Review

Jonathan Chase’s book, Deeper and Deeper, offers a comprehensive and practical guide to Stage Hypnosis. It caters to both seasoned professionals and newcomers alike. I was immediately drawn to Jonathan’s humor and straightforward approach, prompting me to revisit several sections multiple times. Even if you extract just one valuable insight from this book, it justifies the investment. I believe that most Stage Hypnotists, regardless of their experience level, will find a wealth of knowledge within its pages. I particularly appreciated Jonathan’s genuine concern for the safety and well-being of his volunteers, alongside his emphasis on the professionalism required for a successful Stage Hypnotist. I highly recommend this book and eagerly await Jonathan’s future works. – Grant Boddington, Editor of Hypnotes

Interestingly, there has been a surge of books and seminars on Stage Hypnosis lately, with some courses costing thousands of dollars. But are they truly worth it? Perhaps. Jonathan Chase, a renowned hypnotist from England, presents an excellent starting point for those interested in Stage Hypnosis. He begins with a clear introduction to hypnosis, its recognition, and the associated risks. I discovered a crucial safety technique that alone makes the book worthwhile. Jonathan introduces a quick induction method that ensures subjects are hypnotized by the time they reach the stage, a refreshing approach compared to traditional methods in the United States. He guides you on structuring your show and integrating props effectively. While he provides a basic outline for the Pre-Talk, he encourages you to develop your own script. Additionally, the book includes ten pages of routine ideas to inspire your performances. This book is highly recommended for all magicians and practitioners of related arts. – Bryan Dean, Magic Talk
