The hit series, Mind Mysteries, Series 2!
Taking mental magic to even greater heights!
● Surpassing the limits of traditional mental magic, this demonstrates the heights reached by Richard Osterlind. After live performances, all the magic tricks are explained in detail with Jim Sisti.
● Each magic trick is grouped into "sets," but each "set" is structured with a beginning, development, twist, and conclusion so that it can be performed as a mini-show by itself. If you enjoyed the previous series, you are sure to be even more amazed by this content!
● This time, some tricks follow classic magic plots. However, when performed by Richard Osterlind, even these classic plots take on a mysterious quality characteristic of a mentalist. Though these are familiar effects, the method remains completely unknown. The cleverness is such that even magicians will be stumped.
● In addition to many famous routines highly praised by other magicians, this series includes explanations of brand-new, never-before-revealed tricks! Watch the live recordings to see the genuine reactions of the audience and feel the impact. The explanations are in the familiar conversational style with Jim Sisti, allowing you to learn deep and multi-faceted insights.

Set 1
■ Ultra Board
The definitive classic mentalism where three items are predicted and written down beforehand and then revealed. His method is a very clever mechanism devised so it can be done using a completely unprepared board (no sliding panels, etc.). There is absolutely no forcing involved (not even the third item). The last third prediction is so ingenious that even magicians familiar with the traditional method of turning the board towards the audience midway will be surprised.
■ Spoon Bend
A completely new, gimmick-free way to bend a spoon. Just by holding the tip, it visibly bends. A new method that takes spoon bending to the next level!
■ Cutlery Spray
Three forks bend at the performer’s will! It looks as if they are bending from the power emitting from the performer's hands.
■ Very Modern Mind Reader
A mind reading effect using a small piece of paper and an envelope. This performance alone can elicit an overwhelming reaction from the audience.
■ Digital Feedback
The pinnacle of magic using a calculator! There are many points in the performance designed to amaze the audience, culminating in a lasting, memorable effect!
Set 2
■ Inside the Fold
One of Richard Osterlind’s most treasured secrets. An audience member is asked to say a number. When given a quarter-folded piece of paper held by the performer from the start and asked to open it, that exact number is revealed. A terrifyingly simple and strikingly mysterious masterpiece!
■ Stainless Steel Blindfold
A classic of mental magic elevated to a modern form! The performer, in a situation where their eyes are absolutely closed, guesses several things.
■ Phenomenary (Psychic Control)
A pen placed on top of a bottle moves at the magician's will! It can stop or rotate backwards, totally controlled as desired.
