Propless in Mentalism & Spiritism

This is a deception based on a verbal ruse which may not work all the time.

Have you ever wanted to create the illusion of being able to hypnotize someone to lose the ability to write? Well, this method does exactly that, and it is super simple. Even if your spectator is a Harvard PhD in English, she will not be able to write one word on the paper. She won't even be able to put the pencil on the paper - her brain will simply refuse to process information - welcome, to One Word. This method has nothing to do with the paper, nothing to do with the pencil or pen, and everything to do with your...

Past Life Prediction is a very unusual effect. Whether you or your audiences believe in the concept of past life or not, you can either perform this as a serious effect or a fun routine. This is totally propless. This is interesting. This is fun. And this is very impressive. Your participant will be left with an unforgettable experience.

You meet an utter stranger and directly tell him about your intuition by giving a few concrete bits of information about his past life. And you will then go on to present him solid proof of that past life information which will totally convince him. He...

Ever wanted to read minds of others in a hassle-free way? There have been hundreds of excellent methods in existence for extracting thoughts from people's minds. Mentalists have been "nailing" the thoughts of others, "tearing" into others' brains, having a "peek" into peoples' minds for a long time now. Imagine what it would be like if there's no need to resort to such methods. Imagine what it would be like if you are looking for the information just where you need to look? Here's something revolutionary for you.

Imagine requesting a spectator to take part in a demonstration on Thought Projection....

This is an impromptu and propless mentalism routine which is a lot of fun to do. It works best in a one-on-one situation where you are performing to a new acquaintance whom you have met for the very first time.

With this routine you prove to the participant that her mobile number and her birth year (both of which you have no way of knowing since you met the participant for the very first time just then) are somehow associated in a mysterious way. The participant will be utterly amazed with this unexpected revelation.

There are multiple payoffs in this routine. A new acquaintance gets...

The simplicity of the principle is, at the same time, its true power and also its true disguise. This is a really cool method to have in your arsenal and can be performed impromptu anytime, anywhere to anyone. No Progressive Anagrams. No Branching Anagrams. No Math. No Dual Reality. No Reframes. No Verbal Jugglery. No Stooges....

"I think your Propless Bank Night is brilliant !!" - Marc Salem

"The idea of the anagram is very good. This concept can also be used with classic bank night routines. Well done and stay safe." - Luca Volpe

A unique combination of classic...

This is a propless and surefire star sign divination method suitable for performing over a voice phone call. It uses a novel and clever method called SignZEN to divine the star sign of a participant on the other end of a call, maybe thousands of miles away. This refreshing principle is not known to have been used in this manner before. Of course, this routine can be performed in face-to-face situations also with appropriate adjustments. You can even perform this over a text chat or on a video call.

It is clarified upfront that this method is totally different from Signature, Propless Sign Divination, Zodiac Gods, Star Signature, Elemental 1 & 2, and Birthday Calendar by the...

The performer asks a participant to play an imaginary game over a voice phone call. The participant may be thousands of miles away at the other end of the call. The participant makes several free choices but all in her mind alone, she does not say anything out loud. But the final result is already predicted by the performer in a very innovative manner. The climax can be very visual if you choose that option in performance. The participant is stunned with the outcome. The participant even gets to keep a memorable 'souvenir' after the routine.

This can be performed over a video call or even...

"This is virtual magic, mentalism and theory at its very best. You are a real deep thinker" - Marc Salem

As the name suggests, Thought Trajectory is an effect which is like a chain of thoughts in the mind of the participant. The mind reader is not aware of the starting point, nor the process, nor the end result, apparently. Everything happens...

ReDD is a remote drawing duplication effect which can be performed over a voice phone call, video call, virtual show and also, of course, in face to face performing situations. ReDD also qualifies as a propless effect as there are no props used and both the performer and the participant are only 'interacting' with each other, either over a call or face to face. A piece of paper which may be used to jot down a choice is just incidental and is not necessary.

The mind reader poses several fun questions to a participant and also describes several activities. The participant mentally and silently...

The mind reader begins by saying "Let's play an interesting game. Imagine you are a 'psychopath' on the run and I am a 'psychic detective'. We will use 4 continents and 4 directions...." And ends the effect by absolutely stunning the participant with an impossible-looking divination.

At its core, this is a quick, high-impact propless piece that you can deploy in almost any situation like on a voice call, in a virtual show, face to face close up, parlour, street etc. The performer divines the exact personality trait of a psychopath. The entire routine can be performed in about a minute. ...

