Midas Touch by Peter Turner

Created by: Peter Turner

Midas Touch is a prop-less PK (psychokinetic) touch routine, a form of mentalism where the performer seemingly makes a spectator feel touches without any physical contact. It's perfect for close-up or parlour settings, creating an intimate and baffling experience. The trick involves guiding the spectator through a series of visualizations and suggestions, culminating in them feeling actual touches on their body, despite the performer not being near them. This trick requires no props, making it incredibly versatile and impromptu.

ReidFerry says...

Midas Touch by Peter Turner is a beautiful PK touch routine fully propolis... this is one of those effects that's really hard to do it's hard to practice it... but it's just so well thought out that that's pretty much the best way to do it.
