The Fifth Card

In 2010 we released 50 units of the Fifth Card and they sold out in 24 hours. Now's your chance to get your hands on another of Brians Caswells materpieces!!

You request that your spectator relaxes and enters into a short visualization experiment. When she feels comfortable, you ask her to close her eyes and imagine she is walking down a long corridor. There's a door at the end of the corridor. She reaches it, opens the door and enters a plain looking room. It is sparsely furnished. The walls are a pale colour. There are no windows. Ahead of her, stuck to the wall, is a long row of playing cards. She sits down on an austere wooden chair.

You tell her to open her eyes and look at you. You stand holding the deck of cards. You ask her to call out the row of cards to you, exactly as she sees them in her mind. You remove the cards one by one from the deck, laying them in a face up row on the table, to recreate the picture she is seeing inside her head. She calls, let's say - two of spades, jack of diamonds, three of clubs, four of diamonds, nine of clubs, seven of hearts.....After six or seven cards you stop.

Eerily, it is precisely as you had pictured it!!! But that's preposterous. How could you possibly know? Because, you explain - you've been inside that room in her mind ahead of her.

You begin to turn the cards face down. This was the first card she saw, this was the second card she saw ......You continue turning down the cards. You skip the fifth card and turn the sixth face down. Then you return to the fifth.

Naturally enough, you also knew that no one would believe you. And that is why you left a little message. You turn over the fifth card, and on the back is written -

THE FIFTH CARD WILL BE THIS ONE – THE NINE OF CLUBS!!

This is a really commercial effect. It's easy to do, has an instant reset and a great mental presentation.

Now comes with a presentational handling by Stephen Beresford available as a downloadable PDF file.

Customer Reviews

Tony Quenten

This is one of the most popular effects I regularly perform at the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic.....probably the most unique place to perform the 5th card.....So easy to perform you concentrate mainly on the performance and story line, which is open to many adaptions.

Dave Braisby

Bought this when it first came out and use it on nearly all my gigs easy to do instant reset and its a worker highly recommended good demo as usual by Peter.

Jørn Hjulstad

A baffling effect with a spooky narrative. Great instructional DVD, as always from Alakazam. Jørn Hjulstad from Norway.

Mike Kent

This is a stunning trick. It completely fooled me, and has slayed everyone I've shown it to. The method and patter are so clever.. you almost want to give the secret away once you've performed it just to demonstrate how clever it is! A real winner and worth every penny.

Craig

This is a brilliant routine. The presentation and story is seriously good! The method is really clever. However, I have started to use it with a certain type of Phoenix deck, which I think opens it up that bit more. In conclusion, if you don't own this, why not?? Brilliant - Erm, did I already say that?? :)

Don Hardy

Picked up Fifth card on Saturday at Blackpool, very very impressed. Great routine, instant reset and a real killer with a bit of spookiness thrown in. Caswell does it again. Thanks Alkazam Don Hardy, Macabre Magic
