The Witch of Glastonbury
A story is told about a fortuneteller. As the mage tells his story he illustrates it using old tarot cards. Regardless of the choices made, one always meets death. However death is the better option than who he truly meets in the end. The surprising revelation will leave your audience gasping.
This piece of bizarre magic can be performed quickly or with more of a story depending on your audience. It is a piece that really packs a punch and allows you to focus on storytelling and your audience.
You get three hand cut cards. No three are exactly alike so your set will be unique. Obviously it will differ somewhat from the photographs. You also get an aged envelope for the cards and an instruction booklet. The booklet is 5.5” by 8.5” and is full color and saddle stitched. It includes Peter Marucci’s original routine, a routine by Paul Prater and one by Christopher Gould.
I still make custom handmade sets. Those are produced as ordered, so feel free to contact me if you would like a handmade set.
No difficult sleight of hand, no switches, ends clean!
There is also an Elite Set available by special order only. Please contact Paul for information about the set and lead time to create it. The Elite Set is hand painted, hand assembled and aged with handmade marbled paper backing. The envelope is likewise handmade from high end papers. Truly a piece for the discerning collector.

What People Have Said
“After playing with this for a while I must say that I am even more impressed. The instructions are simple and the stories are great for getting the creative juices flowing and for helping you come up with your own unique versions. The cards themselves are very nicely done and the design of the cards are a nice touch - both the artwork and the way they are made to help with the "moves."”
Chad Crews
“"What a great product. Even the production value and design of the instructions are top notch.The cards are really well made and quite mysterious looking. I am very impressed. A big congrats to all involved. This is a story routine with tarot cards that you will use.”
Eddie Garland
“"You wouldn’t think packet tricks and bizarre magic would be a good mix, but it’s a beautiful marriage in this product by Paul Prater. The artwork is beautiful, and the back design is really pretty. The booklet included is gorgeous and extremely well written."
Joe Diamond
“I was lucky enough to see an early version of this effect, and Paul has quite clearly put a lot of care and hard work into this. This is an excellent routine with some great aged cards (with a different method than you would expect making this easy to perform) and a great story to accompany it. All that Paul releases is of the highest quality and this, I predict, will be a massive success!"
