BRAINWAVE DECK

Brainwave Deck

An Effect so Incredible, It Must be REAL Magic! 

Years ago, Harry Blackstone, Jr. presented an evening of stage magic. In the center of the show, Harry began to perform the Asrah Levitation with his lovely wife Gay. When she started to lie down on the couch, a leg from the couch broke off. Luckily, Harry caught Gay before she fell to the floor. She gracefully walked off stage. As the curtains closed, Harry walked to the front of the stage, reached inside his jacket and effectively performed the Brainwave effect to an auditorium of 2000 people. WOW.  

Later that evening, Harry spoke with a group of magicians and said that you never know when an effect may break or fail, regardless of how careful you are maintaining your props. Consequently, he ALWAYS carried this deck of cards with him just in case! It provided him with an immediate opportunity to keep the show flowing smoothly, while the stagehands and crew reset the stage behind the curtain with the next illusion. 

The effect is simple, yet stunning with not just one performing climax, but two. A card is merely thought of by a spectator. You ask the spectator to imagine turning that card face up in an imaginary deck. 

You display a card case to the audience and keep it in full view. The card case never leaves the audience's sight. The audience member announces the card they thought of moments before. 

The magician opens the card case, removes the card deck and spreads the cards. He finds one and only one card that is reversed in the face down deck. It matches exactly the card thought of by the spectator. 

You then tell the audience that to prove there was no manipulation while spreading the cards, this card is also the only card in the red backed deck with a blue back. It is!

You can choose Brainwave Decks in poker or jumbo sizes, making this effect suitable for the close-up magician as well as the stage entertainer. Many performers purchase both sizes to be ready for all types of shows.
