ESP Set by Tony Anverdi

Created by: Tony Anverdi

The Spirit Bell Deluxe Set is a premium séance and mentalism prop that creates the illusion of spirit communication. In performance, a beautifully hand-crafted wooden base holds a thick, resonant bell with a mystifying swinging hammer that appears to strike the bell entirely on its own, as if activated by unseen spirits. This creates a haunting climax for spirit cabinet acts, where the bell seems to 'speak' with whispers from beyond. The prop is fully examinable—spectators can even assemble it themselves without discovering the secret—enhancing the mystery. The set includes a bespoke Spirit Cabinet that doubles as a display case and performance prop, along with curated gimmicks and accessories for a complete act. Additionally, oversized marked card sets for ESP and storytelling are included to weave narrative layers into the séance, making this ideal for close-up, parlour, or stage mentalism performances that demand theatrical impact and audience immersion.
