Effect
The Halloween Deck creates a spooky and themed experience for an audience. A magician uses a deck of cards that looks completely normal from the front. The backs of the cards, however, feature a custom Halloween design. This visual theme instantly sets a festive and creepy mood for magic performed at Halloween parties or shows. The magic itself remains powerful and deceptive, but the themed deck adds a layer of atmosphere and fun.
