"Spidey has taken a classic concept, made the props as natural as possible, the method as deceptive as can be with a core principle that can be learned within minutes of understanding its brilliance." Colin Cloud

"This trick is so good I endorsed it for free." Chris Ramsay

"A.B.See" from Spidey is so much more than a simple trick. It's a versatile tool that will convince your spectators that you have the ability to peer into their thoughts and understand the most unique intricacies of their personality. It's like a window into their minds. And all it takes is a a simple set of specially-made flashcards.

Your spectator secretly selects one of the images on the flashcards. With your head turned away, you can not only identify the choice but reveal so much more about them. You could never get this type of connection with a simple card trick.

The "A.B.See Deck" looks completely innocent on the surface. But, hidden in plain sight, is a devious new method that enables you instantly know what they're thinking. They can examine the cards forever and will never find a thing. It's a totally free choice and there are no hidden markings to uncover. You're going to love how practical and clever this method is.

• Incredibly easy to perform.
• NO difficult sleight of hand.
• Can be learned in minutes, even by beginners.
• No hidden markings. The spectators will never find anything.
• Nothing to hide or ditch.

Each "A.B.See" set comes with 2 complete sets of professional quality alphabet flashcards printed on high-quality United States Playing Card Company stock. You'll also receive a more than 2-hour tutorial featuring multiple routines plucked directly from Spidey's professional repertoire—including a special routine for handling difficult hecklers. This tutorial is also a masterclass in mentalism that will help you you get the most out of "A.B.See" and adapt the routines to your own style.

"This is sooo good!!! The routines are jaw droppers, the cards are beautifully made and look exactly as they should, the instruction is jam-packed with fantastic info and anyone can learn it in a few minutes. The value here is insane. Kudos to Spidey. This is a home run." Ben Seidman

"Spidey has blended some very clever principles together to create what I think might be one of the greatest new tools for the working mentalist. The cards are cleverly gimmicked with an ingenious system that makes it all work seamlessly. This is a must have for any mentalist!" Richard Sanders

"Spidey has given us the gold standard of mentalism tools. They'll NEVER discover the ingenious secret of these routines. I'll be using these a TON. Highest Recommendation." Joe Diamond

"It never ceases to amaze me just how clever Spidey can be. A.B.See is another in a long line of amazing magic from an amazing person!" Shawn Farquhar

"I love Spidey's creations and his performances are always a delight to see." Shin Lim

"I love tricks that feel like something I'd actually have around my house. What Spidey has done with A.B.See is disguised a devilishly clever method into the most organic and innocent prop imaginable. Such an incredible idea with mountains of potential to get creative and make it your own!" Adam Wilber

"These have allowed me to take some of my favorite card effects and elevate them to more relatable and impactful pieces of mentalism. This method was easy to learn yet can be so powerful/versatile in performance." Blaise Serra

Vince

This is a really great effect that will mesmerize your audience. So nice to have a great product that you can use without regular playing cards. This is very easy to do and can be use in a parlour environment. The explanation is excellent and very easy to follow. Highly recommend. A++++++++

 

Robert

I was very pleased with the various methods clearly described in the accompanying video. A simple yet well disguised method.

 

Erik

Oooos. My last review was actually here mistakenly. It’s actually my thoughts about “Stop It.” Here are my thoughts about “A.B.See:”

Holy Moley! This may be the best thing I’ve purchased from Vanishing Inc.!!! I thought Luke Jeramy’s Marksmen Deck was awesome, and it is. But ABSee needs superlatives that don’t yet exist. (At least in English.). The secret is incredibly clever. Really, if you don’t know it you are not going to see it; once you do, you’ll always see it very easily. And it is so camouflaged that it never looks like you’re hiding anything, because you’re not. You don’t have to.

The different effects you’re taught are really variations on a theme, yet there are subtle differences such that you could do several in sequence without appearing to repeat yourself. Of course, you could repeat yourself if you wanted to because the spectator’s selection will probably be different every time.

Spidey’s teaching and performing styles are really engaging — he makes things look easy without seeming simplistic, and while he really does talk about all the details he never makes you feel ignorant if you don’t know them. The section on false cuts and shuffles is a great example.


