Geist by Ian Harling and Martin Nyrup

Better the Devil they know…

From the authors of “Sleight of Mind” comes a book to inspire you to greater deception – “Geist”. Although containing a wealth of strong, real-world effects and their variations, “Geist” is also an exploration of how to give your routines more impact by changing them to suit the differing psychologies and beliefs of your Subjects – and how to revitalize and lengthen your existing material using simple strategies.

Although the information in Sleight of Mind can stand on its own, Geist is the companion volume. This book offers a continuation of Sleight of Mind. Geist offers many effects that illustrate the techniques taught inSleight of Mind. These are effects that go beyond mere tricks; these are demonstrations that are supposed to be presented as real demonstrations of contact with spirits or paranormal abilities.

”Geist” also includes :

28 effects, many with extensive scripts and handling notes, including a solution to “Reversal”!!!
At last, a way back to the Subject’s original number!

“Concipio” – a clever gaff that will allow you to predict names, numbers, dates, etc, faultlessly every time.

“The Envelope” – an indispensable, ultra-clean gimmick with tons of uses.

An extensive glossary to help you create believable scripts for your effects.
