My 9-year old daughter is having a small party with some of her girlfriends around the time for Halloween. She asked me to do something "mysterious", not my usual magic. I´m gonna do "From Hell" and maybe one other mentalism routine, tweaked toward the bizarre. I also think that something with pendulum(s) would be nice. Do you have any suggestions or advice?
Thanks in advance. HÃ¥kan |

I think From Hell may be a tad gruesome for a group of 9 year olds.
Pendulum work perhaps with a pendulum board is an excellent idea and would probably go over well for that age group |

No problems for these girls, they're tough! Could you point me to any good ideas/routines with pendulums?

That book seems to be very good. Thank you. Do you know what he covers about pendulums in his Penguin lecture?

He are some themed toys the girls may like:

I don't have his lecture, just the book which is full of material. In general I prefer books over videos as they are usually much more value for the price.

Why not play a "Game of psychic deduction" with the group? The Penny Dreadful Detective can be played light, fun and very mysterious and uses a pendulum. http://taylorimagineering.com/shop/penny-dreadful-detective/

I agree about books vs videos. It was more a question of getting both

If they're tough, Docc Hilford's Living or Dead routine is a great one. Maybe suggest they think of a dead actor or singer instead of someone they know.

All suggestions sound interesting, and I´ll have to look into them. Is there something where the girls can learn to use and work with the pendulums themselves, no "magic" needed.

Now, that wasn´t very helpful, was it?
A more effective way, than to go through everything on Google, is maybe to ask pendulum-related questions here, where the experts seems to be. Reading your answer, I wouldn´t bet on you being one. I´m obviously not going to make a career out of this, so getting help from people who are knowledgeable enough to steer me in the right direction sounds like a much wiser idea to me. I have been nothing but satisfied with the help I have received so far. Good luck with your googling. Håkan |

I've not watched them, but youtube has many, many videos on how to use a pendulum. You may find one that you could have the girls watch together.

If you knew anything worthwile on the subject, but told me to google, you're not being helpful. If you really were trying to help, and your best answer is to use google, you are obviously not an expert. There is a third alternative, which I'll let you figure out.
End of derailing. HÃ¥kan |

No one is derailing, sir. You're being rude.
I never claimed to be an expert and you never asked for one. Pendulum work is about half of what I perform, and I use google a lot. If you don't like what I have to offer, move on.

Greerj: in itself, that is a good idea. The girls have not come that far in their english studies yet. And I cannot find anything in Swedish. Thanks anyway.
