Mechanical Talking Skull by Abbott’s

Effect: Imagine the reaction of the audience when you can actually do the following: Introduce the skull, show how the jaw opens and closes, then place the skull on an unprepared table. You then ask the skull how he intends to signify the answer of “Yes”. Immediately, the jaw opens and closes once with a loud resounding rap. You ask the skull how he will answer to signify “No”. The skull opens his jaw twice, with two distinct raps. Then you ask the skull a series of questions, which are answered in exactly the same way.

A deck of cards is introduced and mixed. You may pick up the skull and take it right into the audience with you. Several cards are selected and you may hand the skull to a member of the audience and he holds the skull while a member of the audience asks the skull to tell him the number of spots on the card that he selected and also the suit. The skull answers these questions correctly.

This brief description will give you some idea of the possibilities of this sensational talking skull. Ideal for nite club performances for the reason that the skull can be placed in the middle of the floor, completely surrounded by spectators. Another big advantage is that it takes less than two minutes to get the skull set for each performance. There are no outside connections of any kind, no batteries or electrical devices. The skull is positively self-contained. When you want it to start talking, simply place it anywhere and the skull is ready to answer any questions that you addres to him.
