Welcome to the forum!

I thought you performed it quite well, but I'm not a fan of the whole "haunted" effects. While some may like it, it feels too eery (sp?) and IMO, just is weird. That my POV.

There are no gimmicks being used here. I've never seen Derren Brown perform it, however it is mentioned in one of his books - either Pure Effect or Absolute Magic. I'm not sure which.

I seen this trick in a childrens magic book. I have tried it a few times but never as good as you performed it. Although it is "impromtu", there is still one thing you need which you can get anywhere.
Nice

ooo it's nice. and at least you didn't do the card spread derren brown does befor performing this trick, there was always something about that spread that didn't sit right with me.
good work

Hey Folks!
I liked it. I had some trouble viewing it, but I solved it. It's cool that there are no gimmicks. Derren Brown has had some cool tricks. It was a nice performance. Two thumbs up!
Thanks,
Dominick

You are right when you say it is gimmick free. I really like haunted effects and I now use this one a lot. Nicely done though. I have not seen anyone else except derren do it. Good work!

To start off, you did a great job. I personally think it is an amazing trick. If i saw you do it on the street or at a mall I would also be impressed.
