Mentalism & Spiritism in Magic & Conjuring: page 24

Imagine being able to tell someone the direction of their house when you are both stood in the middle of nowhere that you have both never been to before.

Imagine being able to get from one location to another via walking or driving without the use of maps, GPS, or compasses because you just "know where to go".

Imagine being driven to a city you have never been to before. You get out of the car and are blindfolded and taken to a new location within the city. Upon removing the blindfold you can then instantly begin walking in the direction of the car and eventually return back to it without...

Following the great response from his first ebook Horus Luca Volpe returns with his second work Nephthys. Nephthys is the name of an Egyptian god, the goddess of magic and knowledge. True to this title, if you perform these effects you will appear to have god-like powers. But don't let this get to your head, they are only magic tricks.

In this ebook Luca Volpe has incorporated many psychological aspects and basic methods to create mindblowing experiences that are 100% surefire! All of the effects come complete with script and performance tips.

The routines Luca describes are:

• DOUBLE PREDICTION:...

"When I first read 'Scribble' I had a huge smile on my face for the entire time I was reading it. I've just spent the past half an hour trying it out and an even bigger smile appeared! So cleverly constructed, it's a creation of genius!" - Iain Moran

STRANGER
Mat's 'Invisible Deck with a regular deck' opener. A cased deck of cards is placed on the table. A spectator names any card - a completely free choice. The deck is removed from the case and the named card is shown to have been impossibly predicted ahead of time.

COIN CON
Mat's 'take everywhere' coin effect. Four different...

This trick sells for $100 made up, however, using this PDF you can make it up yourself for a low cost and save some money.

Effect:

Invite 3 people on stage. No stooges or impromptu coaching. Can be any 3 people. One is given an envelope to hold before the trick even begins. This envelope is never touched again by the performer till the trick is over.

Performer has three different newspapers face down on the table. The first spectator freely selects any newspaper. There is no force of any kind! He has a free choice of any one of the three newspapers. The front page of the freely chosen...

Sean Taylor is one of the top corporate entertainers in Australia. When working to develop an original theatre show with 3 fellow mentalists, he was tasked with writing a closer for the show. It had to be clean and deceptive, it had to be easy to perform, it had to be original and it had to be, in the words of Bob Cassidy, a 'macro' effect. In other words, the WHOLE audience could join in.

Imagine then, sheets of any newspaper being circulated and shredded, a random audience member is asked to select from a bunch of these pieces which are all different and then to narrow to a single piece and then to...

This ebook explores for the first time, the principles inherent to probably any newspaper, magazine, or publication, in the world. Everybody reads them, every day, but nobody notices the rules and logic in the innocent sheets they hold in their own hands. These properties are good to know as they allow some pretty neat impromptu or improvised effects, or design your own routines, once you know their 'secrets'.

It is more a piece of knowledge every magician or mentalist should know. Most 'recipes' are simple, and there is no difficult memorization or calculation involved.

All the effects...

A brand new totally impromptu newspaper test from the twisted mind that is Nefesch. No gaffs, no gimmicks, no preparation - everything is borrowed. Any paper or magazine, any page.

This is really strong and the construction is very clever. Imagine you borrow a newspaper or magazine and a pen. Both are totally and utterly ungimmicked. The spectator has a completely free choice of the page and circles a word on the page. You are able to predict the word he or she circles. Let me repeat that the pen is not gimmicked in any way and can be borrowed. The spectator really draws a circle. The best...

Emotional:

Imagine an effect which gives you an opportunity to give a 100% accurate reading on your spectator. The spectator is asked to think of one of seven emotional words. The performer gives a highly accurate reading and as a bonus the performer reveals the thought of word as well.

Harmless:

Harmless is a Russian Roulette type of effect. The spectator is asked to examine six cards, each one has the word 'Click' on one side and 'Bang' on the other. Six envelopes are examined and any card is placed into any envelope as the performer explains that each card represents a bullet and...

Ninja Mind-Reading Secrets of the Cold War Psychic Spies is a 56 page PDF comprising of routines, ideas and thoughts.

The ebook is broken down into three parts: Scotland Yard, the CIA, and the Ninja. The book features the following routines: The Hangman's Noose*, The Baker Street Tarot, Past Life Pendulum, Unknown Caller*,...

Here's something you will put to immediate use, and continue to use it for fun and/or money. Presented by any two people, without any special scenery, costumes, props or conditions. Read the ebook, and you are ready to start. Great for clubs, lodges, fun nights, schools, Scouts, Senior Citizens, P.T.A., you name it. Very funny act with lots of built in laughs. (You can show a friend how to do it in minutes, so you don't need a regular assistant. Great for married couples.)

Imagine a deck that secretly tells you both the identity of a thought-of card and that card's numeric location, either in that deck or in another deck. Think of all the memorized deck applications this would simplify.

No memory work.

No tricky calculations to arrive at the card’s location.

Think of the myriad mentalism applications. A spectator peeks at any card in the deck and you instantly know what the card is and at what number it resides from the top or bottom of that deck or another deck. What's more, you obviously never see the back of the peeked card, which eliminates the...

Progressive anagrams

In Null Fraser shares his work on the progressive anagram. However, as we have come to expect from his previous releases, this is not the standard fare or typical approach to this system. In fact, you wouldn't even recognize the classic tool at play in these effects from the performance, unless their secrets were revealed to you fully.

This manuscript contains entirely new ideas and presentations that turn the basic concept of the anagram on its head to create a streamlined and efficient way to divine information.

No letters are spoken out loud and there is no...

Number 5 is the culmination of many years spent searching for a simple to remember, impromptu routine which delivers not only an impossible magical/psychic climax, but also a personal reading which people will remember and talk about.

This routine isn't restricted to close up use. Scott has performed it many times on stage, in cabaret and in a lecture environment using nothing more than a flip chart and a marker pen.

Versatility is something Scott tries to build into every routine he uses as part of his professional repertoire and this routine is no exception, with ideas for multiple readings...

In my methodical (and stubborn) search for effects to propose over the phone, numbers are the absolute protagonist. Except for some small stratagem, the final principle is always the consequence of one or more mathematical principles. Inspired by some well-known effects, I became curious and tried to go back to the principles, so as to be able to use them, alone or with others, to generate other interesting combinations. I think the table of contents highlights the object of this publication well:

• Difference between two numbers with reversed digits
• Table with some examples with numbers...

How would you like to be able to predict anybody's PIN number and be 100% correct every time? The victim is truly shocked when you tell him his number, how could you possibly know. Also comes with a kicker ending that will fry your audience.

[Note: Uses dual reality and requires good spectator management.]
