"Imaginary Hole is a mind warping, hyper visual effect with a method that's just as stellar. Chiam Yu Sheng always impresses me with his clever ideas, and when you get this, you will see why!" - David Jonathan

"Super cool! A hole new world of magic to explore with this gimmick." - Chris Mayhew

Ink transforms into an actual hole that changes sizes and then completely vanishes. This super visual effect uses a handmade gimmick that feels like something Q would make for James Bond if he were a gigging magician. This is Imaginary Hole by Chaim Yu Sheng.

Here’s what happens:

The magician uses a permanent marker to draw a large black dot on the back of a playing card. That playing card is held at the fingertips, and with just a rub, the black dot transforms into a real hole. The permanent marker is shown to be able to pass through this giant hole. The magician then gives the large hole a rub, and it transforms into a smaller but no less real hole. One more magical gesture, and the hole vanishes completely.

Imaginary Hole is a killer opening effect for any card magician. The gimmick comes made in red Bicycle Rider Back, so it can be added to the deck of cards you already use. The gimmick is completely self-contained, and there are no arts and crafts required. It’s ready to go right out of the box. In addition to the gimmick, you receive an instructional video that will teach you to perform additional handlings of Imaginary Hole in any environment; no black shirt required. Imaginary Hole is super easy to do, with the gimmick doing nearly all of the work. Transform just a bit of ink into huge reactions with Imaginary Hole by Chiam Yu Sheng.

After the first gimmick being defective, Penguin was very prompt about sending a replacement.
Although the gimmick is very hard to work especially trying to go back to the original position. I would not advise to purchase this gimmick

... terrible disappointment...! Report this review

It's clumsily designed, very difficult to make it work, you need a black shirt, won't fool anyone who is near you and can see the crease on the card... Can't recommend it.

This is a very simple gimmick but it works well. I replaced the king of hearts in another packet trick deck and get 2 tricks out of the one deck.

I recently received this effect, and immediately watched tutorial video.
Then , I got into playing and practicing a routine. Initially, gimmick was a little stiff to use. However, after some practice it was fine.
I don’t know about longer term durability of gimmick, so I’ll buy another back up effect.
I will add to my close up and strolling routine.
It’s visual, huge impact and easy to use.
I don’t believe that audience will pick seeing the gimmick, so I have no concerns there. With handling, you will be able to cover gimmick when displaying the card to spectators.

This is a close up trick or can be used on a close virtual show, but I think it would be better in person. I also believe a larger version could be constructed from jumbo cards. At any rate it is a very good close up miracle.
