Children’s Learning Voodoo Kit by Larry White

Effect: You get a corkboard in the shape of a coffin with a stylistic figure on it. wrapped in a piece of burlap tied with red yarn, and five push pins (one of a different color) in a little gold box labeled “Madame Double Kit Vaudou pour les Enfants,” and two pages of instructions/presentation in attractive cover.

Telling of a visit to a strange shop in New Orleans and being sold the “Kit Vaudou pour les Enfants,” to “begin to understand Vaudou,” the performer has four spectators freely choose one of the four identical push pins from the kit. One spectator is chosen as the voodoo “priest(ess).” All stick their pins in the voodoo “doll” while out of the performer’s sight.

Nonetheless, after removing the four pins, the performer is unerringly able to push the odd-color pin into the exact spot chosen by the priest(ess)! Can be repeated immediately, no reset.

I guarantee this will both fool and entertain your spectators. Superb props and presentation. Highly recommended.
