Mystery Hole by Katsuya Masuda - Trick

An Impressive Illusion Gimmick For Tabletop Performances

Illusion tricks are an impressive part of many a performing magician’s routine. They are particularly popular for close up performances and small crowds. This particular Mystery Hole gimmick plays particularly well for tabletop performances where you draw a handful of people in to watch a short act.

At the start of the effect, you show the spectators a picture of a wine bottle and a wine glass. You then show a piece of black paper and a simple hole punch. You punch a hole in the paper, then pick up the small circular piece from the punch. You explain to the spectators that it looks like a real hole when it is placed on the photograph.

With a few dramatic gestures, you drop the tiny circle and it mystically begins to move by itself. You then wave your finger under the photo to reveal that the small piece of paper has somehow transformed into a real hole! The spectators can even see your finger through the hole! You can even drag the hole to the edge of the picture and somehow pick it off.
