SHROUD
In Volume Three of Le Val Classics, you’ll discover two powerful and innovative mentalism techniques. These methods are perfect for tarot readers who incorporate mentalism methodology into their practice, as well as contemporary mystery performers looking to elevate their acts.
A peek and a force made possible by a single, unassuming item.
POCKET PSYCHIC
An ungimmicked bandana, handkerchief, napkin or tarot cloth transforms into the perfect peek device. A participant writes their wishes on your business card, which is then placed face down in your palm. The card is covered with the handkerchief, wrapped, and set aside. This simple process allows you to obtain a flawless, foolproof peek at what’s been written.
BLACK FLAG
A shuffled deck of playing or tarot cards is placed on the table and covered with a handkerchief. The performer steps away, instructing a participant to lift half the deck, peek at the card they cut to, and lower the cards back onto the table, ensuring the deck remains covered. Despite the performer being nowhere near and no cards being visible throughout the process, the card selected was a force; the performer had complete control over which card was chosen. Two methods are taught.
From a small handkerchief in your suit pocket to a mystical cloth for ritual work, these methods transform ordinary fabric into a devious utility device.
