I just had this thought: You could combine it with a smoke device like vapr and have smoke swirling around the doll as it rises. Magical. Very magical indeed!

As for churches, whenever I attend, I make sure to leave the doll at home.

I pretty much think the result is predictable.

Funny you mentioned that, I was thinking the exact same thing an hour ago. Looking forward to mine arriving in the post, will be a long wait. as he or she has a long way to travel.

Without the first one I ordered arriving, I just ordered another. That's two doll's in the last few days. Going from what I have read here, I don't think I will regret my two purchases.

I saw a youtube video today of a performance whereby the doll kept on rising to the point it was straight up and down, it didn't stop there, it kept going and fell in the other direction. Awesome footage. Prior to viewing this video, I've only seen the doll performed upto a 45 degree angle.

PS,
Wow, I didn't realize how much our dollar has dropped overnight.
2nd order has cost me $60.00 delivered. Ouch.

Worth it if I can get the spectators reactions, I think that's where the true Magic is, it's in the spectators reactions and to brighten someones day. For me the Magic is in the response, the Joys or shock in people's faces is the real magic.

One in each hand. A double rise. Twins.

My favorite google search of the week. Just watched a performance video and nearly fell backwards out of my chair!



The charring inside the box lid is awesome. Gives it more of a sinister vibe.

That's a great looking box, I must find something like that for my two new dolls.

Are you suppose to receive a notification of shipment? I have not received any notifications that my dolls have left for there big journey to a new home to find more people to spook.

This has been such a great thread. I wonder if it's about burn out.

Still enjoying my doll's very much.

When they sing auld Lang syne, this is going on my list of top magic purchases of 2013.

I hope it can make a place in the Café Best of 2013!

Well it definitely has for me !! I have found more ways to cross the HD over & use with other effects to create new effects, use to enhance current simple effects as well as by itself presentations......I even recently did a few (on the fly) small performances with a Christmas spirit twist & even a representation of the rebirth (rising) of Christ with it for a Minister & couple his members Sat nite & got a surprisingly well responded applause !! (Who says ya can't do HD for church ! LoL

What I love about the HD is that be it in a creepy box or around my neck, it has been one of my top fav buys for this year ! The necklace idea use has been the best as I never have had to use the "wanna see something ?" approach. It has sold itself from being unusual enough that creates it's own curiosity for people to ask or comment on it - then the magic happens !

So my vote on Best buys/effect of 2013 will have to be the HD (for me)
Merry Xmas Devonte & Six !!!!

Yeah, Merry Christmas you guys!

Same here Merry Christmas...

It's got my vote for one of my favorite purchases of the year.

With all these votes, maybe we can elect haunted doll
president.

HD has my vote for sure.

Well, one thing for sure, h.d. has really (ahem) "stood up to all the hype."

(Please don't throw tomatoes.)

One of my dolls has arrived, What's with the DVD? I can not select the different chapters with my remote.

Spent a good 2 hours yesterday trying to get the doll to perform, ended up watching DVD on my computer. My hands look like I attacked it with sandpaper and is painful. Still sore 12 hours later and I could not get it to rise more than a cm or two. Tried all over. I found a much easier way to perform this that don't use the traditional methods as shown here, I can get the doll now to stand right up and no pain, requires an additional prop that I had nearby.

Worked great for me... It took a little bit to find the sweet spot, but I can now get it to stand completely upright now with ease.
