Weird and Wonderful by Kyle Purnell and Vanishing Inc.

Created by: Kyle Purnell, Vanishing Inc.

Weird and Wonderful is a digital magic bundle featuring six effects, with a focus on Prolink, Cash Splash, and Swap Shop. Prolink is a penetration routine using a borrowed ring, a bill, and a paper clip, where the ring visibly links through the folded bill and vanishes, reappearing in an impossible location. Cash Splash is a mentalism piece disguised as a color/number compatibility test, where the magician reveals cash matching the spectator's thought-of number and colors. Swap Shop teaches four packet-swap routines using just eight cards, with effects like ink visually melting off the cards. This bundle is suitable for close-up, parlour, and stage magic, offering a mix of mentalism, card magic, and impromptu penetrations.

Effect

The Weird and Wonderful bundle presents six magic effects, with three standout routines:

  • Prolink: A borrowed ring visibly penetrates a folded bill before vanishing and reappearing in an impossible location.
  • Cash Splash: A mentalism routine where a spectator’s chosen number and color match the exact cash in the magician’s wallet.
  • Swap Shop: A card routine where ink visually melts off blank-faced cards, creating a striking transformation.

Each effect is designed to be visual, interactive, and adaptable to different performance settings.

Full Details

The bundle is a digital download priced at $25, offering 90 minutes of detailed tutorials. No physical props are required for most routines, making it practical for performers.

  • Prolink: Uses a borrowed ring, bill, and paper clip. The ring links through the bill and later vanishes, reappearing unexpectedly. The method is angle-proof and resets instantly.
  • Cash Splash: A mentalism piece where a spectator’s random number and color choice match the cash in the magician’s wallet. The routine is angle-proof and includes a strong kicker ending.
  • Swap Shop: Teaches four packet-swap routines using eight cards (four blank, four standard). The highlight is White Whale 2.0, where ink visually disappears from the cards.

  • Want versatile material for close-up, walkaround, or stage performances.

Information on How Difficult It Is to Perform