Can you tell that I’m impressed? You will be too. That’s a prediction I feel totally confident about!

 

Erik

This is a really great effect that blows people’s minds, and really not hard to do — always a great combination. In fact, the hardest part for me has been the prep and even that shouldn’t have been a problem. When you’re told not to mess around with the deck before watching the tutorial … don’t mess around with the deck before watching to tutorial! I just can’t get my mind around how to get back to the starting point again. (That’s definitely my issue.). That said, the video instructions are clear, and delightfully enthusiast. All in all, another great purchase from Vanishing Inc

 

Jim

This is a great trick for teenagers and adults. I draw my predictions on my business cards. Nice give away.

 

Henrique

Pretty good trick, easy to learn (less than 10 minutes), and the video explanation comes with many different routines with different levels of difficulty. Simply perfect.

 

David

Having got back into doing card tricks again after a long, long time off I'd watched videos by Spidey on YouTube and really appreciated them. So I knew when I saw the trailer for A.B.See that it would be something special and it has surpassed all my expectations. It's really, really clever : never was the phrase "hiding in plain sight" more appropriate! The secret is so easy to learn and the videos are absolutely first class with clear explanations, routines, live performances of different effects along with suggestions for each of the A-Z letters, demonstrations on how to draw the pictures (if you need help) and an ingenious way of handling the problem of somebody wanting to shuffle the cards. People that I've shown some of the tricks to have not been able to work it out (even looking for non-existent markings on the back) and the possibilities are truly endless. This has already become one of my favourite decks of cards. Everybody thinks it's just a genuine pack of flashcards. Without giving the secret away it's so versatile that I was able to adapt one of the cards (in my head) for a more British alternative. I cannot recommend this trick enough. Together with the video tutorials it's well worth the money. You will not be disappointed! Thank you, Spidey!

 

Jim

Very powerful. I made a note pad with my information on it. When I draw there thought, along with a little cold reading, I get great reactions. they usually want my autograph. The picture goes right into their purse.

 

Jeffrey

This is an excellent product and a joy to perform. Well done!

 

Alec

This is a really interesting idea. I love how this provides a meaning behind a photo deck. It seems like a legit deck of flash cards. There's a lot of ways you can present this trick. I love that this can be used as a way to present mentalism to a younger audience.

 

Scott

This is too easy. One of my favorite new things to perform. By adding your own nuances to this, it makes a beautiful presentation that will blow away your spectator. It is so deceptive in nature and the memorization isn't even an issue it's so easy. I never leave home without this. It even comes with a cheat sheet that hides in the open. You get 2 decks! This alone is a whole night of fun.

 

Roger

This utility deck is an absolute Five Star treat! It holds its own at my restaurant/banquet and parlor gigs. The deck works beautifully with children, teens and the most skeptical adults. As mentioned, one can literally learn the deck and put it to work - but for maximum effect, take the time to learn the deck and its handling thoroughly before taking it on the road. I've just ordered a back-up deck and now I'm concerned that one back-up may not be enough! Dang!

 

Laura Bautista

This trick is awesome! It really takes five minutes to learn (maybe 15 minutes if English is not your first language) and the possibilities are endless. In the tutorial you will find several different applications and approaches to give even more dynamism to a deck that is almost perfect. From now on it is an essential for me! Congrats Spidey for such a devastating mentalism tool!

 

Amy

This deck is ridiculous. If you watch the video before it arrives, you can literally perform it right out of the box. It can be used for drawing duplications, One Ahead sorts of stuff, and a lot more than what they teach you. The more you think about how good of an idea this is, the better it gets.

 

Richard

It literally took less than 10 minutes to learn! People are astonished but it is such a simple idea, the performer is even more astonished that nobody even comes close to guessing the secret! I have shown the same person multiple times, and they are amazed each time, they are beginning to believe I really can read minds!

 

Stan R.P.

