The Effect
You go up to a spectator and tell them you want them to wish you were dead! Not just a small wish but a big wish for a really nasy death. You tell them that you are safe as you have voodoo protection and cannot die. You then hand a small packet of blank - backed cards to a spectator and ask them to mix them up well and spread them on the table. The cards are turned over and elimated one by one (spectator has free choices), when each card is turned over it is a death tarot card with a horrible death described on the card. This process is repeated until only one card remains. It is turned over and it says something really nice and happy as the fate for the magician.

Review
This really is a classic of magic. The choices seem so fair to the spectator and i have performed this quite a few times now with great reactions. Once again you get very well made props which will last you ages. The story by Keith is very strong. Now some of you may be thinking that this is too strong and in bad taste. Well worry not as Keith also includes the outline for a much less hard hitting story with a nice positive ending. Having performed this in the real World i can tell you this is becoming very popular. There is no reset, just drop the cards back in your jacket pocket and carry on with the next trick. there is no setting-up involved so great for table-hopping.
This is great for beginners and professionals. You will perform this little beauty straight away. It is just a case of learning the story or creating your own.
Overall
10/10 Thanks Keith! bless your (BLACK) heart
