I am hoping that someone here will be able to help me. I've been doing close up magic with cards and coins for a long time now and am interested in adding some mentalism to my routines. I can do a little with cards but not much.
I am interested in having a random spectator simply call out a number. However, before the effect begins, I wanted have another random spectator holding a sealed envelope with the prediction inside. I don't mind having to remove the prediction myself, but I would like to have the envelope be examinable if possible. Does anyone konw of an effect like this and where I could purchase it? Thanks, Craig |

Docc Hilford's number prediction in The Sign of Four? It's not as clean as having someone call out a number and you divine it, but someone does call out a number and you have other people involved to make that number even more random. I've used it, it's cool.

Buy yourself a copy of 13 steps to mentalism and study it. Inside you will find the techniques that will enable you to put that very routine together.
all the best

I would also offer Anneman's Practical Mental effects.

Both Mind, Myth, & Magick (TA Waters) and (I am pretty sure) Psychological Subtleties (Banachek) have takes on this that use an old joke/ploy. Having said that, 13 Steps and PME are what you should really be looking at if you are really "interested in adding some mentalism" to your act.

Take Looch's advice - the explanation is in 13 steps...
The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words.

Hello my friends! Thirteen Steps is the book you need to look at for this effect, there are many ways of doing something which is like this in those lovely pages! This is my routine for asking a question here on the Café:
STEP ONE: THINK OF QUESTION STEP TWO: CHECK IN THIRTEEN STEPS STEP THREE: ASK THE PEOPLEIN THE Café This is why I hardly never ask questions on here because in one way or another the answer is so often in that book! I see it now, looking at me from across the room! THE EYES!!! MR POPOBAWA |
