Pen Twister

A mind-bending illusion for any situation… live performance or social media- perfect for street magic!

You put a pen on the outstretched fingertips of your spectator and cover it with a transparent plastic card. The pen is clearly visible under the card, and her fingers are clearly visible under the pen. You begin to rotate the card and as you do, the pen completely disappears from view, but her fingers can still be seen!  The ends of the pen are seen still protruding from each end of the card!  Your spectator can even open and close her fingers… her fingers are clearly seen, but the pen has vanished.  Now you rotate the transparent card back to its original position, and the pen reappears on top of her fingers.  To “twist” reality even more, you begin to rotate the card back and forth, spinning it from left to right repeatedly, claiming that you are magically twist the pen.  Incredibly, when you remove the transparent card, the pen, that was always in the hand of the spectator, is clearly twisted in its center!

• The transparent card is the size of a credit card, and can easily be slipped into your pocket or wallet.

• You can vanish the center of any borrowed pen.  To twist the pen, you must use the special pen supplied.