"Brilliant" - Marc Salem

"I love the style of thinking in using your brain to the extra leg work to create something fun and engaging for your spectators!" - Ben Cardal

The spectator plays a "Charades" like game with the mentalist. And in every round of the game, the mentalist always gets it right. Lastly, the mentalist performs a mind-reading effect that identifies objects that the spectator is thinking of.

• Can be performed via video call
• Can be propless
• Can include a drawing duplication effect
• Does not use truth-teller/liar plot
• Can use different objects

Mpeep is short for Mind Peep. It is also an acronym for all the routine names in this manuscript. Based on an innovative combination of classic methods, this novel principle enables you to quickly and deceptively plant a word and then divine it from a participant's mind. 5 routines and a bonus routine are explained. In fact, based on the method, you can create several routines yourself to suit your performance situation or customize for a particular audience or participant.

Teletrack is a quick propless effect where the performer impossibly tracks the thought of a participant telepathically. Beginning from the 'fate' of the participant and ending with the 'destiny' of the participant, the performer is able to identify the final silent thought.

Nothing is said or written down by the participant. You can perform this completely propless over a voice phone call, in a virtual show, or face to face in close-up, parlor, street venues, or even over a text chat. The method is easy and self-working but creates wonder for the participant. There are no sleights, not...

Force Multiplier is a concept where multiple forces are applied to a routine or effect so that the overall impact gets exponentially bigger. So the result is far bigger than just the sum of individual parts. In a way, 2+2 does not remain 4 but becomes, say 20.

And this concept of Force Multiplier is used to create 3 effects that are propless, instant and impactful, at the same time. And you do not need anything at all to perform these effects. Just carry the simple and easy method in your head and you are set to perform these anytime, anywhere to anyone to stun and amaze. You can perform...

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...

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...

You can almost proplessly divine the exact date of birth of an utter stranger in under a minute. This routine works best in a one-on-one situation where the performer has met the participant for the very first time. And you can also, if you want, instantly repeat it for different people in the same group of audience. This impromptu routine is a lot of fun to do.

You do not need to have MPAC to learn and perform this one.

With this routine you prove to the participant that based on a few general characteristics related to her you are able to divine her exact birthday. This is the opposite...

You need not have Remote Propless Prediction to learn and use the routines in this manuscript. But by learning both, you will have a far wider range of routines in this category.

The performer asks a participant to play an imaginary game over a voice phone call. The participant may be thousands of miles away at the other end of the call. The participant makes several free choices but all in her mind alone, she does not say anything out loud. But the final result is already predicted by the performer in a very innovative manner.

The climax can be very visual if you choose that option in performance. The participant...

Seeing Signs is Fraser's ground breaking solution to the prop-less star sign divination plot, as featured in Peter Turner's PDF course vol. 9: Zodiac Divinations.

Yes, Fraser has done it again. He's applied his ingenious thought process and approach to prop-less mentalism to create one of the most elegant, beautifully streamlined versions of the star sign divination plot - to date.

NO anagrams. NO focusing on specific letters. NO jumping through letters of the alphabet. NO re-frame. NO eye accessing cues. NO maths. NO cards.

This is a classic of mentalism updated for prop-less use and is fully mechanical...

Not one or two...rather three new approaches for propless drawing revelations from the mind of Silas Linden.

In Drawing you will get 3 methods to being able to, in a propless and conversational way, reveal anyone's thought of drawing.

1. Clouds: Your participant will visualize his drawing, and you can get it.

2. Sunshine: Just with a simple, natural action, you will secretly know the participant's thought.

3. Reciprocity: A real connection between you and your participant will allow fantastic moments of mystery.

The power of words, imagination and visualization in real manners....

Silas offers his new approach to propless "think a card".

Think (Silas first release) was a new, direct and prop-less method for being able to divine any playing card thought of and now with Think 2.0 he offers a new approach that you can even combine in a two-phase routine to read minds twice.

• 100% propless
• 100% reliable
• No difficult or mathematical boring and long procedures
• No PA/BA
• No language restriction
• Impromptu miracle
• No dual reality
• Nothing written

Silas Linden's Epoch is a new method and fun system to create mindreading anytime, anywhere, 100% propless. You and your participant start to create a mind-to-mind connection, and after some moments of casual conversation, you can know his zodiac sign, his thought of name, playing card (and much more) creating a fantastic moment for him and for the audience.

