Discover the definitive explanation of the extraordinary abilities of Axel Hellstrom, the unparalleled mind reader who astonished both scientific and magical communities. This work ignites conversation wherever it is discussed.
Magicians, occult enthusiasts, psychic entertainers, scientists, and deep thinkers have long pursued…
THE TRUE SECRET OF GENUINE MIND READING
No gimmicks. No stooges. No electronics. No mirrors. Nothing prearranged.
In any setting, with any group of genuine spectators, the psychic entertainer enables them to simply THINK of specific actions—mental commands—which he then flawlessly executes. Here are just a few examples of the possible demonstrations:
- Locating hidden objects
- Delivering sealed messages to unknown recipients
- Following mental commands like ‘take Mr. A’s handkerchief and place it on Megan’s head’
- Unscrewing a light bulb and placing it in the refrigerator
- Turning off the lights
- Removing John’s shoe, untying the laces, and tying them around another spectator’s wrist
- Finding the performer’s check hidden among the audience
- And many more.
Countless similar tests can be performed, with the actions known only to the subject. They are not documented or shared with anyone beforehand.
This remarkable dual effect requires no stooges or assistants. It is a solo performance, adaptable to nearly any situation. The performer maintains complete control throughout the presentation.
It can be executed under genuine test conditions.
