Now in parlor size! These oversized cards are twice the size of the regular Eclipse cards, making them spot-on for larger venues and performances. The enlarged designs ensure that every spectator can catch the magic as it unfolds, opening up a whole new world for stage and stand-up performers.
Every mentalist worth their salt needs a set of ESP cards, and now you can snag one of the best decks ever created.
Eclipse is a secretly marked deck of 25 ESP cards (+ gaffs), meaning you always know which card your spectator is holding by sneakily glancing at the marks on the back. And these marks? They’re unlike anything you’ve seen before.
What’s the point of marked cards if you can’t actually see the marks?! A common quandary with the usual suspects; nothing screams ‘suspicious’ quite like a performer leaning in and squinting at the back of a selected card like they’re trying to read a faded manuscript. Eclipse solves that issue; the marks are SO bold, you can identify a card from the other side of the room!
Bold? Absolutely. Obvious? Not in a million years. The marks may be glaring to you, but they remain INVISIBLE to the untrained eye. Spectators can handle the cards freely, and even under close scrutiny, they’ll struggle to uncover the secret.
People will genuinely believe you’re psychic!
Eclipse is the brainchild of Dee Christopher, star of BBC Three's award-winning Killer Magic. After battling through hundreds of dodgy ESP decks at gigs, Dee designed Eclipse to endure. The cards are printed on sturdy plastic stock, so if they get a bit grubby, just give them a wipe. No more ordering a fresh pack for every gig you land!
If we just threw your brand new Eclipse deck your way with a set of written instructions, it would still be a decent deal. But we’ve done you one better (well, six better, if we’re being precise).
When you grab an Eclipse ESP deck, you’ll get exclusive access to a detailed online video masterclass with Dee Christopher himself. This video won’t just give you the lowdown on decoding the markings; you’ll also learn SIX impressive, hard-hitting effects that’ll have your audiences reeling.
What’s more, these effects can be performed separately or stitched together for a solid 25-minute mentalism show, perfect for both intimate settings and larger parlor gigs. Some effects play on the secret marks, while others don’t, ensuring you’ve got plenty of methods to keep your audiences guessing.
The effects include:
ESP Opener A spectator freely names any ESP symbol, and you reveal you knew exactly which one they’d pick all along.
Sensor A three-phase routine that lets you “see” with your fingertips. Each phase ramps up the impossibility. With multiple methods in play, this routine is unbreakable, and everything is completely examinable at the end.
Gambit ESP Five face-down ESP cards are shuffled by the spectator, who then drops an unread prediction on top of ANY card. When the prediction is revealed, it matches the chosen symbol!
Serial Reveal You predict the unique serial number on a spectator's borrowed banknote! This effect adds a brilliant twist to your act and gives you a perfect reason to use props (envelopes and pens) left on the table from earlier effects.
Distance The entire deck of ESP cards is shuffled by the spectator and spread across the table. From a considerable distance, you can reveal every single card the spectator selects. This effect is simply unachievable with any other ESP deck on the market!
ESP cards have been synonymous with mentalism since the 1930s, when they were first used to test for psychic phenomena. The undeniable charm of those five simple shapes has earned them a spot in popular culture, and now it’s your turn to work your own magic.
Join the ever-growing ranks of magicians and mentalists who prefer Eclipse ESP cards over the usual suspects.
