My Creepy Card 2Biagio FasanoThis eBook contains the evolution of the effect previously covered in Volume I, but its understanding and execution does not require reading the previous one, although it is highly recommended. The effect is totally impromptu, semi-automatic, quick to perform (only eight cards are used), does not require any complex card magic technique, and introduces for the spectator the possibility of secretly associating "Yes" and "No" with a single or double clap of the hands, in response to the few questions that the mentalist will ask during the experiment so that he cannot apparently know what the viewer... | $4.90 to wish list | |

Aether #12: Polaroid Princess IIGregg WebbTurn a card trick into something much more relatable - a stack of instant photographs taken just minutes ago. Polaroid Princess was an effect Gregg kicked around for hours on the phone with the great mentalist Bob Cassidy. He liked the idea. This is a further development of the same idea. You will need some form of instant camera, be it a classic Polaroid camera or any regular camera with a Zero-ink portable instant photo printer. 1st edition 2022, PDF 3 pages. | ★★★★★ $4.95 to wish list | |
Aether #17: Who Really Wrote the Expert?Gregg WebbGregg teaches two methods for the same trick. The question this trick tries to answer is who was the famous author of The Expert at the Card Table? This trick will probably not provide any deep insights into this question but it may produce laughing, weeping, protesting, or other human emotions because the subject of Erdnase can evoke some very strong ones. One method is based on equivoque, the other uses a Himber wallet. 1st edition 2022, PDF 3 pages. | $4.95 to wish list | |

Triplets 7Gregg WebbFollowing the mentalism issue of Triplets 6, this one, Triplets 7, will also be mainly mentalism, specifically about Equivoque. I learned a lot about this, with 5 objects, from Max Maven's video, and at the same time, I discussed this with Charles Reynolds who in turn discussed it with Pat Page. Then I put in some work of my own and came up with a very practical way of working this. I will go into every detail. Every mentalist I have shared this with thought my procedural changes worthwhile. Next, I will go through every object I can think of with which to do this feat. I once saw Kreskin do it with... | ★★★★★ $4.95 to wish list | |
Verbal AmnesiaMike KempnerFrom the creator of Mathematical Amensia comes its creative counterpart, Verbal Amensia. How would you like to cause any spectator lose the ability to speak? I have studied hypnosis for quite some time, and this is the easiest application of a secret principle that I consistently use with 100% success, and you will be able to do so also immediately after reading this manuscript. You give a piece of paper to the spectator (not a stooge) on whom you will perform Verbal Amensia with some very simple instructions on it. You have another spectator (again, not a stooge) confirm that what is written on that piece of... | ★★★★★ $4.99 to wish list | |
Brain BrackingMike KempnerBrain Bracking represents my innovative take on the "Think of Any Word" plot, and unlike the traditional methods, with Brain Bracking you can immediately perform with a 100% success-rate after reading this manuscript. Also, unlike the traditional method which involves a "process" requiring a tremendous investment of time and energy, Brain Bracking is done without any fishing and without any questions - questions apparent to the audience that is. The method involves an instant stooge and you will have to ask the instant stooge a question. This is the powerful "think of ANY word" plot, done... | ★★★★★ $4.99 to wish list | |
Silent WhisperMike KempnerHonesty. Integrity. These words form the foundation of our society. Without people being honest and without people having integrity, our world would crumble into a place of bad intentions and negative actions. In this routine, you will apparently hypnotize a spectator to not resist lying, even when pressed to tell the truth. Good thing it’s just “hypnosis”, as your power to control the intentions and actions of people in this act will have people believing that you can truly alter the way in which society operates in a world characterized by both truth and deceit. Specifically, you... | $4.99 to wish list | |
Twenty Stunners with a Nail WriterFranklin M. ChapmanThe nail writer is an extremely powerful tool for the mentalist. It's origin is unclear. One of the earliest references can be found in the book Spirit Slate Writing and Kindred Phenomena, written by William. E. Robinson and published in 1898. Therein it was called "The Thumb Pencil Carrier". This booklet will give you an easy start using this gimmick. Paul Fleming wrote: We have had a high opinion of the "nail-writer" ever since, a good many years ago, Paul Rosini gave us a demonstration in which he used this tiny piece of apparatus. Of course, it does not follow that, just because Mr. Rosini produces a near-miracle with the aid of this "fake," all magicians... | ★★★★★ $5 to wish list | |
Sh-h-h--! it's a secretTed AnnemannAnnemann describes a wealth of forty pieces in this wonderful booklet. The first, "Call me up sometime" is a beautifully direct telephone miracle. This is a prime example of Annemann's mantra of 'effect before method'. I found the following line from Annemann's introduction funny: I like to do these things so well that someday I'm going to write a twenty page introduction and follow it with one trick! Trouble is, however, that after that harangue the trick will HAVE to be good. 1st edition 1934; 50 pages.

Five Mind Reading Acts ExposedunknownFive Mind Reading Acts Exposed was written prior to 1940 and upon reading the 12 pages of instruction you realize that everything old is new again. Although all the routines are designed for a two person act some of the ideas contained can be adapted for a single performer. No author is credited and it is a compilation of secrets of acts of that era. Act No. 1 is the reading of dates on coins sealed in envelopes. Today’s mentalists could combine this with Psychometry and Cold Reading to use as a feature in their act. Act No. 2 is a preamble to the question answering act of Falkenstein.... | ★★★★★ $5 to wish list | |

Easy Simple PredictionRaphaël CzajaEffect: The magician spreads a packet of five cards (from Ace to 5 of mixed suits) face up and a spectator thinks of one of them. The magician squares the packet, telling the spectator that among these cards, there is one card with a different back. The spectator says the name of his card out loud. For example, the 3 of Diamonds. The magician shows that any of the other cards could have been thought of and he deals the selected card on the table. He turns the remaining cards face down and clearly shows only Bicycle backs. The spectator turns over his card revealing the only Tally-Ho backed... | ★★★★★ $8 $5 to wish list |
