The trick that left Penn & Teller scratching their heads is back, and it’s sporting a fresh look with updated envelopes and instructions!

Back in 2011, during the inaugural season of "Penn & Teller: Fool Us", John Archer pulled off a cheeky twist on a classic that had the legendary duo utterly bamboozled. Enter Blank Night, one of the most entertaining and downright deceptive Bank Night effects you’ll ever encounter.

You present five envelopes and explain that just one contains the grand prize of £100 (or whatever tickles your fancy). The other four? They’re stuffed with zeroes, bits of paper, or, well, nothing at all.

Four eager audience members get to pick their envelopes, but alas, they all discover they’ve struck out. Naturally, it seems like the last envelope you’re holding must contain the jackpot. But here's where Blank Night deviates from the norm, earning John that shiny "Fool Us" trophy.

With nary a suspicious flick, you open the final envelope to reveal… £100! And not just that—it's pristine, unwrinkled cash that you whip straight out of the envelope. No dodgy thumb tips or sneaky body loads in sight.

You won’t find a Bank Night more straightforward and jaw-dropping than this.

  • So easy, even your grandma could do it
  • No sleight of hand required
  • No equivoque or forcing nonsense
  • No thumb tips or body loads
  • No envelope switches
  • Works with paper or polymer notes
After John’s "Fool Us" debut, he teamed up with Vanishing Inc. to release Blank Night, and it flew off the shelves faster than you can say "abracadabra." After several sell-outs, it’s finally back in stock with a snazzy new look in two eye-catching colours (Blue or Orange) and a brand-new video tutorial that makes learning this routine a doddle.

Blank Night is for magicians of all stripes. Each set is packed with specially crafted envelopes and the devilishly simple gimmick that lets you perform this routine within minutes of tearing open the box. You’ll get the full rundown on John’s routine, and the envelopes come blank for your artistic flair.

NOTE: A few dabs of restickable glue will be needed for the gimmick. Both John and Vanishing Inc. recommend Zig 2 Way Glue, which you can easily find online or at your local shops.
