Psypher Pro by Robert Smith and Paper Crane Productions is a versatile impression device for mentalism and mind reading, designed to secretly give you access to information your audience believes exists only in their minds. Names, playing cards, numbers, birthdays, PIN codes and drawings are just some of the possibilities.

Psypher Pro has been designed as a practical utility that can be incorporated into objects already familiar to magicians and mentalists. The set includes three different sizes of the Psypher gimmick, allowing the system to be adapted to different performance situations.

Three Psypher gimmicks

2.5 x 3.5: The most popular configuration, designed for installation into a deck of playing cards. Once set up, the gimmick remains naturally concealed while providing access to spectator information and a variety of card routines.

2 x 3.5: Designed to work with items such as business cards and can also be combined with the included Psypher Wallet to create a compact mind-reading setup that can be carried in your pocket.

3 x 5: The larger gimmick is sized for a small notepad and can be used to obtain information during preshow or live performance.

Psypher Wallet and Psypher Sharpie

The set also includes a small black business card wallet. The tuition explores how Psypher can be combined with the wallet for name reveals, drawing duplications and ESP-style routines.

The special Psypher Sharpie works together with the gimmick to obtain information. Its secret feature hides in plain sight, while the Sharpie can still be used as a normal marker.

Over two hours of instruction

Psypher Pro includes more than two hours of online video instruction with Robert Smith, Brent Braun and Nick Locapo. The tuition covers setting up and using the system, alongside a substantial collection of routines and performance techniques.

Routines include Psypher, Voodoo Psypher, Three Thoughts, Name & Card, Card at Number, Birthday Reveal, Drawing Duplication, ESP Card Routine and Psypher Pad.

The material ranges from direct mind reading and revelations of secret information to drawing duplication, ESP effects and preshow work. Three Thoughts is Brent Braun's signature Psypher routine, refined over more than 10 years, while Name & Card is Nick Locapo's go-to Psypher routine.

Rather than being a single mentalism effect, Psypher Pro is a flexible utility system offering multiple configurations and applications for both everyday carry and live performance.
