Performing magic card tricks with your friends or audience in the same place is normal. But if I tell you that there are some card tricks you can perform over the phone, will you believe me? Well, you might think it’s impossible. But it is actually possible. Also, it is very easy and even you can do it.

I have a magic trick that can be performed over the phone. It’s called The Mentalist. You can present this at your next party.

Tell your audience in the room that you have a friend who is probably the best mind reader in the world today. He reads thought waves, brain waves and is an ESP expert. I wish you were here tonight, but you have his phone number and would like to give it a try to see if you can use your long distance telepathy.

Then you select one of the viewers to be your viewer. After that, spread the cards on the table, face up, and have your spectator select a card. You have seen this card along with everyone else in the room. Let’s say, for example, that the chosen card was the Four of Diamonds.

Then you say: “Let’s be calm and nobody mentions the Four of Diamonds. I’ll call my friend and you can talk to him. When you find him, ask him to tell you which card we choose. Dial, it’s a number that is not on the list” .

Naturally, the party you’re calling should know the trick. It may be a close friend or perhaps a member of your family. Dial the number and when you answer, you will say, “May I speak to the mentalist?”

This is the code and he knows you are doing the trick. Then it will start to name the four suits slowly. As soon as he names the correct one (Diamonds, in this case), you stop him by saying, “Hello mentalist?”

Now he will number the cards quickly, Ace, two, three, four …, he will interrupt as soon as he has named the correct card. “Wait a moment please.”

Give the phone to the spectator in the room who has chosen the card. It will ask the mentalist for the name of your card. Ask your friend to tell you the name, but it should be done in stages, such as: “You have chosen a card with red faces. I think it is a Diamond. A fairly low card. Please focus. I think it is the Four of Diamonds. Thanks for calling. “

It will hang up immediately. The impact is good, but under no circumstances does he offer to repeat this card trick. And don’t reveal the number you dialed.
