The Absconding Lycan by Magic Wagon
(c. 2014) (Submit Review) (Submit Update)Over the years I have seen many versions of Ribbon Fantastique and it continues to amaze me how simple it is to accomplish something so clean and surprising. The phrase “it’s a fooler” does not even get close to how wonderful this effect is.Invented by the genius Ed Massey, it remains to this day one of his most effective creations. Here is am impressive one from those clever guys at Magic Wagon.
The performer displays a frame with a figure of a Lycan which has holes running across its body along with a sheet of plexiglass with holes running across its width. The performer then places the sheet of plexiglass behind the Lycan and a brass chain is threaded back and forth through all the holes, locking the Lycan to the sheet of plexiglass. Despite the impossibility of the situation, the sheet of plexiglass is visibly lifted straight up, allowing the Lycan to make its escape from its chained imprisonment!
The Absconding Lycan stands approximately 14cms tall and 13.5cms wide and captures perfectly the ferocity and look of these creatures.
Effect: Based on an original idea from Mr. Edward Massey’s Ribbon Fantastique, we are pleased to bring you The Absconding Lycan.
Special thanks to Mr. David De Graef for his advice regarding the theme of this effect.

The photo really doesn’t do justice to this gorgeous prop. This is, without question, one of the finest and most exquisitely detailed sets ever produced.
Each set has been delicately and individually hand-crafted by our own artist.

Andy Martin –
The old Ed Massey Ribbon Fantastique and all of its variations was one of the really early effects that I remember very clearly from my teenage years – I had no clue how the miracle was achieved! Well Magic Wagon have taken the basic method and really dressed it up into this beautiful close-up illusion.
Hard not to love Magic Wagon these days, lots of amazing winners!
