Discover Phantom: Magic from a Living Portrait
Step into a new dimension of magic with Phantom, a groundbreaking system by the creative minds of Rezi, Hide & Sergey Koller. This instant download equips you with 7 professional-grade routines, all centered around a mesmerizing 'living' portrait that transcends reality to perform impossible feats. Imagine a classic figure like Harry Houdini not just observing, but actively participating in your illusions, pulling cards, revealing thoughts, and transforming images right before your spectators' eyes.
Unleash Astonishing Transformations
Phantom redefines visual magic, offering effects that are not only baffling but deeply engaging. The core of Phantom allows you to create magic directly from the portrait, whether it's a selected card changing its identity in Houdini's hand or a thought-of word appearing within a magical bubble. This isn't just a prop; it's a dynamic partner in your performance, bringing an unparalleled level of interaction and wonder to your magic.
Master Diverse Routines
With Phantom, you'll gain access to a rich collection of routines designed to impress any audience:
The Wrong Prediction Plot (Standard & Advanced)
Start with a classic transformation where a wrong card visibly morphs into the spectator's selection. Elevate the illusion with the advanced version, where a *signed* incorrect card astonishingly transforms, and then the correct, signed card appears to be *pulled directly from the portrait, under glass!*
Celebrity's Childhood
A true mentalism masterpiece. A spectator merely thinks of any celebrity, and you reveal a portrait of a child held by Houdini – a child who is, impossibly, the very celebrity they were thinking of!
Cloud of Thoughts & Prediction in Chinese
Perfect for mentalists, 'Cloud of Thoughts' allows you to pluck a spectator's chosen word from a book test directly from a thought bubble emerging from the portrait. Expand your repertoire with 'Prediction in Chinese,' enabling predictions of words and even the magical transformation of foreign script into your native language.
Duo Reality
Explore sophisticated deception with 'Duo Reality.' You can subtly force a card on a spectator while showing the audience a different reality. Watch as a drawn outline on the glass astonishingly transforms into the spectator's thought-of card, a testament to Phantom's ingenious construction and deceptive power. Phantom offers a truly unique platform for extraordinary magic that leaves an indelible mark.
Original Specs
7 strong routines included:
Wrong Prediction Plot
The spectator selects a card. You demonstrate that Houdini comes to life and pulls out a card, but it is incorrect. You wave your hand, and the wrong card transforms into the spectator's card.
Wrong Prediction Plot (Advanced Version)
The spectator selects a card and signs the back. You demonstrate that the portrait comes to life and pulls out a card, but it's the wrong one. You wave your hand, and the correct card appears. You then say that the card the spectator chose is actually under the glass. To prove it, you place your hands on the glass and pull out the selected card from the portrait!
Celebrity's Childhood
The spectator thinks of a celebrity, and you reveal a portrait of a star in your box, but it's Harry Houdini! Oops, wrong. But in Harry's hands, he holds a photograph of a child, and that child is the celebrity the spectator is thinking of! You wave a cloth and transform the child into Marilyn Monroe.
Cloud of Thoughts
A person thinks of any word from a book test, and you say you can predict what the spectator is thinking. You reveal a portrait of Harry Houdini, and he pulls out a thought bubble. You wave your hand, and the word the person thought of appears in the bubble.
Prediction in Chinese
You can also use a blank card to predict a word and transform a Japanese/Chinese word into a word in your language.
Duo Reality
You can use the portrait for dual reality. Show the audience a regular portrait, while showing the spectator a card (this way you can force a card on the spectator). Your card is in this deck the spectator thinks of a card. Harry Houdini pulls out the Ace of Spades. But you draw an outline over the glass and say that it's not the Ace of Spades, but a deck of cards. You wave your hand and transform the "deck of cards" into the spectator's card.
