Did a search and couldn't find a review on Stigmata, if there is already a post on Stigmata I apologise, but I couldn't find it.
Anywhos, I recently bought Stigmata which is a brilliant trick. It often leaves the spectators in a stunned silence, or so I find. There are 3 versions of the trick.
-The first version has the spectator take a card from the deck, they then replace the card into the deck and the spectator shuffles the deck. The magician, that's you, then tells them to think of the card and to squeeze (sorry if that's spelt wrong) their arm (the magician's arm), the number of the card then appears on the magician's arm.
-The second version is the same except the spectator writes done the initials of someone they care about and those initials appear on the magician's arm.
-The final version has the spectator think of a number between 1 and 10 and that number appears on the magicians arm.
This trick is very easy to perform and there are no gimmicks to it and it has to be one of my favourite tricks.
