Hi guys,

I thought it was time to stop lurking and join the fun.

A little about myself. I'm a 36 year old man originally from the UK but now living in Stockholm, Sweden. For the past 10 years I have run my own themed entertainment company specialising in paranormal and "odd" entertainment products such as ghost walks, murder walks, murder/mystery dinners, stage shows, themed parties, guest lectures and what not. I use a classic blend on sinister story telling and simple magic to induce a strong emotional response from my guests.

I've been interested in magic all my life and use it regularily as a decive in my shows and talks. Although I lack the time, patience and dexterity for card manipulation and close up magic, I am really interested in the psychology and impact of magic as part of a larger performance and choose my pieces carefully.

I joined the forums to bring me closer to the world of magic; to help me learn more about a subject I love and as I want to start adding more advanced illusions and props to my shows. Maybe I can't offer so much technical advice to others but I can at least offer my experiences from performing from the past 10 years.

Nice to be here and I can't wait to meet you all.

Welcome aheads,

Sounds like a fun evening.

Interesting case of metathesis with decive and device in: "I've been interested in magic all my life and use it regularily as a decive in my shows and talks."

Thanks for the welcome.

I just noticed that in my original post. Oops!
