From the creative mind of Dan Harlan comes a bizarre addition to the world of card magic.

Imagine being able to blur the lines of what is real and what is imagined in a simple card effect. With VORTEX you are able to create what can only be described as Real Life Special Effects.

A spectator selects a card while the magician displays the card along with another of the same value. the two become visually connected, stuck in a strange time warp. Was what I just witnessed real? Is it really possible to alter reality with visual proof? We may never know but with Vortex we can make it look like we can.

Vortex is an ingenious gimmick that you can carry with you at all times so you are able to perform this miracle anywhere, any time. Includes 4 gimmicks (2 Red & 2 Blue Bicycle)

I stand behind every product I release regardless of where you purchase it. When you buy a Dan Harlan effect, you get me too! And my support does not stop at the moment of purchase. You may contact me at any time regarding any issue (just reach out into electrospace to find me). So, if anyone is having difficulty getting Vortex to play strong, let me know, and I will help you get the reactions you are looking for.

Good Trick, bad video Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 16th, 2015
I love this trick, its great. But the video is just terrible. I love penguin because unlike a lot of magic sites their videos are honest and dont use fancy cuts or camera tricks. This video literally flashes the screen when the effect happens. If i had not bought this effect before i saw the video I would not have bought this. You cant not show the change happen in the video.

Otherwise the trick is great. It just needs to be marketed honestly.

Great!! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 6th, 2013
This is a great walk around piece of magic. Gimmicks are well made, and the teaching is very good. Dan goes into every detail carefully, and even repeats the effect slowly to show you EXACTLY how its done. Best part of it all is you end almost clean. If your like me, when you get this you will say, "You don't end clean!" But i was amazed on how the attention is drawn to the "safe area" and i never have to worry.

Dan did this for me live and I was blown away, it completely fooled me! 2 cards visually fuse together, this is outstanding visual magic at its best, and it's super easy to do!

Vortex Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 5th, 2016
What you are not told is that you must have large hands in order to turn the cards. The corners catch my hand and I can not complete the turn around so it is not a smooth transition. This was a waste of my money.

Fantastic, but where are refills? Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 13th, 2021
So this trick is awesome, simple, effective, visual, startling, and the admission price was worth the effect. Highly recommended. But seriously, where are the refills? They certainly wouldn’t cost more than your average gimmick of this type. I wouldn’t pay the money again just for the cards, but would gladly pay $20 for a deck of refills (like Tornado). C’mon Penguin, let’s be fair. A five star effect no doubt, checking every box for great visual magic. Minus one star for no refills

very impressed Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 16th, 2013
This is awesome, some people are downing this trick but maybe is their presentation, all good magic will work great with a good presentation, the DVD awesome the bonus effects were awesome too, the teaching he did was great, it took me a little time to get something down but I got it, I practiced this in front of a mirror and even record myself doing it, Ican say I got it, so I'm taking to to the movie Theater today to show it off. Dan great job on this one, this is my very first from you and I'm amazed with it, thanks. Add to cart people

Hypno Vortex! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 17th, 2013
I love this effect! I have all four gimmicks loaded in the four appropriate 'marked' decks, you magicians/mentalists who have studied this effect would know why I would do this.

I use this effect as a mind reading effect OR use it a tool to hypnotize someone in less than 10 seconds, you street hypnotist can probably appreciate this.

This effect is great and wish they had 'refills'! I don't want to have to purchase a dvd every time I need refills but I guess that's the way it is for now.

Works Great Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 16th, 2013
It takes a bit of practice..but it works really well and I was able to switch things up to be able to use it in my shows before I go into my Blindsided by Oz Pearlman. A must by if you do card magic.
