Review: I was surprised by how much I like this. I bought it on a whim in a blind fit of C.U.P.S. and I really like it.


It's a haunted deck that can happen on a table in yours or the spectators hands. That's right the spectator's hands. It involves no threads, wires, magnets etc. You need nothing but a blue/red bike deck and this gimmick. There's no unusual(at least not for me) handling but there is a audience/volunteer control issue. It shouldn't be a turn off of the effect at all because it can be easily over come. There's only a problem when it "happens in the spectator's hands"

The big reason why I like this is the volunteer feels the deck cut. You, the magician are completely hand's off. I don't believe this if for everyone though, if you like you regular version stick to it. It will accomplish the same task.

I've been messing with it for a few days now and I've tested it a few times and it works like a charm.

My only problem is how long it will last and maybe a little "awkward carrying". It's only $13 and I think you justify experimentation for that much. I am thouroughly pleased and glad that I got this excellent reactions and I hate using "classic haunted deck set-up" so this is another pro to add to the list.

You can purchase at www.hismagic.com I highly advise it.



Overall
9.5 out of 10 took some off for the fact that it may break but it's a great effect.

Pete: Holy Bible?
Barton: Yeah.
Pete: Yeah, I think so. Anyway, I've heard about it.

I have used this years ago and they do LAST if you treat it well. I carried mine in a card box to protect the you know what.

I always had a great reaction from it. Just ring in the gaff and you are set!
