The Effect
I wont say too much， I’ll let the contents page do the talking… 

Introduction 

Who and where? 

Ideas and effects: 

Making Contact – Harnessing the power of touch 

Susceptible – The spectators eyes are covered with your fingertips. Despite them being able to feel your fingers， they feel touches on the back of their neck and head. 

Relax – A spectator sits down and closes their eyes， you are watched by a group of other spectators. You stand well away from the spectator on the chair and you ask the spectator to remain quiet and in a moment you will ask them a very important question. You silently stroke your shoulder a few times. You then ask the spectator if they felt anything， the comments that they felt you stroke their shoulder， despite you being nowhere near them. 

Distant Touch – Standing well away from the spectator， you gesture towards them and they feel you touch them. 

Focus – One on One， the spectator feels something pushing them from behind， despite your hands being in full view. 

Routines: 

Connected – An ‘experiment’ in paranormal communication that takes an unplanned turn. A lighthearted attempt at making contact with the spirit goes off on a diagonal as things leave the performers control. 

The Crying Child – A disturbing performance， centered around the spirit of a young girl. 

Visual occurrences – not effects on their own， but ideas to weave into existing routines. 

Burn on – A dead match lights just by willing it to. 

Ghost Glass – A borrowed finger ring is placed inside a small glass as an impromptu spirit bell. At any time the ring is seen to move and shake inside. 

Unaware – Events occurring that you are not aware of. The power of ignorance. 

If you like this kind of magic， you WILL like Shivers!
