Two bizarre playing card routines.

In the Devil's Game you tell the story of a guy named Billy who finds himself in hell, he simply can't believe it. Billy just doesn't belong in hell, he lived his life honestly, he was loyal, he was a good guy, did the right things, played by the rules. What the hell is he doing in hell?! So he asks one of the Devil's minions to please take him to the devil, that he urgently needs to speak to him to figure this thing out. The minion takes him to the devil's lavish chambers, and the devil, smoking a cigar, surrounded by beautiful women, quietly hears him...

A series of effects to attempt to make spiritual contact with an unfortunate little girl.

After releasing his controversial Memories of Emily séance a few years ago, Mark Piazza has always thought about re-writing it and 'toning it down' somewhat as it was too graphic for some.

While attempting to do so, Mark ended up creating a whole different Emily séance!

Simply titled, Emily v2 (version 2), it is another fictional séance about an abducted little girl.

Once again, Mark has put together a series of different effects tied together in a different way so that 90% of the script...

Seance for the Undead: a Duet of Unusual Magicks features two new routines from the slightly disturbed mind of Paul Voodini. Both routines combine elements of the psychological and the esoteric with more traditional (but very simple) conjuring techniques. This is bizarre magic that is designed to entertain, enthrall and, yes, scare a parlour audience!

The first routine is entitled Raising the Dead. This is a seance-based routine that combines both the psychological elements that Paul Voodini is famous for along with some small pieces of illusion.

The vampire has long been a source of fascination...

Effects:

[Note that this method is not the method Richard Osterlind uses for his trademark penny bend effect.]

Imagine being able to bend a borrowed and signed spectator's penny, in their own hand in a visual manner. Your audience sees the penny bending in their hand!

You'll learn a secret technique to get a penny to bend as well as make it bend visually for the spectator. This method was inspired by James T. Cheung and Mentalism Plus. (Another description of the same method can be found in Steve Pellegrino's The Underground Penny Bend PDF.)

Does not use:

• pre-bent coins
• any kind of bending gimmicks which need to be palmed or introduced and ditched secretly

A treasure trove for bizarrists and mentalists alike. You will find weird fakir stunts juxtaposed with western style magic effects.

The Haunting of Paul Voodini is a compilation of routines and set pieces, many of them taken directly from the “shut eye” paranormal community. These routines would sit well in any bizarre, mentalism, or séance theatre presentation and should be regarded as building blocks and foundations around which evenings of wonder and mystery may be built.

As with most of Voodini’s work, the vast majority of this work is ungimmicked and relies instead upon the correct creation of atmosphere, the subtle use of hypnotic wording, and the ability of the performer to engage the guests’ imaginations....

The first case in Baltimore for many...

The Ultimate Key Bending Routine.

In the early 1970’s, at the "dawning of the Age of Aquarius," a young Israeli named Uri Geller attracted worldwide attention with his "psychic" abilities. While he demonstrated several paranormal skills, it was his "psychokinetic" ability to bend silverware, borrowed keys, and nails that set him apart from other "New Age" psychics. In the years that followed many mentalists and magicians added "metal bending" routines to their repertoires, and many sleights and gimmicks have been devised to facilitate the effect.

You may have noticed that most of the...
