you need to perform this routine is a double blank business card and a one-time preparation on it which will last you many performances and then if needed you can prepare one more double blank business card.

This is totally self-working and easy to learn. And you can start performing this almost as soon as you have read this manuscript. This is ideal for close-up and parlor situations and also can be performed in a virtual show with a slightly bigger double blank card.

Effect: The participant reads...

A master secret of the professional psychic that previously sold for the equivalent of $185.00 in today's money. That mysterious, almost mythical billet reading method as used by a select few of the best-informed clairvoyants. One of the most closely held secret routines of the profession, and to the very best of Nelson's information, known to only four living people at the time of writing.

The secret has long been sought by investigators and magicians. In fact, it is alleged that David P. Abbott tried in vain for thirty years to learn the true secret. Originated and perfected by one of the craftiest...

EFFECT : Psychosocial Test is a 3 phase routine that can be played out of your wallet anywhere anytime to a small group. Both sides of the wallet-sized Test Card contain a few random cards printed.

PHASE 1 : This is an impossible-looking matching/coincidence phase. What happens inside the participant's mind and what happens in her hands, both match exactly and inexplicably. No physical deck of cards is used. Just the Psychosocial Test Card is in play.

PHASE 2 : This is an impossible mind-reading phase with an unheard-of premise. The participant merely thinks of any of the 52 cards in...

EFFECT

1. Performer shows 4 playing cards with pictures of 4 well-known persons.
2. A participant is asked to merely think of any one of the persons in her mind. There is absolutely no force at all and it is a completely free choice.
3. Performer apparently reads her mind and writes down what he reads.
4. Performer then shows what he wrote to the participant and even explains it.
5. Participant is then asked to reveal what she had in mind and she does.
6. Performer then shows her how what she thought matches exactly with what he had written and proves in multiple ways how he was all along influencing...

A mathematical range force with routine and application ideas.

The Trinity Force is an easy yet powerful force but very little known in the field of magic or mentalism. As with any force, here too the applications of the force are limited only by your imagination. A few interesting routine ideas are shared here. But you can surely come up with many of your own routines using this beautiful force.

The actual process to force is very fast and direct. Maybe, depending on your presentation, it may take all of fifteen seconds to perform the force. Or you can stretch it for as long as you want....
