Complete Book Of Shadows by Michael Diamond

get it here
About 2 years ago, Michael Diamond and I started talking about properly publishing his previously self published works, Book of Shadows 1 and 2. Well, this and that got in his way, then my way, and it has been a long journey to get here, but now, in one perfect bound volume (With a special twist we talk about at the end) including several never before published added bonus routines, we are proud to release Michael Diamond's Complete Book Of Shadows.

Here is a peek at the table of contents:

Return of the Highgate vampire - The performer spins a tale with remarkable results of vampire hunting, blood ritual and more. Fire, Blood and flying coffin pieces... who could ask for anything more!

Ignis fatuus - Tarot! cards become the catalyst for a flashy finale.

The Resurrection ofGgustav Von Shreck - A ritual ends with the performer transformed perhaps into some kind of MONSTER!

The Ghost Trap - A Druid's Bottle and a friendly chat with a long trapped spirit. And finally, a release for the suspended soul.

Santa Sangre - Inspired by a film of the same title, this routine involves Santeria and an animate disembodied arm. An unusual piece that could be done in the parlor OR stage.

The Curse of the Monkey's Skull - An old ghost story comes to life as a couple wishes upon a Monkey's Skull. As with many such stories, the end may not be what is expected and the couple makes a safe decision with startling results.

Hoodoo Voodoo' - A Voodoo doll and two volunteers to become Witch Doctor and victim. But where to stick the pin... Ah that is a question but the performer new the answer even before the volunteers were chosen.

The Faces of Death - The performer sho! ws his personal collection of mortuary pictures (And who amongst us doesn't have one of those) - a spectator selects one and interestingly enough the method of death HAPPENS in front of our eyes.

The Oracle - A Human skull is the focus of this spooky tale (And again- who amongst us doesn't have one of these...) and it finally shares that which we wish to know in a smoky message left within its display case.

The Philosopher's Stone - With the help of an age old alchemist, the performer succeeds in transforming a stone into Gold! Old Moldy-Mort would be proud as you walk in the footsteps of that Kid from the books and unleash the secrets of the philosopher's stone..

Jack's Back! The ripper that is... For a change we examine not the victims, but the SUSPECTS! But silly it is to conjure such a spirit. Jack leaves a ghostly message for all to see in his bloody wake!

13 After Midnight - Discussion of a saance and some brilliant subtleties Michael performed at ! the Corbett Arms Hotel for their Ghost Weekends! Some great ideas herein!

The Telling Bone - A Deck of Tarot cards, a square of wood and a long ancestral bone take the spectator into a world of evil.

Visions Of Life And Death - A wonderful Living and Dead test, wherein a SPECTATOR becomes the medium. As they gaze into a crystal ball, they are able to reveal the name among many that is that of someone deceased! Very good handling and an interesting theme I don't think has been explored before.

Psycho-Chopper - Blood guts and a wrist chopper.... need I say more'
