Good trick annoying musid Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 6th, 2016
Why does penguin have to put the same repetitive and annoying music in the background of downloads. It's bad enough trying to make out some of the poor sound quality of the performers, but to have that dreadful soundtrack drowning out words is unbearable. Stop it!

GREAT effect to have; highly recommended... Report this review

This is a powerful classic of magic, that ANYONE who has been in magic longer than a month has either seen, owns or heard about.

This is a fantastic download too; basically, suffice it to say that Jay Noblazada is an EXCELLENT teacher. You will have NO problems understanding how to do this after buying this.

Really cheap, easy to do, great download... Highly recommended!

Incredibly Spooky Effect - Clean Ending Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 3rd, 2022
This was the first trick I ever purchased from Penguin Magic, sixteen years ago. I’m still a lousy magician, but this is one of the best, spookiest tricks in my arsenal. It looks absolutely impossible. It’s easy to end clean with just one basic move. The rest is all prep and presentation. Setup can be a little challenging. But once it’s done it’s done, and the effect is worth the effort. The real mystery is why it took me sixteen years to write a review.

AWESOME Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 21st, 2021
For starters, Jay is a fantastic teacher, very thorough. You will have to purchase a couple small, inexpensive craft items, some of which you may already have lying around the house. It takes a little practice to dial it in but it's fairly straight forward. Spectators just go completely mental(in a good way :))

Can be performed almost anywhere. Takes only a few hours of practice and you are good to go. It does have a setup so be prepared. If your ok with setups, this will surely please your audience.

Small in size which means very good for walk around.There is an instanst reset which is nice. I like doing this while I am waiting in line or just dealing with money it's really cool and visual.

good to have Report this review

This is good to have for strolling and haunted routines. The handling will take some practice in order to allow the spectators to "examine" the bill after the routine. The quality is pretty good.

Classic Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 5th, 2010
This trick has been around for a long time, and it is certainly something to witness. A dollar bill is sitting open in your hand and all by itself it starts folding up. I would give this effect five stars but the set up can be kind of hard, and although it can be examinable, you would just have to set it up all over again. If you don't mind those kind of tricks, then consider this. It's really fun to perform.

Great Stuff!! Report this review

TITLE and Creator: The Haunted Dollar Bill

Effect: Have a dollar bill (or any denomination) visually fold in your hand, not once, not twice, but three times, all without you touching it.

Price: $9.95 instant download for Penguin, plus the cost of supplies and the dollar itself, total of less than $15

Teaching: I was a bit nervous to do an instant download. I was worried that the teaching wouldn't be very good or that the trick would require more manufacturing/gimmicking than I was really interested in doing. Boy, was I wrong. Jay Noblezada teaches the trick so quickly and well that I found myself literally saying "Why couldn't I come up with something like this?" The presentation is great, the audio/commentary is great, the video is a bit compressed, but I was also watching on my laptop, so that might be a bit better on my better computer.

Quality of materials(if it is a gimmik etc): This is, of course, going to be all up to you. I purchased the materials at a local fabric store and got the highest quality I could possibly find for a very good price. Because it's an instant download, the gimmick's quality is all on the purchaser. If I might suggest, if you get the trick, gimmick it with the color black. I won't go any more into it so as not to reveal anything.

Difficulty: The trick is incredibly easy to perform. If you can hold your hand in front of you, you can do this trick. I think it would benefit anyone that does close up magic. Restaurant walk around would work, out on the street, pretty much anywhere.

Applications: I think it's a great trick for close up magic, obviously. I think it could be put into a variety of applications and used in a variety of situations. I showed the trick to my wife in our well lit living room (about the lighting of any department store) and she had no idea how I was doing it, so I think it would be a trick that if you had the angles down could easily be done in broad daylight as well. I plan on using it for Trick or Treaters that come to the house this Halloween, as I am going as a magician and I would like to do some tricks for the kids. However, the trick has gotten good reactions from several adults that I have showed it to, as well. My wife actually went so far as to say it's now her favorite trick that I know. The trick is simple...and like I have read several times...simple hits, and hits hard.

Overall Rating: For $15 if you need to get the stuff, it's a steal. If you've already got the stuff to make the gimmick laying around (as I'm sure MANY magicians do) it's an even better deal. I give it a NINE out of ten. I really like the trick.
