Never Bet The Devil Your Head by Francis Girola (Instant Download)
A captivating tale that concludes with a memorable keepsake for your audience. This is where mentalism intertwines with the bizarre.
“Never Bet the Devil With Your Head is a brilliantly crafted and engaging mental act ideal for intimate settings. Francis has skillfully woven together remarkable influences with a cunning method that will catch spectators off guard. The storyline is meticulously designed to conceal the method. Highly recommended!” – Steve Drury, PSYCRETS Committee Member, British Society of Mystery Entertainers
Every magician understands the impact of a meaningful takeaway at the end of a performance. As a mentalist, imagine leaving your audience with more than just a bent coin or a scribbled note. What if you could offer an interactive theatrical experience, beautifully wrapped in storytelling, culminating in a significant souvenir for your participant?
Never Bet The Devil Your Head addresses these very questions. Drawing inspiration from two effects by Docc Hilford and Paul Brook, this comprehensive mentalism routine flirts with the essence of Bizarre Magick. Your audience embarks on an imaginary Faustian journey, culminating in a chilling revelation involving a unique coin, which is then presented to a spectator as a lasting reminder of the intriguing experience they’ve just shared.
This effect is not designed for table-hopping scenarios. While the method is straightforward, its true strength lies in the presentation. Although versatile enough for various performers—magicians and mentalists alike—it shines best in quiet, intimate settings where you can create an immersive and dramatic atmosphere.
