The Great Apple Heist: A Masterclass in Deception
Imagine this: two volunteers, a man and a woman, are preparing to make an apple pie. Each is given an ungimmicked paper grocery bag, and they take equal turns removing apples from a clear bowl, placing them into their respective bags until the bowl is empty. The astonishing climax? The man ends up with just two apples - not enough for a pie - while the woman inexplicably possesses five apples, more than she needs! For a truly mind-bending finish, your pre-made prediction, in full view throughout, reveals the exact outcome, even naming the lady. This one-man effect, with no stooges, comes complete with proven, hilarious comedy patter that will have your audience roaring with laughter before they're left speechless. No skill is required, making it incredibly easy to learn and perform.
More Baffling Feats: Candy Games and Halloween Magic
Beyond the titular heist, this ebook introduces two more proven stunners from Devin Knight's repertoire. 'The Magic Candy Game' is an absolute sensation for birthday parties. Two children take turns removing different candy bars from a bowl, yet miraculously, the birthday child ends up with five bars while the other has only two. This routine generates immense laughter and guarantees shouts of 'I've never seen that before!' 'Trick or Treat' stands out as one of the finest tricks for Halloween shows. Two children collect candy in their bags from a Halloween bowl. With a wave of your hand, one child discovers only two candy bars, while the other is delighted with five - all without you ever touching their treats! These routines are not just tricks; they're experiences that will be remembered long after the show ends.

Three effects are explained in this release. All are proven stunners from Devin Knight's shows.
Apple Heist: A man and a woman are told to pretend they are going to make an apple pie. Each is given an ungimmicked paper grocery bag, and each take turns removing one apple at a time from a clear apple bowl, placing the apples into their bags. This is done until the bowl is empty. Somehow, the man ends up with only TWO apples, not enough to make an apple pie. Amazingly, the woman ends up with FIVE apples, more than enough to make an apple pie, even though they took equal turns!
For a stunning climax, the performer shows a prediction (that has been in full view) that he made before the effect began; predicting the final outcome, even calling the lady by name. A one-man effect with no stooges that comes complete with proven comedy patter. This one will leave your audiences stunned as to how such a thing is possible. No skill and easy to do.
The Magic Candy Game: A great trick for birthday parties. The birthday child and another child take equal turns removing different candy bars from a bowl (no two candy bars are the same, which adds to the mystery). The child with the most candy bars wins the game. When one child looks in his bag he has only TWO candy bars, while the birthday child has FIVE candy bars. What kind of trickery is this?
A proven routine that generates much laughter and is a routine you can be assured that children haven't seen before. No more 'I've seen it before yells.'
Trick or Treat: One of the best tricks ever developed for Halloween shows. What is better than doing a trick with candy? Two children are given trick or treat bags and take equal turns removing different candy bars from a Halloween candy bowl until the bowl is empty.
The performer tells a story about two children who went to a magician's house and said, "Trick or Treat." The magician says, "Ok, I will show you a TRICK, using your treats without touching them!"
The magician waves his hands, when the children empty their bags; one child only has 2 candy bars, while the other child now has 5 candy bars. Baffling beyond words.
