Default Impromptu Haunted Deck



Something I've worked on for a while...

nice, i think you might have used a sneaky thing, but i do too when i perform my version of the haunted deck( i actually call mine "Naughty Ghost"), or just about every trick there is...

BTW, just asking to be sure, if i use a certain kind of deck( actually it's a normal deck, but it is partly faulted) to perform the effect, does it count as using gimmicks?

I would say it would be simply prepared if it can be done on the spot without additional uncommon props, such as taking a pen and marking the back of a card. I believe a gimmick to be more heavily prepared than such an example I gave above.

even if the DECK itself can be counted as gimmicked( it was faulted, so it have a special characteristic that none other decks i own and seen has)?

Then I guess it is gimmicked. If you cannot do it with another deck besides your own because of some modifications to it... then I guess that's it.

Oh, we all know about that. Vector is one of my favorites, but it is pretty hard to perform the "shooting out move"... Also, for future references, if you want to embed a video right on the page, use this code!

nay, that's not the hard part, not for me( i can't even stop the card from shooting out even if i try), the hard part is doing the haunted move without people suspecting anything

It's not hard to do, but it's hard to convince people with it...

I find the move's not that hard but getting the card to come all the way out and fly out onto the floor the hard part, also when getting into shot out "position" I find it diffcult unless I square the deck a little with my other hand.
