B'tween
David Devlin
David Devlin has floored everyone he has shown this incredible effect. Even members of his family were nailed. This is an amazing piece of mental magic. Based on an array of different effects and principles, this is certain to go into your working repertoire. It is self-working and can even be performed impromptu (at least the majority of the effect can be performed impromptu)!
The effect is this: A deck is shuffled, and two predictions are made on the backs of two business cards. One is a number and the other is the name of a playing card. Two spectators deal cards in turn until they each...
Sight Unseen Revelations
Devin Knight
From the lost files of Jason Michaels comes one of the most devious and baffling psychic card routines every invented!
It is a four-phase routine in which you locate selected cards SIGHT UNSEEN. It was one of the most talked about feats of Jason Michaels and even fooled the skeptics. This appears in print for the first time.
Jason never liked using blindfolds except for blindfolded drives and even then he put newspaper over the windshield. The reason for this is that no matter how clever or deceptive a blindfold is, there are always people who still think somehow you can see through it....

Spook Crooks!
Julien J. Proskauer
Spook Crooks! is Julien Proskauer's searing expose of the world of phony prophets, fake mediums, and other con artists who fleeced innocent victims of their cash, dignity and in some cases their lives.
Proskauer, a friend of Houdini's, took it upon himself to nearly single-handedly rid the radio airwaves of fortune tellers and psychic swindlers in the early 1930s, much to the chagrin of honest mentalists who were caught in the crossfire.
A slick billet switch, the gypsy money switch, and many other secrets are revealed in crystal clear text and illustrations.
Robert A. Nelson, owner of mentalism's most esteemed...

Fifty Fifty
Gerard Zitta
Effect:
Somebody hides a coin in one of their hands, and the mentalist has to guess or predict which one: Left or Right?
This method uses classic techniques and is probably the simplest, the most direct, the safest, and probably the boldest one! It can be done separately, or embedded with other methods, or used as an out. Its major advantage is that it will not be perceived as a logic puzzle, and will really leave an impression of free choice. It will kill all previous solutions of potential methods (logic, electronic, gimmicked, etc.) that Cartesian spectators might suspect.

Transaction
Gerard Zitta
Here is another ploy to the Monty Hall problem, one of the most unexplored plots in magic and mentalism.
In this version, the mentalist plays the role of the candidate, and the participant plays the role of the host. As many people nowadays know the Monty Hall paradox or can search for it on the net, the game is made slightly more complex, in order to avoid any probabilities: The player can also play the role of a corrupt presenter if they wish. He can secretly steal the prize behind the third door, making it impossible for you to win the Ferrari! All this will allow you to mix mentalism...

Psych Aerious
Unknown Mentalist
The owners of this ebook can purchase Unusual Clue for half price.
This is a killer close up mentalism routine. Clean, simple and direct. A participant is asked to mentally think of a word from the Psych Aerious Card. Not only does the performer reveal the final word but also seems to know what all the participant passed through from the beginning of the thought to the ending of the thought process.
A mysterious concept of Psych Aerious is introduced and explained which makes the routine more baffling and the impact more powerful. A small card which can easily fit in a wallet is used as an interesting...
The Salem Seer
George C. Bartlett
Reminiscences of Charles H. Foster who some consider the most gifted and remarkable spiritual medium since Emanuel Swedenborg. This account gives facts and descriptions of many seances held in different parts of the world.
This is a fascinating account of Charles H. Foster's story - a medium who exhibited mostly skin writing (dermography) and pellet reading. When Foster visited England in 1861 materialization phenomena were added to his performances.
Foster enjoyed drinking alcohol and smoking cigars in barrooms with his companions as much as he did transmitting messages from the dead....

The Unfolding
Paul M. Carnazzo
Effect:
Three photographs are displayed; each is of a different statue of Marcus Aurelius. (The photographs can be any 3, so presentational possibilities are endless) It is explained that Marcus Aurelius was a Roman Emperor, and is also considered one of the most important Stoic philosophers. One of his most famous quotes is displayed:
"Everything is unfolding as it must, and if you observe carefully, you will find this to be so."
The mentalist explains that this philosophy will be put to the test. A man and a woman are asked to help. The woman is asked to choose a photo...any one...a...
Farmacology
Paul M. Carnazzo
Three game cards from the (fictitious) board game, "Farmtown" are displayed. Each card is printed with four different items. One has four animals printed on it, one has four colors, and the last has four locations.
The performer explains that the game is a guessing game of sorts, in which one player tries to guess the selection of their opponent. The performer explains that due to his mind reading abilities, he's always had an unfair advantage!
The participant is asked to think of one item on each of the cards. With no questions, fishing, cueing, pumping, guessing, etc., the performer...
A Thought Covertly Conveyed
Abhinav Bothra
A hybrid of a card trick and the plot spectator as mind reader dressed in the clothes of hypnosis.
Spectator 1 selects a card and places it back in the deck which is then put into the box. Spectator 2 is asked to close his/her eyes and is put through a simple process at the end of which he/she names the card.
Honest Notes:
The card is a force card (any card among the 52 will do) and it is conveyed through some physical factors supported by the script.
In here you'll find my script in English, which can easily be adapted to any language and is not bound by any particular word/s. And...

Super-Psychic Mental Effects
Howard P. Albright
From the introduction:
There is a universal demand for good, practical effects in Mental Magic, not only from professional Mentalists, whose very livelihood depends upon the exhibition of Super-Normal Phenomena, but from that vast army of amateurs, who find this type of presentation most effective in small, social gatherings. Because of the very intimate nature of mental problems, they are particularly well suited for impromptu occasions. Under such circumstances, they appear to be most convincingly genuine, and accompanied by a little dramatic by-play, they create a profound impression upon...

Credit Card Divination
Devin Knight
I am very pleased with this release; although, I was reluctant to release it at first. This has been one of my prized secrets for the last few years. As far as I know, this effect is original with me. The method is new. I have never put this in print before or taught it in lectures. The secret is revealed here for the first time.
The effect is straight to the point and is 100% impromptu. Unlike some mental effects, there is nothing confusing to the spectator. It is easily understood by spectators of any intelligence or age. It is perfect for those times you need to do something and don't have...