Spidey has outdid himself this time. Which is not a shock, I just had to say that. This trick is so fresh, it will amaze even the pros!
If you're into mentalism, this deck of flash cards will be a great addition to your bag of go to tricks.
If you only do card tricks this is a wonderful trick to slip into your performance for a change of pace. It is so organic, it will fit in any closeup or walk around effects and you do not have to worry about any angles.
This is an absolutely FANTASTIC trick. Very easy to learn. It is so very simple and awesome to perform. You will get great reactions!!! And you can do it again and again with absolutely no worries about any angles!
Simply amazing! You will amaze an audience from 2 to 102 and get really wonderfully shocked faces.
This can be done one-on-one or a table full eager people!

 

Eitay

Great product with many option to use.

 

Jonathan

It really is a ingenious method. The props are great quality and the instructional videos are thorough and easy to navigate and learn from. You won't regret the purchase.

 

Jeffrey

Amazing trick.

 

Ahmad Hafiz

The best mentalism trick… Suitable for presentation to either a school kid or n adult… Learn it for a couple of minutes and then you can perform it… I’m so excited when received the parcel because I like card trick that use other type of card rather using a regular card deck that I feel so hard to perform in front of people especially kids due the origin of the card deck.. I want it for a long time because I already follow Spidey in youtube and then I bought it during last Black Friday… Thanks Spidey for this best trick and I’m waiting for your next mentalism trick… ??????

 

Ahmed

This is one of the best products and idea executions to ever come out in many years. and will stay like that. I don't do mentalism but still loved it when I picked it up. Once you find out the secret you will love it even more. it is truly clever and practical. many of the tricks he teaches reset themselves as you do it.

The pictures look so innocent but will allow you to do impressive and mind blowing miracles for your spectators. your audience will have no chance of thinking back to how you did the tricks or what the secret must be.

The instructions are perfect, he covers everything and more than you need to get you going including handling hecklers. he even covers how to make a drawing duplication, like literally how to draw each card if you are not good at drawings.

its not just that, you get two sets in your pack. I ordered two of these and will be ordering more. Please never stop printing these.

The only negative I can think of is the cards are made a little cartoony and I understand that this will not fit all styles for performers. I hope they print a version for the serious performer too.

Thank you Spidey. Awesome thinking

 

Kelly

I love the versatility of this effect. Receiving two decks allows you to use these colorful well made and unassuming flash cards to perform many card routines on top of the incredible mentalism effects taught with the download.
Magic with everyday objects always is so mind blowing. A.B.SEE Is a must have.

 

Dustin

Great effect to own.
I almost feel if they gave away the method in the advertising even more people would want it.
Because what it is and what you learn is something that usually takes a great deal of practice to achieve in the card world.
But Spidey teaches this easy method well and it's something that can be mastered in just Minutes.

 

Peter

Absolutely love this. Deceptive, relatively easy and doesn’t ‘look’ like a magic trick. Well made, great instructions, need I go on?

 

Gareth

To be honest, this is a no brainer for any magician or mentalist. Easy to learn and fun to master. Spideys teaching is top class and chock full of information which goes beyond this effect. I have done a video review on Youtube as well.

 

Dan

This is an absolutely amazing trick!

This is a great product. The cards are really nice and the method is so simple to learn. There are so many routines you can do with it. The download content is awesome, Spidey has thought of everything. There are many other parts to the tutorial on top of the actual method and performances and it is all explained extremely well. Something you can carry with you always. A must buy!

 

William

ABSee is as good as everyone says it is! 2 sets of high quality cards and a method that you will never forget. It’s brilliant! The video instructions are very good and the extra handling, tips and techniques included make the trick well worth more than the price I paid. Don’t delay, order today. You won’t be sorry.

 

Philip

This flashcard deck and what you can do with it is truly fantastic. (You get two sets.) It's so simple to master and once you have (using the options of forward or reverse order) it opens a whole world of opportunity to create some extremely impressive mentalist effects. One of the things I absolutely love about it is that the pictures give you the chance to launch into some nice cold reading while the 'trick' of the cards themselves is so easy to understand and remember even idiots like me can do it. This is one of my favourite mentalist purchases of all time. Love it. Love it. Love it. This is money well spent and then some. Couldn't recommend it highly enough. Great.

