This digital download presents Christian Chelman's spectacular new work on bizarre magick, inviting you to step into a realm where the boundaries between conjuring and true magic blur. Chelman, a master practitioner with 35 years of studying the arcane arts as practiced by ancient magicians, secret societies, and 'primitive' peoples, lays bare the culmination of his life's work. Prepare to redefine your understanding of performance and connection with your audience.

A Curated Collection of the Supernatural

At the heart of 'Hauntiques' lies Christian Chelman's fabulous collection of 'haunted antiques' – objects imbued with rich narratives and a palpable sense of the supernatural. Imagine presenting a 'bottle imp', an extraordinary time-machine developed by Nikola Tesla, a complete vampire hunter's kit from 1899, or Captain Vanderdecken's cursed tobacco pouch. Each item in Chelman's private museum – from a bewitched Corona typewriter circa 1914 to the Fifth Seal of the Apocalypse – has been carefully studied, restored, and 'reactivated' by a team of specialists, ready to become the centerpiece of your next unforgettable show. This book provides the narrative frameworks and performance insights to bring these enigmatic relics to life.

Your Guide to Transformative Performance

Within these pages, you'll discover six distinct bizarre magick and storytelling shows, each a masterclass in engaging and sophisticated performance. Beyond the intriguing tales of haunted objects, 'Hauntiques' offers immense practical value: 26 different effects, many ready to be seamlessly integrated into your existing repertoire. The 192 hardbound pages (in the original physical edition, now beautifully digitized) are complemented by 148 stunning photos, most in full color, providing visual inspiration and clarity. An insightful introduction by the legendary Max Maven sets the stage, while four enlightening essays offer profound perspectives on performing mentalism and bizarre magick for today's discerning audiences. Chelman has elevated Bizarre Magick from the 'Cinderella of conjuring' to a powerful, immersive theatrical experience, and in this comprehensive guide, he shares his revolutionary approach. Your magic, and your perception of what's possible, will undoubtedly be transformed.
