Stairway To Hell

Postby Stephen Ward » Jun 4th, '06, 22:23



The Effect

A 10 - 15 minute routine using the 22 major arcana cards with a script about the soul going to hell or heaven. The basic routine involves revealing a freely choosen card you have not seen, a short 'reading' and a 'soul' card choosen by the spectator ending up in Heaven.

Note: i have kept the description vague as to describe it fully may 'tip' the trick.



Cost

£4.00 for manuscript only or £10 with a full deck of Tarot Cards only from www.blackhart.co.uk




Difficulty
(1=easy to do, 2=No sleights, but not so easy, 3=Some sleights used,
4=Advanced sleights used, 5=Suitable for experienced magicians only)

1, A MONKEY could do it (no monkeys were harmed in the writing of this review)

Review

Depending on the option you pick you get a nice manuscript or you get a deck of tarot as well.

The trick is very clever and uses a very old principle that when i read it i thought "why didn't i think of that!"

Once again the Black Hart comes up with a great product that works in the 'real World'. The effect is so very easy to do, so all you need to do is concentrate on the story and presentation. The instructions are clearly written and very easy to follow. The short script is very good and well worth learning. You will learn this very quickly, so all you need to do is learn the script or adapt it to suit your needs. Another great buy from Keith :lol:

Overall

9/10 very good

I like the Gothic Tarot that Keith sells, would look great with that. I am going to get 'Box Bizarre' next :P
