The Devil Eight My Card is an easy to do miracle from magic creator Matt Pilcher.
Using a borrowed deck, with ZERO set-up your spectator takes out ANY eight cards. They are then asked to think of any one of the eight cards and to remember it.
The cards are then shuffled and mixed, the spectator getting to decide where cards go in the shuffle. REMEMBER the magician DOES NOT know what card the spectator is thinking of. The cards are placed on the table and the magician NEVER touches the cards again from this point. It is only at this point when the cards are out of the magicians hands, that the spectator can name the card they are thinking of.
The spectator is then instructed to look through the cards, their thought of card has completely disappeared! What happened to it? Where did it go? .. The Devil has taken it!
A few points to remember.
- This can be done 100% impromptu with a borrowed shuffled deck.
- All you need is eight cards. (of the spectators choice)
- You really DON'T know what card they're thinking of.
- There is ZERO set-up! If someone has eight cards, you're good to go.
