Card From Hat by Dingding

Created by: Dingding

Card From Hat is a close-up card magic trick where a spectator's freely selected card mysteriously appears inside a hat. The magician begins by having a spectator choose any card from a deck and remember it. After the card is returned to the deck and shuffled, the magician produces a hat (or similar container) and dramatically reveals that the chosen card has impossibly transported itself inside the hat. This effect combines classic card magic with an unexpected visual reveal, creating a strong moment of surprise and wonder. Buyers should note that this is a digital download product, meaning you receive instructions rather than physical props, and it's suitable for performers who want to add a visually striking card location effect to their repertoire.
