Paul Voodini – Murder Most Foul

Experience two chilling routines perfect for an eerie evening of parlor entertainment.

Psychic Cluedo (Psychic Clue)

Step into the role of a psychic detective. Using a familiar board game, you guide your guests through a thrilling psychic adventure. A murder has occurred, and one of your attendees holds the key to the mystery: the identity of the killer, the location, and the weapon. Can your guests unlock their hidden psychic abilities to solve the case? While they deliberate, you enter a trance and return with the crucial details needed to reveal the murderer!

The Whitechapel Messiah

Transport your audience to the foggy streets of London in 1888, where Jack the Ripper roams free and the authorities are at a loss. Employing pseudo-hypnotic techniques and common props, such as a thumb tip, you take a volunteer on an unforgettable journey. They will traverse the blood-stained cobblestones of historic London, encounter one of Jack’s victims, hear the distant police whistles piercing the fog, and witness the gathering crowd at the crime scene. Upon returning to the present, they will bring back a tangible memento—a blood-stained relic—proving their extraordinary experience was more than mere imagination.

Note: These routines were previously part of the compilation Five Fickle Fingers of Fate, which is no longer available.
