You know, I have to eat my words... I thought I had the technique down perfectly when I wrote the
previous review but apparently I did not... I am fooling people left and right now, and only a few
figure out how I do it. I perform for pediatric patients, nurses, doctors... almost all of them
are fooled! I never would have guessed.
Best of all, this trick is very portable, rugged,
and easy to do. I just wanted to submit this second review because I feel bad about my initial
reaction being so harsh. Work on it, and you'll find that it's a surprisingly great trick to fool
your audience!

I've always loved seeing Shimshi and Justin perform thread work...but I always hated carrying thread
and getting it set. Never did any of it for this reason. But with the Spirit Key, you get to make
something move with your mind...and no threads involved.

Not much practice necessary, pretty much self working. However the more you practice the better the
effect looks.

I like showing this to youngsters. I find I get great reactions.

I've just got back into magic after many years. This effect can be totally cool if you work on hand
position (at or below the waist). Play around with it. I think the key (no pun intendeded) is to
have the key roll slowly after it has reached its apex. So it just doesn't seem like it has flipped.

After many years of performing the haunted key, I like this prop the best of all versions I have
tried. The routine is also very deceptive and I have switched to this as well. Great Value for
your money!

I don't understand the bad reviews. I keep this on my keys all the time along with Departure,
Linkey, and Keylicious I have a 20 min set on my keys all day. I wish the key came in silver is the
only problem I have. I have done a lot of bar performing and it's a great conversation starter.
Master the effect and it's not obvious to a spectator. I even performed it for my wife and she asked
if there was a magnet or strings. Remember you're the magician. Everything is obvious to us. It's
what we do!

Keep this in your pocket or on your key chain.
People think its uncanny. They examine it and
can't find anything wrong with it.
They try it themselves. Sometimes it works for them. Most
of the time it doesn't. Either way, its mystifying.

A wonderful routine, with practice!
The spirit key is a pretty good thing to have. I mean it is just so easy for my spectators to find
the gimmick when I give it out for examination, but it is still a thumbs up. I like it, and my
spectators fall for it. I like it!