 

Anthony John

So glad I purchased this product, easy to learn, simple to use, great tuition video, this man has thought of everything. Such a versatile utility pack , good quality cards and totally undetectable. Every Magician needs one of these!!!! Great value for money, go on you know you want one!!!

Mike

Unbelievable. This guy is a genius. This trick is worth a hundred bucks. Just the video, handling etc. is well worth the money. Even if you are not a mentalist, you will be after performing this trick. So many different ways to deliver it. Watch the trailer. It speaks for itself. Amazing. So much thought went into to this. A little memorization and you will look like David Copperfield. (thanks David). You have to own this one. I am in awe. Best 35 dollars you will ever spend. Thank you Vanishing Inc. So glad I go this one.

 

Eric

I picked this up after several recommendations from friends and other raving reviews. They're all right...this is fantastic. The method is something that flies by spectators, and the prop is innocent looking, well made on Bicycle stock, and you get two sets. What more could you ask for? Teaching? That's probably the best part. Spidey spends a significant amount of time with you going over several performance options, subtleties, mentalism in general, and the works. I will certainly give this 5 stars.

Spidey has done it! This pack of “flash cards” suitable for a 2 year old has amazing secrets! Love it!

 

Leon

When I first saw A.B.See by Spidey, I knew that I wanted to order it. But I waited a couple of weeks thinking I might find other items to purchase along with it. Well, “He who hesitates is lost”! When I went to submit my order, it was sold out… everywhere! Then the reviews were glowing! I finally ordered when available after several weeks and I am super glad I did!
It is exactly what I expected… the cards are good quality and disarming for lay persons!
I love the simplicity of the concept and the fact you are not using playing cards for mental revelations. Spidey teaches several effects and as usual he does a great job with details learned from many performances! No slights are required for the basic routines but he also teaches a few easy slights to increase deceptiveness if you want to take advantage. This is definitely worth the cost and I will be using this! Great for audiences of adults and children who can recognize images… not even necessary that they can read. Way 2 go Spidey!

 

Michael

This is clever, easy to learn, and undetectable -- literally. Love it. It's one I can use in a lot of different situations, it solves several problems, and provides alternative approaches to doing some tricks already in my repertoire. Worth your time and investment -- and it takes no time to learn. A rarity.

 

Daryl

I'm a magic appreciator. My skills are minimal (although long term) this trick was favorably reviewed and demonstrated. The beginner level looked to fit my skill level and I took a chance. The mechanics were simple but took a some focused work to get the basics down. Spidey did a great job with the instructions and added much more to help the performance. The effect is impressive and I feel with more practice and the more complex routines build off the ones before. So, for beginners and advanced laymen, I recommend this item.

 

Bryan

This is amazing. Simplicity is genius and this will allow you to focus on your presentation to give hard hitting effects that will have people talking about.

 

Raghav

Having seen it in performance by Spidey almost 1 year before it's release, I knew this product would be awesome and it is. Love when the props are organic which audience can directly relate to. Also the method is really deceptive and easy. Great utility item for mentalists to have with them. The instructional video is around 2hrs long and is filled with gems including subtleties, techniques, justifications, multiple live performances etc. Also the FB group created by Spidey is amazing. Has a great community coming up with ideas and Spidey himself has shared so many killer routines there.

 

Mark

I would place this utility in my top ten for the year. It’s brilliant!

 

Erica

the reason this isn't five stars is because the case broke quickly. but besides that, it is awesome!

 

Michael

I have a mixed reaction to this trick. On the positive side, the deck is very nicely made, comes with a duplicate deck, has a diabolically clever marking system, and the teaching is excellent, including very good tips on false shuffles, peeks, etc. The big negative – and this may be due to my deficiencies as a performer – is that this seems more like a puzzle than a trick. The few times I have performed this, even when using presentations offered on the video, the reactions have been “How did you guess my card?” There’s a lot to like here, so maybe a new/different presentation will work for me.

 

Jonathan

I'll use this eventually. Good concept.
