7 Mysteries by Simon

What if your next routine wasn't just amazing - but unforgettable?

7 Mysteries is more than a collection of effects. It's a carefully curated guide to modern mentalism that blends simplicity, elegance, and impossibility in equal measure.

Inside, you won't find recycled plots or overcomplicated gimmicks.

Instead, you'll discover performances that feel intuitive... real... and at times, even dangerous.

Each mystery was crafted with one goal in mind: To make your audience forget they're watching a trick - and begin to believe in something greater. Eliciting gasps, silence, or nervous laughter... depending on how deep you want to go.

Not every mystery is meant to be solved. Some are meant to be performed. And whether you're performing on stage, in a corporate setting, or in an intimate close-up moment, these effects will elevate your magic with astonishing clarity and emotional impact.

If you're ready to leave behind the ordinary and step into something truly unforgettable...

Welcome to 7 Mysteries

Routines:

Devil's Nail

A row of identical paper cups is laid out on the table. Beneath one of them, a deadly sharp nail stands upright - freely placed by the spectator while you're facing away the entire time. The spectator mixes everything. You remain unaware. And yet, with chilling confidence, you begin slamming your hand onto the cups, one by one... always avoiding the nail. Until only one cup remains. You turn around - and there it is: the real danger, exactly where your hand should never be.

No electronics

No external help
Devil's Nail - Pure intuition. Real danger. Magic that takes your breath away.

Bottle Cap Edition

No danger. No pain. Just pure mind-reading.

Five ordinary bottle caps are placed on the table. A spectator signs a coin (or any small object) and hides it under one of the caps - all while you're turned away. They mix everything. You never touch a thing.

Still, when you turn back, you instantly know where the signed coin is hidden.
No electronics
No magnets
No contact
Set-up in seconds
Everything can be borrowed. The method is nearly invisible.

The result feels like real intuition.

A clean, safe and razor-sharp demonstration of psychological precision.

Virtual Calendar

With nothing but your phone's photo gallery, you reveal the exact date (day and month) your spectator was born - or the birthday of someone important to them.

There's no writing, no fishing, and no apps. It's completely self-working, uses your real gallery, and can be done in seconds.

Also included is a powerful prediction variation:

The spectator thinks of any date while browsing your gallery. You ask them to turn over the phone - and there's a note clearly written in advance with the exact date they had in mind.

Fast, clean, and impossible.

Virtual Calendar is casual mentalism at its finest - hiding real impact behind a natural, everyday interaction.

Imaginary Friend

What if a thought could become real?

A spectator envisions an imaginary companion - someone who exists only in their mind - and silently gives them a name. With your back turned, you begin to interact with this invisible presence, responding to answers only you seem to perceive.

Then, the impossible happens: you reveal the exact name they had imagined for this friend.

But it doesn't end there. The connection grows so vivid, the audience begins to feel it too - as if the imaginary friend isn't so imaginary anymore.

A surreal moment of shared illusion... that feels anything but imaginary.

Pocket, Hand, Table

Three everyday objects are placed under the table. Your spectator is given a completely free choice: one object goes in their pocket, one stays in their hands, and one is left on the table.

They can change their mind at any moment - even at the very last second. And yet, when you reveal your prediction, it perfectly matches their final decisions.
No forces
No ambiguity
Just a clean, impossible moment that feels truly destined.
True Detective

A group of spectators is invited on stage. With your back turned the entire time, one of them selects 6 random cards from a shuffled deck - 5 black cards and 1 red. The cards are mixed and distributed at random among the participants.

Without seeing a thing, you begin your mental investigation... With uncanny accuracy, you identify exactly who is holding the red card.

But just when they think it's over, you go one step further - revealing the exact suit and value of the selected card.

You do NOT touch the cards or the deck at any point.

A classic plot. A sharp twist.

This is deduction at its finest - a moment that makes you look like the real-life Sherlock Holmes.

Sticky Insight

A peek system like you've never seen before... Simple, direct, and unbelievably effective.

This method allows the mentalist to obtain written information in a way that's clean, invisible, and absolutely undetectable.

It's one of those secrets that feels invisible - even to the most observant eyes. Perfect for the modern mentalist who values subtlety and power.

Best of all? The spectator does all the work - and you still walk away with their thoughts.

Haunted Call They think of someone who has passed away... and the phone rings. Without saying a word, the spectator focuses on a deceased person. Suddenly, your phone vibrates. A call comes in - and on the screen, the exact name of the person they were thinking of appears.

This call can be answered.

And no, this is not a prank.

Haunted Call is more than a trick.

It's an impossible, unsettling, and unforgettable experience.

Warning: This effect is not recommended for emotionally sensitive audiences or in contexts where the theme of death may cause real discomfort.

Use responsibly, as the psychological impact is genuine - and the mystery, profound. The kind of effect that only those who own this book will know... and never forget.

Bonus - Living Person

Imagine the spectator simply thinking of someone, without saying a word, writing anything, using anagrams, forces, or traditional techniques.

Then, suddenly, you receive a call - and who is on the other end? It's the exact person the spectator was thinking of! Nothing is said, nothing is written, and the connection feels otherworldly.

If the idea of this effect already fascinated you, you'll fall even more in love with this unique version.

It's a pure mentalism experience, without any obvious tricks, where the impossible becomes real.

As you could see, 7 Mysteries isn't just a book about mentalism. It's a collection of carefully crafted experiences designed to feel impossible - and yet, fully within your reach.

These effects were created for real-world use: on stage, in close-up, in impromptu settings, or in the most important show of your career.

No complicated sleights or rigid methods.

Just direct, clean, powerful magic - designed to connect with both the mind and the heart of your audience. If even one of these effects makes it into your repertoire - and it will - the book has done its job. But truthfully? You'll want to use them all.
