"That's remarkable. That's a miracle. That's true astonishment right there."
- Justin Miller
EVOKE is your golden ticket to forge meaningful connections with your audience faster than you can say “abracadabra.”
Let’s be honest, mentalism with playing cards can sometimes feel like trying to explain quantum physics to a goldfish.
BUT... swap out the mundane card values for evocative words and phrases, and suddenly you’ve got a direct line to their heartstrings, making them your secret weapon.
For instance: with EVOKE, you can take a standard card peek/reveal and supercharge it into something deeply impactful. And trust me, this is just scratching the surface.
"I genuinely believe that you have solved the problem of Playing cards in mentalism because if you use the EVOKE deck you can basically do any card trick, any sleight of hand and it will have a mentalism edge to it that will totally transform the trick into anything now. This is an amazing achievement!"

Crafted by the brilliant Phill Smith, this deck features a sneaky peek system artfully embedded in the back design of each card. It’s a secret only you’ll be in on. Once you’ve cracked the code, you’ll never miss it again, but those in the dark? They’ll be none the wiser.
Every single card discreetly delivers the following intel in a flash:
PEEK INFO:
- Emotion Word
- Black & White or Colour
- Which image
- MOAB Word
- Next Emotion Card in Stack

THE DECK DOES THE WORK FOR YOU.But don’t think it’s just basic info printed on the cards... Craig has woven together both fresh and classic, cunning magic principles throughout the deck that will have your audience convinced you can read their minds.
"People might not always remember what you did, but they remember how you made them feel."- Marc SpelmannPrinciples, Peeks, and Peters.You know it’s a Craig Petty Project when you’ve got a dream team backing it.
First up, we’ve got Peter Nardi – a mentalism legend known for crafting accessible yet mind-boggling routines. He’s here to share his go-to tricks using EVOKE.
If that’s not enough, Craig pulled a few strings to get Peter Turner to sit down and spill a treasure trove of ideas and tricks!
Many consider Peter Turner to be one of the top mentalists out there, right up there on the Mount Rushmore of mentalism creators.
What Peter shares is worth the price of admission all on its own. No joke.
ONE MORE THINGIf you’re dipping your toes into mind reading, EVOKE is the perfect launchpad into proper mentalism. Peeking a card is a doddle, but the thought of cold reading might send shivers down your spine... fear not!
We managed to snag Ian Rowland, the chap who literally wrote the book on cold reading, to film a two-hour Maestro Class at The Magic Circle UK Headquarters. This lesson on cold (and warm) reading, specifically using the EVOKE deck, is unlike anything you’ve seen before.
We won't spill any more beans – this special addition is exclusively for EVOKE owners.
"If I had to sum it up in one word... WOW."- Mark ElsdonTap directly into your spectator's emotions like never before. With the power of Evoke, your audience will truly become your secret weapon.
What other magicians are saying:"I generally think this is one of the best products for the mentalist that I've seen in years"- David Jonathan"When you leave people with an emotion, it changes everything... this is the mentalism that people will remember."- Luca Volpe"One of the things I love about these is that these are all about emotion and you've just got so many different directions you can go in."- Marc Chandaue"If you have a layperson think of a card and you reveal it - it's mind-blowing. But if you're attaching emotion to that, then that's proper powerful stuff"- Roddy Mcghie"It's really incredible, I just want it, I want it already! It's got to be one of those things that every Mentalist is going to have, and they're all going to use it!"- John Morton"Because we're humans, and we've got emotions. So, if you can connect with somebody, then everything not only looks better, but it just feels better."- Joel Dickinson"I'm kind of excited about this deck of cards because some people are not as comfortable with the processes that might be involved in even just the fundamentals of basic mentalism. And this is like a cheat code for it."- Jake Keane
