Description & Effect
Unravel the Mystery with 'Unusual Clue'
Step into the intriguing world of 'Unusual Clue' by Unknown Mentalist, a truly unique and unconventional 'Psychic Detective' routine designed to captivate any audience. Imagine a scenario where, right from the outset, you, the performer, predict the name of a criminal. This isn't just a trick; it's an immersive experience where you play the lead detective, guided by an 'unusual clue' visible from the very beginning.
The Unfold of a Flawless Investigation
The routine begins with a participant randomly naming a 'victim' from their imagination, followed by another participant naming a 'witness', also conceived on the spot. These selections are entirely free-choice, with no force whatsoever. Then, utilizing the central 'unusual clue' – which has been in full view throughout – participants collaboratively narrow down a 'criminal' from a list of suspects. The climax arrives when this selected criminal precisely matches your initial, unwavering prediction. It's a breathtaking demonstration of intuition and insight.
Effortless Mastery, Maximum Impact
'Unusual Clue' is a testament to clever design, being entirely self-working and remarkably easy to perform. Forget complex sleights, tedious pre-show preparations, or the need for stooges; this routine requires none of it. It's instantly repeatable, allowing you to perform for multiple groups or individuals with varied outcomes, and demands absolutely no reset time. All you need are minimal, ungimmicked props: a small, normal envelope and three business cards. The envelope and two of the cards are even reusable, making this an incredibly practical and sustainable routine.
Versatility for Every Setting
While ideally suited for close-up and intimate small groups, 'Unusual Clue' effortlessly adapts to parlor and even stage settings, proving its versatility across diverse performance environments. Its powerful presentation guarantees a high-impact outcome, whether you choose to infuse it with humor or envelop it in an aura of profound mysticism. The comprehensive ebook provides not only the core patter and script but also includes alternative handlings, insightful bonus ideas, and even indicative printable props for your suspect list, ensuring you're fully equipped to deliver an unforgettable performance.
As praised by Luca Volpe: 'I liked how you transformed a boring mathematical principle into something more entertaining! Very good! Keep doing good things!' This 2016 first edition, comprising 12 pages and a word count of 2525, offers deep insights into this compelling routine.
Original Specs
A unique and unconventional 'Psychic Detective' routine where the performer plays the detective and using an 'unusual clue' predicts the name of the criminal right in the beginning of the proceedings.
A random participant names a random 'victim' - straight from his imagination. Another random participant names a random 'witness' - again purely from his imagination. These names are chosen totally at random and out of the blue and there is absolutely no force involved. Then using the 'unusual clue' (which is in full view right from the beginning), the participants zero in on a 'criminal' from a list of 'suspects'. This matches exactly with the prediction made by the performer.
Self working and very easy to perform. Instantly repeatable with a different outcome. Nothing to reset. All you need is a small, normal, ungimmicked envelope and 3 business cards. The envelope and 2 of the cards can be reused multiple times. No sleights. No preshow. No stooges. Although this is designed for closeup and small groups, it can easily be adapted to parlor and stage settings.
Powerful presentation with high impact outcome. Can be played humorously or mystically. Patter and script along with a couple of alternative handlings and some bonus ideas are included. A couple of indicative printable props for the suspect list are also provided.
