Want a stunt book that looks nothing like a stunt book? Want a reproduction of the classic ghost writer’s second book of stories, one that you will be proud to display? Want a book test with no force and no complicated instructions to the spectator, simply ‘open the book and select a page’? Want a book test that allows flexibility in your performance from a simple trick to an evening of miracles? Want a book test that actually tells a story and creates a conversation with the spirit world? Want a bomb-proof book that the spec can handle and examine as much as she likes (can even read it from cover to cover)? If so, you want MORE GH*ST from Professor BC and Lebanon Circle Magic.

No peeks, no fishing, no force, no stooges, no equivoque, no control of any kind required, no Svengali method or short pages, no banks, completely free choice. May be performed as a séance piece, mind reading, stage, parlour, walk-around, and/or one-off. Perfect for use with Ouija, table turning, pendulum, and Tarot routines.

MORE GH*ST features Professor BC’s unique method, allowing the spectator to open the book absolutely at random and without a word said by spectator or performer, yet the performer correctly begins revealing the information found on that page: emotions, proper names, and unique words. Exact hits, not initials or generalizations.

MORE GH*ST comes complete with the following:

1.  A faithfully hand-aged reproduction facsimile of the 1911, first-edition More Ghost Stories with the complete text of M. R. James’ original stories as found in that book:


•     A SCHOOL STORY
•     THE ROSE GARDEN
•     THE TRACTATE MIDDOTH
•     CASTING THE RUNES
•     THE STALLS OF BARCHESTER CATHEDRAL
•     MARTIN’S CLOSE
•     MR HUMPHREYS AND HIS INHERITANCE

2.  Extremely easy method, simple and quick, requires primary-school skills such as counting and basic addition and subtraction. With a few hour’s work, you can readily perform MORE GH*ST the evening it arrives in the morning post.

3.  The book is bomb-proof with authentic text, paper, and binding. It contains all of the stories included in the original James book, each complete. No repeated pages or Svengali method employed. The book may be read cover-to-cover without tipping the method. You may even lend it to a trusted friend as your ‘trophy first edition of James’ and perform the effect after she has read and enjoyed all of the stories.

4.  In fact, you can enjoy reading it yourself as nothing more than a collection of tales from England’s greatest teller of ghost stories. This is no mere stunt book; this is a collectable reproduction of one of horror’s most famous books (originals of which sell for as much as £1,400 or $2,000). MORE GH*ST is modeled on Professor BC’s own first edition copy of M. R. James’ More Ghost Stories to ensure authenticity.

5.  MORE GH*ST is loaded with unique features that makes it unlike any other Prof BC book effect. Unique hits, unique routines, unique new handlings. This is a stand-alone effect . . . but

6.  Although MORE GH*ST is a stand-alone effect, it is also specially crafted to work flawlessly with GH*ST (if the performer owns that effect), Doppelgänger (if the performer owns that effect) or both! This is the promised ‘bridge’ book between GH*ST and Doppelgänger, allowing you to incorporate all of the books seamlessly into a single performance.

7.  Additionally, MORE GH*ST has been specially coded to support a performance of Professor BC’s most ambitious project to date: TRIPTYCH a multiple-effect journey into the world of one of M.R. James’ actual stories (The St@11$ of B@rche$7er C@7hedra1) featuring a substantial, museum-quality prop. TRIPTYCH is due to be released by the end of 2015.

MORE GH*ST is Professor BC’s most elaborate book effect ever. This release will be limited to 100 copies. After these are sold the title will be retired permanently.

Disclaimer. This reproduction of a valuable antique book is meant for performance purposes only. Any attempt to defraud others by attempting to sell this reproduction as an actual antique is strictly prohibited by the creator and distributor of MORE GH*ST.
