Magic Tricks

I’ve been performing Gaslight for a few weeks now, and it has quickly become one of the strongest psychological pieces in my close-up set. What I love most is how clean the entire routine feels from the spectator’s point of view. Every time I’ve performed it—whether in cafés, on the street, or for friends—the reactions have been a perfect mix of laughter, shock, and that beautiful “no way… how!?” moment.

The handling is extremely smooth once you understand the flow, and it doesn’t feel like work. After a bit of practice, the routine becomes second nature, letting you focus completely on presentation. What impressed me most is that Gaslight allows you to create a genuine mind-control vibe without ever feeling procedural. It plays big, feels personal, and hits hard.

I’ve performed it on both magicians and non-magicians, and it fooled everyone. The structure is clever, the scripting opportunities are great, and the effect gives you total confidence once you start getting those reactions.

If you want a modern, powerful, and believable psychological effect to add to your repertoire, Gaslight is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended.
