"I'm an enormous fan of the philosophical perspectives flowing through this book, but make no mistake, these pages also document many powerful, clever, commercial magic effects. Among my favorites are 'Leaving Decks', 'Martika', and the extremely intimate 'Ode to Charlie.'" - Jay Sankey

"Jeff Stone's 793.8 asks us to discover where the magic is in our methods, effects, presentations, and in our lives. Perhaps we do not care or think we know, but Jeff lightly and joyfully keeps at us with his tricks and reflections until we are moved to wonder more broadly and deeply about our experience of magic....

The Cups and Balls done a little differently than most. This is an unusual, direct and very magical cups and balls routine. A white ball, a blue ball, and a red ball magically gather under one cup in different ways.

The Hypno-Dream Program

For over fifty-eight years Charles Gauci has applied the principles contained in this program to help him achieve tremendous world wide success both as a hypnotist and a mentalist. He explains:

• Why Positive Thinking fails 95% of the time when applied.
• The Law of Reversed Effort. Why the harder we try the less we succeed.
• Why, when the Will Power and the Belief System are in conflict the Belief System always wins.

Possibly the world's funniest card trick!

A spectator is asked to assist on stage with a card trick. Both he and the magician wear a paper bag blindfold over their heads as a card is attempted to be selected. Eventually a large knife is introduced into the routine that the magician intends to stab through the selected card when the spectator is instructed to toss the entire jumbo deck into the air. Everything goes wrong and the audience is in hysterics. Eventually the magician identifies the card successfully. An incredibly commercial, funny and entertaining routine for any serious professional. ...

Based on the old 'Fred' card trick, Wolfgang launched his magician fooling version 'Fred Outdone' in 1990, causing a sensation amongst magicians and adding a unique twist in that the whole deck could be shown as a red back deck, except for the Fred card. In 2017 Wolfgang took the trick to new heights, hence the new 'Fred Outdone Squared' title.

It's as simple as any spectator naming any card, e.g. seven of hearts. The entire deck is shown to be red backs with different names on the back of each card. Even another seven can be shown to have a red back and different name. When the seven of...

You show the old gag where with two folding actions a dollar bill is turned on its head. You now have the spectator sign the bill and repeat the folding actions. However, now only the front of the bill is upside down, the back is not upside down. In other words, only one side of the bill turned. How is that possible? You give the dollar bill as souvenir to the spectator who can keep this impossible bill for the rest of his life in his wallet.

Remember that this is not some fake misprinted bill. Ralf will teach you how to prepare a real genuine dollar bill for this effect. This also works...

A false cut that uses the action of burning a card as misdirection. Particularly useful for cheating at BlackJack.

Chuck Smith was recorded doing this cut. (A letter from Chuck Smith to Brick Tilley is reproduced in the PDF.) He used it to beat players during the years of WWII. The sequence of actions is the following. You first openly cut the cards and complete the cut. Then you take the top card, turn it face up and place it as the bottom card. During the action of burning the top card you undo the cut. The demo video will prove how honest and fair this looks.

You will receive a PDF...

This ebook is for all who would like to combine magic and electronics but have little experience with electronics and have no idea what the possibilities are. The author explains a range of projects that will give you an overview of some of the magic effects achievable with electronics.

The first project has nothing to do with electronics but it will teach you how to write software, an app for your mobile phone. It is a very simple app, and it will not make you a programmer, but it allows you to get your feet wet and get a glimpse at the possibilities of apps.

You will then be introduced...

Destiny 2.0 is an easier and more spectacular version of its predecessor. Now, people with no big experience in magic will be able to astonish their audience with an even more entertaining effect. Besides, if you are just an amateur and have no abilities in magic, you will find enclosed a document that contains instructions to build yourself the "Destiny Deck", a way to perform with no skills at all!

You will also find a copy of Destiny Evolution 2; a trick that merges the original Destiny effect with an imaginary poker hand. Obviously everything will be done with a single deck of cards coupled...

For the first time ever, in this 30 minute video, Scott explains and demonstrates how to manufacture the cheap and easy to use, real time impression pad he has been using for years. Once you have the materials together (they are cheap and widely available) and have watched this video, you will be able to produce one of these pads in about ten to fifteen minutes.