• Not language dependent
• No gimmicks
• Flexible system
• Nothing written down
• No reading required
• No strings
• Practical, simple and very fun

1st edition 2019, 6 pages.

CAUTION: This is so powerful that you could start your own cult. So you must perform this effect with great wisdom, absolute ethics, high maturity and complete responsibility. The author is not liable for any contingent outcomes of your performances, you yourself are solely responsible for it.

SCENARIO : The performer and participant are on both ends of a voice call separated by maybe thousands of miles. The participant is holding an imaginary deck of playing cards and follows instructions of the performer. The objective of the participant is to know the answer to a question she has, related...

"I really like how you made a psychological force more surefire. It is really an interesting concept. Well done." - Luca Volpe

"At it's core this is a VERY direct way to verbally make a spectator think of a specific number. It's a useful and clever idea to know and an important contribution to the area of propless mentalism." - Marc Paul

The effect from the participant's view: The performer sends some...

The methods and presentation are new and different from those given in Propless ACAAN (Vol 1). Again, this is absolutely propless ACAAN. No deck. No props at all. And this is an almost self-working propless ACAAN. Just you the performer and the participant on a voice call. That's it.

The effect from the participant's view: The performer and participant send some thoughts back and forth silently between them about a number and a playing card. The participant then imagines a deck of playing cards, shuffles the deck a couple of times and hands it over the phone to the performer (its an imaginary...

An elegant propless force with a multitude of applications. Force X is a powerful and flexible tool which can be used in multiple ways. This force can be used for both propless effects as well as for face to face performance routines.

The participant takes 2 decks. One red backed and other blue backed. Then discards approx half the cards in each deck, and chooses a card from one of the half decks and keeps it in the other half deck. Finally hands over the half deck with the different colored back selection in it, to the performer. And you miraculously know her selection in that half deck.

Wait a minute. Here are the other conditions of this effect.

1. Both the performer and participant are on both sides of a voice call.
2. Both the decks in play are completely imaginary decks.
3. The participant does all this silently and...

At its core, this is a quick, high-impact propless piece that you can deploy in almost any situation like on a voice call, in a virtual show, face-to-face close up, parlor, street, etc. The performer divines a word being thought of by a participant.

But the true power is in its mind-boggling range of possibilities. You can literally plant about 48000 different possible words in a participant's mind and seemingly read their mind to exactly divine that word. The combination of principles is so flexible that you can again literally apply it to any theme of presentation you may want. If you...

The effect as perceived by the participant: The participant freely chooses a vaccine mentally from among several options. The participant also decides on a country that will get the vaccine doses first from among a dozen competing countries. The mind reader plucks out the country from the participant's mind effortlessly. This can be repeated several times with different outcomes.

At its core, this is a quick, high-impact propless piece that you can deploy in almost any situation like on a voice call, video call, in a virtual show, face to face close up, parlour, street etc. The performer...

There are 3 routines explained. Your participant needs to have a mobile phone which can search Google. Or you can lend your phone...

A collection of effects that deal directly with thoughts. Only three of them need anything tangible, and only one requires writing; the rest can be performed naked. Combat with your thoughts, divine birthdays, scam bar mates, use two different cold reading presentations, make your spectator see words they never saw, verbally force cards in seconds, psychologically force thoughts, bend the wills of an audience; let your spectator read your mind, another spectators mind, or even speak life into being.

So far Vol 1. Psychological Card Forces was the most successful eBook of the series. Based on that Peter Turner decided to dedicate one more volume to psychological forces. In this volume Peter teaches you how to force anything. Volume 7 covers how to force places, numbers, countries, names, even imaginary dice throw outcomes and many more.

In this volume, there are many contributions. You will learn routines from Morgan Stebler, Pablo Amira, Sean Waters, Art Vanderlay and Rus Andrews. Peter Turner gives additional commentary for all the routines.

This eBook contains the following:

• Piggybacking Principle
• Forcing Places/Countries
• The Pause and...

The master of Propless Mentalism, Peter Turner now offers a full series in this topic.

The definition of Propless Mentalism is, at best, arguable (this is discussed in length inside this volume). The definition that Peter has stuck closely to is: the participant never writes anything down, and the only time the mentalist writes anything is to reveal information.

Peter has tried to make the material as sure-fire as possible (not chancy or bold), whilst keeping the process as small as possible - no long-winded, drawn-out presentations. If the presentation isn't as quick as (if not faster...
