A Professional Routine for Advanced Thinkers

Renowned mind readers like Charles Foster, Bert Reese, Al Baker, and Ted Annemann have captivated audiences using just three slips of paper and three envelopes. Now, you can elevate your performance beyond mere mind reading to the illusion of mind control.

EFFECT: A spectator thinks of three unique pieces of information, writes them on separate slips, folds them, and seals each in its own envelope. These envelopes are discreetly placed on the spectator’s body—perhaps in their pocket, wallet, or even their shoe. The astonishing part? You already know the contents of each slip and the locations of the envelopes!

No gimmicks, impressions, or one-ahead techniques are involved—just three ordinary slips of paper and three unprepared envelopes, all of which can be borrowed. The spectator seals the envelopes themselves and can verify that the slips remain untouched.

But the true magic lies in the presentation. The spectator becomes a captured spy, and you take on the role of the interrogator. Through psychological techniques, you create a scenario where the subject is rendered speechless. Amidst the audience’s laughter, you reveal the hidden envelope’s location and its contents.

Next, you harness your mysterious mental powers to create the illusion of psychically shocking the subject with 10,000 volts! Without any physical contact, the subject is thrown from their seat, eliciting more laughter as you disclose the second piece of information and its hiding spot.

Finally, you reveal the last thought the subject has left, showcasing a high-quality act that has left audiences spellbound for years. But there’s even more!

Special Bonus Routine: Using the same method, you can control the thoughts of three volunteers on stage.

EFFECT: Audience members suggest various actions for the volunteers to perform, which are then written on slips and sealed in envelopes. The volunteers concentrate and successfully execute the suggested acts—one might run in circles squawking like a chicken, another may skip through the crowd, and the last could sing an aria like a famous tenor! Whatever the audience imagines, the volunteers bring to life. This is a remarkable performance that few mentalists can replicate. With just some borrowed paper and envelopes, you can build a reputation for extraordinary feats.

Everything is thoroughly explained and fully illustrated—nothing is omitted. YOU CAN DO IT!
