Mentalism & Spiritism in Magic & Conjuring: page 18

#10 in the Psychic Sight Series

A new and greatly expanded version of an effect described in Three Mind Miracles. More methods, more ideas. Even if you have the original ebook you will want this to get all the new expanded idea.

An ungimmicked pack of 78 tarot cards is shuffled by a participant. He ensures that the cards are genuine and all different. After the cards are shuffled, three more participants are asked to come forward and join him. One of the participants removes the top five cards from the SHUFFLED tarot pack. He places the cards face up on a table so the cards are concealed from the performer's...

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The unpublished material, including his chair test and the the "Kill Scene" effect from his working stage repertoire created much buzz at the event and since.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

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.)

• Lines for Mentalists by Val Andrews ...

Ben Harris combines old school methodology with digital magic in a way that opens up a lot of presentational possibilities. The manuscript is complete with artwork to easily print out the QR code cards required. Here's the effect:

A small packet of about a dozen cards is introduced. These are "Pre-Cog Test Cards" that the performer had acquired at a recent "Minds in Progress" seminar.

One card is white with Pre-Cog test instructions printed on both sides along with a SINGLE QR CODE. The performer explains that this code can be scanned to reveal the outcome of a precognitive test. The performer...

The magician or mentalist invites a participant up and shows him a packet of cards that contains more than 20 colors. One color is written on each card. The participant selects a card and keeps the color written on it a secret. The performer says that not only will he read his mind and determine the color, but he will also project the thought-of color into anyone's mind that the first participant chooses from the audience. The participant then points to anyone in the audience and that person comes forward.

The performer stares into the second participant's eyes and says he will try to project...

The first part of two ebooks exploring the science of envelopes in magic and mentalism.

Inspired by and dedicated to the memory of Alan Shaxon

Over a 20 year period Scott has modified, adapted and developed the humble envelope into a utility tool that should be part of any mentalist or magicians arsenal.

In Envelopolgoy Part 1, Scott provides clear photographic manufacturing instructions which will enable you with nothing more than some envelopes, a glue stick, and a pair of scissors, to manufacture four utility devices, which will spark your imagination.

Also included are full descriptions...

29 effects with Tarot cards.

Here is what Richard Webster had to say about it:

You know how very successful those tricks are in which seemingly the spectator "does it all himself." He gets a kick out of it, his friends love it because they hope he will mess it up, and you get all the credit for having a fun show. Here's an ebook full of mental tricks and stunts that the audience does. All you have to do is give them the first push or so. Let 'em do it!

Effects taught:

• The Floating Table
• Burning Four of Five Envelopes
• Rabdomancy
• A Daylight Darkroom Seance
• A Few Words About the Cordless Microphone
• Poker Chip Prediction
• An Uncanny Divination
• The Proper Balance ...

Particularly noteworthy is Marvoyan's headline prediction which is fully explained in this ebook.

This ebook does not teach the actual Dream Prediction effect but it is filled with bonus routines and ideas for those that own Paul's original Dream Prediction routine. If you perform any type of confabulation routine then you will certainly get ideas from this ebook, but not the working or method used for Dream Prediction.

1st edition 2010, 30 pages.

"When Paul asked me to contribute to volume 2 I jumped at the chance .So here we are with another volume chock full of advice, tips, scripts, routines and tricks to entertain children and families with. Use them well." - Bill Abbott

This completes the two volume set for performers who want to add some mentalism in to their show. Anybody...

The magician shows a gift box, and talks about how he bought this gift for his four-year-old niece for her upcoming birthday. He then talks about 'coincidences' and wants to try an experiment. Audience members are asked to call out any color, any amount of money, a ladies name and a 'gift' is selected. The selections are written on a...

"You only have to look at the list of contributors to know this book is special. I'm thrilled to find that they all love this effect as much as I do. I don't think a book paying so much attention to a single effect has ever been published before." - Richard Webster

Mental Epic is one the most powerful effects in the mentalist's repertoire. Compiled and edited by Paul Romhany, Mental Epic Compendium, is packed with over fifty-four routines and ideas for this classic effect. Hen Fetsch invented the board in 1954, and over the past five decades it has undergone many different variations, however most...

Two different effects in one!

One of the most novel effects you will see. Something totally unique...combined with a new principle in mentalism that will delight even seasoned pros. This is release five in Devin Knight's Psychic Sight Series.

MIRRORED THOUGHT

The first effect is one that Devin has used to fool well informed mentalists in the past. Two spectators are brought on stage. Neither is a stooge nor has there been any pre-show work.

The first spectator freely selects a word from the stack of word cards. There is no force of any kind and the mentalist really does not know...

[Important notice: these lecture notes contain only abridged directions for the effects. Just the basic method is revealed. The regular PDFs contain more detail and sometimes charts you can print out. Consider these lecture notes as an introduction to the effects. You may wish to buy the full PDF after reading these notes, but at least you will know how the effects work.]

The lecture notes from Devin's lecture at the 2011 Mindvention. Many of these were sold separately as PDFs that would cost you threes the cost of these notes. A real bargain.

• Blindsight 2 - Give anyone psychic powers instantly
• Tarot Fold Told - A version of Four Told using Tarot Cards
• Double Coincidence - A thought of word is found circled in a dictionary
• Word Sight - Reveal two words just thought of and never written down
• No Touch ACAAN - A version of ACAAN where you never touch to deck

1st edition 2011, 47 pages....

A box is given to anyone you want (the chief of police, the major, a TV producer, etc.) This box is sealed and it will be opened some days later. The box will never be touched again by you or anybody else involved in the stunt.

The day that the prediction will be opened, lets say you are performing at the radio while there are live people waiting to see the box opened, you ask the radio audience to call in to the radio station, they will be taking part in a mind experiment in which they will have to make some decisions that will create at the end a random event, which when the box is opened...

Devin Knight has created another hit with Four Told 2 the modern symbol edition. This is mind reading at its best, and allows you to read four minds at once. This new improved version is better and has a streamlined method that requires NO secret adding of numbers.

It does away with the pad and uses just a few index cards, which are handed to the participants as predictions. It does away with old fashion ESP symbols and takes the effect into the 21st century by using modern up to date symbols. Two different presentations for both stage and close-up are included in this new release.

This is a weird book that mixes black magic, superstitions, charms, divination, signs, omens, hypnosis ... and conjuring. You can find next to each other things like "how to make persons at a distance think of you" and "how to perform the Davenport Brothers' Spirit Mysteries". Probably it is most useful for finding interesting story lines.

1st digital edition 2012, 63 pages.

On the table are 6 cards and a set of cards in a card box. The spectator calls a number from one to six. The magician counts to the associated card and points with the finger to the card. Let's say the spectator chooses the number five and chooses with that the 4 of diamonds. No force required, the spectator has a FREE choice (like the effect name).

Now you open the card box (which was lying on the table) and all cards are blank (or white whatever you want to call them) except for one, the card the spectator chose. The blank cards can be properly investigated by the spectator.

The benefits...

"Jose has created something wonderful here; using a mixture of subtleties to achieve a clean, realiable piece of mentalism that your audience will remember for a long time!" - Peter Turner

"Jose has melded a neo-classic and classic method and has created a routine which opens the door to manipulating people's memory about what actually happened (and when). This is a great example of a logical disconnect and a subtle presentation that maximizes the effect of both principles. A worker!" - Sean Waters

"So simple and devious! Jose has taken two common concepts, and blended them into an extremely baffling...

"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...
