Destination Unknown

Created by: Darren Close

Destination Unknown is a mentalism trick that allows the performer to seemingly read the mind of a spectator to reveal a travel destination they are thinking of. The trick involves the spectator using a website to generate random travel suggestions, and the magician accurately reveals the chosen destination without any apparent clues or communication. This trick is perfect for close-up or parlour settings and requires a smartphone to perform.
