Penny Dreadful is one of my pet "no-batteries-required" effects. In essence it is a "reenactment of the famous Edwardian Parlour game" in which a player "wins" by solving a grizzly murder -- psychically. The kicker is she also somehow intuits the victim's exact time of death. It will be available September 1st, 2017. Here is a preview: https://youtu.be/_Aq7x_Mtc6c
I should note that the full routine averages about 6 minutes and, because I needed to add some additional information, I have abbreviated it here. None of the "work" is edited out (just some patter) so what you see is very much what you get. Enjoy. Christopher |

Nice. Looking forward to hearing and seeing more.
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

Well, a few people -- a lot of people actually -- have pointed out an embarrassing number of spelling mistakes in the preview video, so here is the corrected one: https://youtu.be/mGeslneAlFk
All the best, Christopher |

Not a bad price to include the pocket watch pendulum.

I would want tracking so the cheapest the site offers is $20.

This is a lovely looking routine. The use of the pocket watch as a pendulum, and especially the justification of it by predicting the time of death, really brings this deadly effect to life!

Got to put this on my want list for sure.
