Dee Christopher is known for his haunted magic and mentalism; in this ebook he reveals his tricks of the trade...
This is the ultimate Halloween publication to put you above the competition and ensure your act is suitably chilling and mystical. Featuring classic and hard to find Dee Christopher routines, alongside many new presentations and work on haunted effects.
- You will learn how to make spirit writing burn itself into a pocket notebook - An incredibly spooky effect with an instant reset, making it a perfect walk around performance piece.
- The classic haunted key effect is brought to new heights as the key even turns itself over in the spectator's hand.
- A thought of picture mysteriously becomes mutilated.
- You will learn a confabulation style routine based around horror movies, where the participant is the one starring in the final kill scene.
- You will learn how to transmit information to a friend or accomplice in complete silence, and even in the dark.
- You will also learn an incredible piece of organic magic, in which you tell a story about how you got a scar, before healing yourself in front of everyone with no cover. This is one of my most devious creations and one of my most powerful effects.
- Plus more! (Full contents below)
In this ebook, you will have everything you need to put together a Halloween themed show, very quickly, with minimal effort. Read through the thoughts in this book and everything will become clear, you'll be ready to spook and astound everyone you meet, be it at gigs, parties or after dinner performances.
While some of the work in this ebook is quite profound, none of it will be seen as offensive or intrusive to any member of your audience. (Though I don't really recommend the themes for kids performances.)
