This DVD is OUTSTANDING. For years, I avoided using mentalism in my act because I didn't think I had the right "people skills" to pull off readings, predictions, and so forth. EERIE changed my entire mindset. Richard's teaching is very clear, and he reveals the method for each amazing effect step-by-step. He also demonstrates just how much work is behind his seemingly effortless performances. (By the way, if you order this DVD, I can almost guarantee that you'll also want to purchase the Devil's Hank Richard offers for use in the crystal ball routine.) I cannot recommend this DVD set highly enough!
