Gary Kurtz "Ghost Writer"
Here is a description from Hank Lee
(who doesn’t have them anymore):
Ghostwriter
From the brilliant mind of Gary Kurtz
comes Ghostwriter, the mentalist’s dream!
Imagine these effects!
Fold your business card in half and draw some abstract geometric shape on the inside surface of the card. Ask a spectator to merely think of an abstract shape.
He can make up anything he likes.
Open your business card, and your prediction is 100% correct!
Write a prediction on a slip of paper,
fold it and place it on the table.
Ask five spectators to each name a number between 1 and 9. Using these five digits, a random 5-digit "lottery number" is formed. Unfold the slip of paper on the table, and your prediction matches the randomly formed number, 100%!
Write a prediction on a slip of paper, fold it and set it on the table. A spectator merely thinks of any time, such as 4:15 PM. The slip of paper is opened, and your predicted time is 100% correct.
Perform the classic Add A Number routine in a way you never dreamed possible!
Bring out a small notepad and a brass can. Ask a spectator to name any person, living or dead. Write the name of that person on the top sheet of the pad. Tear off the page and hand it to the spectator. In addition, hand them a cigarette lighter and ask them to set the slip of paper on fire. Use the bottom of the can as an ashtray to hold the burning paper. Once the paper has turned to ash, lift the can exposing another folded slip of paper. The spectator opens it and discovers the outline of a human figure with their thought-of name written across its chest!! Death and Transfiguration will have the audience believe that you really do have the power of Voodoo!!
These are just a few of the many routines possible with Ghostwriter.
Ghostwriter uses No Nail Writers; No Boon Writers; No Carbons; No NCR paper. It is based on an idea that dates back to the 1930’s. Yet, it is as modern as today!!
