"A modern day Haunted key worthy of its own Shrine! BUY IT!" - Rocco Kult

"This is awesome!! Using a key makes this effect organic and natural - i love it" - Liam Levanon

"Key Motion by Seth Race is one of the best Every Day Carry items I have even seen. This little miracle will live in my pocket!" - Cody S. Fisher

"Key Motion is a brilliant new take on the classic and the perfect opportunity to put the cards away. I love the presentation and the visual is astounding!" - Roddy McGhie

"I always loved the visual of the Voodoo Doll effect, but the prop never fit my style or character. Seth has now made this way more universal - it’s great!" - David Jonathan

Bring the Haunted Key into the 21st century. A house key rises as though lifted by a spirit or psychic energy. With no strings or magnets, this special key lets you perform an incredibly visual piece of magic with an object everyone recognizes. This is Key Motion by Seth Race.

Here’s what happens:

You take a key off your keychain and place it in your spectator’s hand to absorb some of their energy. You take the key back and place it in the palm of your hand. Slowly, the key begins to lift off of your hand until it’s standing straight up! Then, with a release of tension the key falls back down as the energy evaporates away.

The Haunted Key is an effect that has been beloved by magicians for hundreds of years, but it has fallen out of favor in recent years because you had to use an old skeleton key. Now, Seth Race has taken a clever PK method and built it into an ordinary house key so you can perform incredible visual magic. The method is completely self-contained and as easy to perform as opening your hand. The tutorial is taught in depth by Dan Harlan, who contributes his own insight into this astonishing effect. Activate the spirits within when you perform Key Motion by Seth Race.

Very Disappointing Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 22nd, 2024
For the price a duplicate non-gimmicked key should have been supplied, especially since they scimped on not putting teeth on the key!

Not worth the trouble Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 28th, 2024
"Disappointed" best describes my reaction after working with this prop for several days. The method is not worth the trouble, the prop's construction makes it something I would not want to "carry around," it cannot be examined and it is difficult to find a regular key that looks like the prop. Yes, there are similar regular keys, but none that look LIKE the prop. This one will go into my dust bin.

The gimmick broke... Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 28th, 2024
So, this is a great take on the VooDoo Doll in your hand and cleaner where VooDoo is a NO NOOOOO...

I did what Seth has stated, "Put it on your key ring and carry it around..." BULL POOPY!!! the gimmick catches on my pocket and pulls and bends and the rubber cement holding it weakens...

I suggested a better way to the P3 team and they liked it. I will not reveal here but suffice it to say, it'll keep that damn gimmick in place.

This is what trial and error and Quality Assurance Testing is all about. I'm a Sr. Software Engineer and putting software through the rigors of QA testing is part of my job.

Then the QA test results come back for the Developers (me) to fix the UI/UX and APIs.

Magic is the same thing. Seth's idea on the VooDoo is wonderful, but after QA testing, I found flaws, made suggestions and now, I'm going to fix it, and send my results back to the P3 Team for Seth to analyze. They are WONDERFUL and are sending me a new Key Motion at no charge. THIS IS WHAT CUSTOMER SERVICE is all about.

Being a Magician since I was 14 - I'm 63 now, and selling magic as a Murphy's and P3 wholesaler, it's vital that you take care of your customers.

My new solution will be made, tested and the results noted.

Magically,

YMMV - doesn’t work great for me Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 13th, 2024
This is yet another trick where my hands simply aren’t physically right for the trick to work optimally. I have no problem setting up the key as instructed, but when it comes time for execution the best I can get is a key that limply rolls along my palm /fingers to one side or the other. It won’t, um, “stand to attention” (do they make Viagra for keys?). It looks OK, but not nearly as impressive as it should. Plus it was impossible for me to execute the necessary flexing movements in a subtle manner - I REALLY need to stretch to get any movement.

I have tried various locations on the palms of both of my hands, but it seems that my skin is too loose to get the necessary tension when flexed, probably because I lost a significant amount of weight a few years back. I was going to give this three stars but decided to be more generous since YMMV. In my case my M had more V than I would like to perform this convincingly or comfortably.

Also, it would have been nice to receive a duplicate ungimmicked key for handout/inspection, although the gimmicked key can be handed out quickly/casually before performing the illusion and perhaps only the most observant onlooker will notice. However, a more exact matching duplicate would be nice to hand out to the anyone who insists on seeing it after the trick is done. The Ilco key Dan recommends does not match closely enough to me (heavier, chrome vs matte, big logo on key, etc.). Maybe Penguin could sell the duplicate for $5 (the blank probably costs 50 cents or less in bulk)?

Harlan misses the mark with this kids trick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 20th, 2024
I watched the tutorial as soon as I purchased and knowing what the method was (penguin was pretty open about this on social media when I asked which of the two most likely methods it could be),I must say I was a little let down and didn't buy Dan's explaining away why a duplicate wasn't included in the kit. After receiving the product I was gonna post a negative review with a bit of fiddiling around but decided to rewatch the 30 minute or so tutorial again. Adults I showed this trick were completely underwhelmed, however I showed three kids that day out on the pitch and the reactions that I got when I put the power with the kids and their belief in themselves were absolutely phenomenal getting bigger reactions than super sucker and that's a pretty difficult trick to top with moments of astonishments and a free lolly.
So I'm totally unconcerned about a duplicate and a convincing match because the reactions of the parents to the pure joy creates in their children's faces is the only convincer you need. Dan does a pretty good job with the tutorial but felt he and Seth Race missed the mark with the target audience here. Cellini said "stop a child and you can stop the world" in that regard this is the ultimate opener to gathering a crowd out on the pitch!!!!

Disappointed Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 29th, 2024
I'm disappointed with the "gimmick" because I can't expect an up-and-coming young magician to use it. It's not for everyone.

Great effect but not durable Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 14th, 2024
I love performing this effect - it doesn’t really hurt if you do it right, and the reactions are great. Unfortunately the construction is not very durable and after only a few hours the first day, the gimmick snagged and fell off in my pocket. I’m sure I’ll be able to reattach it with some glue but I’m a bit disappointed it fell apart so easily.

Decent Trick - Deceptive Video Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 8th, 2024
For the trick itself: The trick is decent. The video shows what you can indeed do with it. It is not exceptionally well made but will last you a while with care.

For the promo: While the video itself shows what you can do it doesn't show what you are getting. You are getting an uncut key while the video shows a cut key. It even shows a cut key saying "...and it looks just like every ordinary key..."

I do rate it less because it wasn't what was advertised. I would have preferred the cut key. Due to the way the trick works it would be difficult to have it cut.

OUCH! Report this review

I have yet to get this to work for me. Maybe someone can do it, but I can't do it with my hands!