If you can use a pair of scissors and tape, you can make "The DIY I-Pad"

No special...

[Please note that this is a four part course. If your intention is to become a stage hypnotist we strongly discourage you from only getting one or two parts. You will not get the full breadth and depth of information.]

This third part, a download DVD, shows an entire hypnotism show from begin to end. It is an outdoor fair show that starts quite slow - almost boring. There is lots of distracting noise. Still Mark Lewis spins his hypnotic web and leads the audience to a hypnotic experience many have never seen before.

This video should be watched for entertainment only since there is no instruction of any kind depicted on it. The purpose of this recording is to amplify the information on the Audio recording and on Part 2. Another very important purpose, however, is for the viewer to understand the sequence...

This is the final issue of THE MINOTAUR, the fourth issue of volume 8. It is one of the best magic DVDs I have seen and I am not alone in this opinion:

"The material is so much fun and so workable, not to mention the hysterical 'theme' of the DVD. I seriously think this is one of the best dvds of the year." - Cameron Francis

This DVD is not only filled with great effects, it also has a funny story line worth watching. The effects included are:

• Fairest of Them All: A pick a card effect where two cards are shown to indicate a chosen card by suit and value. Regardless of how “fair” the magician makes...

‎"A captivating study on deceptive theories scarcely analysed. A compelling read for those in the allied arts and the curious alike." - Daniel Madison

Dee Christopher exposes the trickery, deception and fraud undertaken by the world's leading psychics, psychokinetics and mediums. Unlike other studies of this nature in the parapsychological world, the author's background lies in the art of conjuring, sleight of hand and mentalism. You will learn how to replicate these demonstrations.

Christopher divulges the secrets held close by these figures who have conned the world into believing their skills...

These effects on this double-download-DVD are for serious finger-flingers. Intimately detailed instruction is unsurpassed. Every effect on this DVD features some original moves and thinking, addressing classic effects:

Cups and Balls - what would happen if they took on a life of their own? Steve's cup routine includes some new presentational ideas and strategies as well as some new wrinkles he is sure you will use. If you are a cup freak, this is for you!

Cards and Coins - a magician fooler. This routine accomplishes the same effect - with a backfire, using all new moves. Steve wanted...

Originated by Martin Lewis, retailed for many years, and manufactured in a larger than jumbo size, by Ken Brooke, and enhanced by Wolfgang Riebe.

An incredible giant 4 card routine that totally bamboozles your audience. Three blank cards and an ace are shown and the audience is instructed to follow the Ace. They always get it wrong. An unexpected surprise finish occurs when there is only one blank card and three aces!

An incredible stage routine for any serious professional.

The video instructions include:

• Full explanation
• Custom make your own giants cards for under $15
• 30 years of refinement explained ...

Slydini Encores is a great book with many photos, but despite the genuine efforts by the author and editor to capture Slydini's magic and teach it, it is tough to learn the details and the exact timing from the book. This is particularly true for students who have not experienced Slydini live. Dennis Barlotta, aka D. Angelo Ferri, who studied under Slydini for several years, provides in this video lecture the missing details and demonstrations so that you can actually learn and perform these miracles.

Dennis demonstrates and discusses almost everything from the book, Prediction in Red, Alladin Purse,...

"Just watched Q&A Evolution again. Man, is it packed with subtleties and insights from someone who has been doing Q&A for 20 years. Also made up a set of the Evolution cards and have been practicing the moves. It doesn't take long at all to get the moves down smoothly. Everything takes place in your hands, right in front of the audience. And in the case of a one-on-one reading, literally right under their noses. The combination of the Q&A Evolution System cards and the readings framework Scott teaches allows you to do unique, one-on-one readings for one person, or many. The more I work with...

A hands-off card prediction at any number.

"No other method can achieve what your method achieves." - Dan Harlan

"To be honest, I would have more than one method to achieve the same effect, but - and this is a big BUT - Ali doesn't use any of them! So, it is indeed very clean and very fooling." - Jan Forster

The deck of cards is in the spectator's hands. At no point do you touch the cards. You ask the spectator to think of any number between...

THE MINOTAUR ended with volume 8 and no fourth issue. After several years Marv Leventhal and Dan Harlan have decided to release issue 4 of volume 8 as a two disc DVD set.
