I have been ordering from Penguin for a long time. Very rarely have I been disappointed with something I have ordered from them. This trick is by far the worst item I hae ever purchased from Penguin. I don't blame Penguin for this. I love to do scary, "Halloween" type of magic shows. I bought this thinking it would be a great addition to the shows I put on every Halloween. I was very wrong. I bought this almost a year ago and I still can't get it to work. The gimmick is painful. Can't go into more detail. THe video makes it look very easy to do. When it comes you get a little sheet of paper with instructions that do not explain it very well at all. Maybe I am just missing something. If anyone has this and has had success with it please post it on the forum.
