Bizarre in Mentalism & Spiritism: page 2

Cliff is a new use for an old gimmick. In that sense it is a groundbreaking new concept in the art of PK magic. The gimmick, virtually invisible to the naked eye, can be with you at all times, and is applicable to a nearly limitless amount of objects. You can easily perform Cliff in the midst of a large crowd, as there are no threads, blowing, or vibrations involved in the effect. Your body never comes in contact with the object. You can even hand out the item for examination.

Three magic effects (Memories/Poe theme, Mayhem/Jack the Ripper theme, Mephistopheles/Satan theme) with a bizarre premise.

Memories: Mark presents Nevermore (in two versions) where Edgar Allan Poe fondly yet sadly remembers his inspiration for his classic poem, The Raven. (It's not who you think.)

Mayhem: Mark's From Hell routine (originally created for his Shuddershadow Mansion ebook) is amped up for the stage where chilling accounts of the Ripper's murders are added, bringing more tension to the routine through the power of verbal imagery.

Mephistopheles: We take a closer look at Santa's Book of Toys...

Abigail was an evil witch, the high priestess of an evil coven. On the 7th day of July, 1777 the people of her small community convicted her of witchcraft, and had her put to death.

One of the very few magic acts designed for a woman, but this one is a honey. Based on the Charles Adams cartoons, the character of Vampira is indicated by the sketch. The magic she does is quite simple and mostly standard, but the presentation is wild and horrendous, and what you'd expect from a Vampire. Once the material is assimilated, the tricks could be changed to suit the individual. All patter and presentation is given, plus the details of the wonderful costume and make up, also music, lighting, etc. With a little work, the idea can be transferred to a male character. Great for Halloween,...

Imagine, you show your hands empty front and back. You give a key on a key ring to the audience for examination. You take the key ring back and gently stroke the key. Suddenly the key begins to move on its ring. It jerks and bobs as if manipulated by invisible fingers. It rises in an eerie fashion until it’s extending horizontally from the ring. Then with a mere snap of your fingers the animation ceases. You give the key out for examination once more and show your hands to be unequivocally empty.

This ebook comes with clear and descriptive photos. Points To Remember:

• Starts clean and...

Just in time for your Halloween shows. While the rest of the group stands in a circle reading in unison the ritual instructions printed on what appears to be an aged piece of parchment paper, the person who'll be receiving the benefits of the ritual sits at a small table in the center of the circle with a piece of paper, matches, pen, candle, and plate. As that person follows the instructions being read by the group, the ritual unfolds - working itself. The only suggestion is to collect the ritual instruction sheets at the end of the ceremony to keep the mystery in the experience - preventing...

So what is The Accursed Letter? I thought you'd never ask ...

It's a believable, chilling, well written letter, penned a long time ago by Rollo the Rollicking, carnival clown, that when read, will curse your friends!
