This method includes various adaptations like Mental Epic and 4th Dimensional Telepathy routines, as well as envelope-less versions where words are written on the backs of labeled cards. Experience clean and impactful mentalism!Person, Place and Thing. And Monkey: The performer presents a series of labeled images depicting different locations (Germany, Suburbs, Forest, College, etc.). A spectator secretly selects one and imagines being in that location with an object in front of them. The performer not only describes the location but also names the object the spectator is thinking of! (No fishing, no writing, and no pre-show involved).Additionally, there’s a bonus effect for those who sign up for updates: The Murderous Monkey! The performer displays ten cards labeled “Pick your poison.” A spectator chooses one card, while the others reveal various lethal poisons. The chosen card is flipped to show the word “Cupcake!”
