Before you watch this video, have a look at the instructions or read the description below — they contain the secrets that will help you master the trick. Remember, the real magic lies in the details!
The trick in a nutshell
- Amaze your audience by making colourful drawings magically appear on the pages of a book.
- The secret lies in the pages being cut to the right size so that, as the pages are turned, the audience sees three different effects in three places.
How to perform
- Take the Enchanted Book and hold it in one hand, as shown in the video. Keep your thumb on the bottom corner of the pages.
- Holding the bottom right-hand corner, quickly flick through the book. The audience will see only white, blank pages.
- Close the book and cast a spell over it by waving your other hand above it. Now move your thumb to the top corner. Flip through the book. All the pages are black and white!
- Close the book for the third time and cast a spell on it again by waving your other hand over it. Place your thumb in the middle of the book’s side edge and quickly flip through the pages. This time, the pages are full of colour!
