HUG by Nefesch 

HUG is the new “Thumbs up, Go like this” opener taken to a whole new level of visual madness. 



“HUG is a DVD with a collection of 6 effects. 5 of these effects are new, fresh and astonishing body illusions that you can perform anytime anywhere. In February 2008 I decided to perform HUG for some reporters of a National Newspaper of my native country (El Salvador) The Journalists were very impressed and made a nice article about me; and as a result of my HUG performance they gave me a “title”, a title I had never expected to get, this “title” was something that I had never claimed to be, but they gave me that title because that was what they thought of me after seeing my performance; they called me: “An Expert in Contortion”. Nowadays, I use HUG as the opener for my Show. The DVD also includes a mentalism routine with the ploy “Hugging a person” This mentalism Routine is the one I use as a link between my opener and the rest of my mentalism show.”

2) Hands Through Neck

3) Sleeveless Arm Twist

4) Arms Through leg (3 Variations Included)

5) A Jacket Levitation

6) A bonus Mentalism HUG Routine

“Nefesch’s HUG fills me with giddy delight! It’s so fun and clever. A brand new interactive puzzler that’s an instant classic!”

-Dan Harlan



“This is absolute killer. It’s very rare that these kind of gems are offered to the community…Guaranteed to become a classic in magic.”

– Peter Eggink



“Nefesch created an amazing yet practical body illusion. When you thought they invented it all… He strikes again with an original and practical concept! Amazing!”

– Guy Bavli



“Hug is one of those offbeat effects that many entertainers will start using straight away as a modern, more deceptive alternative to the much overused old version. You can involve a whole audience, or a single person with no prep, no set up and nothing required. What more could you want. It’s a great piece to have in the back of your mind for when you just need to do ‘something’ to impress people as you can go straight in to HUG with a moment’s notice and still blow people away with a visual penetration of your own body.”

– Ken Dyne (Mentalist and HUG Fan)



“I can see every magician around the world performing these illusions for generations. This will make history.”

– Titanas



“Hug is what I would call the perfect anytime, anywhere, effect. It is visual and stunning, and creates that magical moment of astonishment without cards or coins, just you and them. Hug will have them thinking for a very long time!”

– Justin Miller



“This will definitely freak people out”

– Dan Hause



“I was impressed with what you’ve developed with HUG, a visually stunning piece of any time, any place magic. And, the fact that it can involve the entire audience certainly makes it a rare effect in the world of magic. Well done!”

– Michael Grandinetti



“A natural, and logical step in an old gag that takes it and kicks up to date sharply and quickly! You WILL perform this.”

– Alan Rorison



“Hug is the perfect intro to any show! A fun and ideal way to break the ice and greet your audience. A beautiful set up for the rest of the show!”
