Re: Mystic Window Penetration - Magic Wagon

The performer displays a beautiful wooden window frame, four sheets of glass along with four brass rods. The glass sheets are then openly inserted through the slots on the side of the frame and tapped with one of the brass rods to prove that they are perfectly solid, and they truly are. The front co...

Re: Equalizer / Joao Miranda

There are versions with Pepper's Ghost Illusion, Automatons, or various other effects built in.
