I ll have to revisit this after I ve learned the marking system and routines and so forth, but I just wanted to let everyone know that this is a superior production, and well worth the price. One of the envelopes is even left blank so you can add your own images or drawings to the envelope either printed or freehand to customise After Dark for yourself.

I am posting to let you all know about my new release "After Dark".

About 4 years ago I had the pleasure of being asked to present my handling for "Dark Arts" by Matt Mello which many of you know to be an incredible creation by Matt and one of my favourite go to peeks of information written by a spectator on a hidden business card.

Over the past 4 years I have been working on a new envelope. One that allows you to achieve the same peek but with a single envelope. The envelope can be shown to the spectator not only on the outside but also on the inside as being solid and opaque both before and after the effect.

I am very proud of this release and believe it to be one of my best to date. The envelope is a worker, easy to do, instantly resets and is customizable for your own performance style and presentations.

Love to know what you think.

I while back I purchased Dark ARts. As soon as I saw this available I purchashed it as well. Dark Arts is terrific. I like that it comes with a pdf with all of the necessary graphics. I will watch it a bit later. I know it will be jsut as good if not better than Dark ARts.

It's Dark Arts amped up a little bit. The envelope can be opened and shown on the inside. The spectator can remove the cards from the inside. They can look in and see nothing amiss. It's a very clever advancement of the Dark Arts principal. The PDF's are provided so that you can make up the envelopes. And it also gives away to construct the envelopes using standard coin envelopes. It's a neat idea.

I really liked Dark Arts a lot so I will probably check out Matt's improved version as well.
Over the last couple years I have changed and modified the envelope as well so maybe it is a similar idea, but I'm sure this is likely better than what I came up with.
But I almost always like the Matt's (Mello & Johnson) so I'm confident there is some good ideas in there.

If you liked Dark Arts, you're going to love After Dark. This is a definite improvement with proper recognition to Matt. MJ knocked this one out of the Park.

"The New York Papers," Mark Twain once said,"have long known that no large question is ever really settled until I have been consulted; it is the way they feel about it, and they show it by always sending to me when they get uneasy. "

I love and use Dark Arts and already own Matts download on it.
Not that that's a big deal for me (it wasn't for the original Dark Arts), but was curious if this version could be freely handled by the spectator.

Short answer is no. Bu they will feel like they did at the end.

You have to make your own envelope? Or,can you put the work into a regular envelope?

You can do either with some minor variance.

Thanks for the reviews guys, so glad you are enjoying this

I believe Dark Arts by Matt Mello is great, let me say that right off the bat. I could not have developed After Dark without his creative thinking and ingenious work. That being said I believe I have made it better and I know when you get this you are going to think so too. Matt Mello is a legend I am simply standing tall on his shoulders and with his full permission

After Dark is quite different to Dark Arts, it is in my opinion, a major step forward in the brilliant concept Matt created. The envelope can be looked at closely both on the outside and the inside by the spectator which was not possible with the original, even with my added handling. This is a single envelope. The spectator can even put their fingers in the envelope and wiggle them around if they want to get that close. It is a solid envelope.

Even with all examination before the card is placed in the envelope the After Dark envelope will still give you an unobstructed view of the contents of the envelope. I cannot say anymore than that without tipping the method. I am really proud of the method. While simple it took quite a while to develop and get just right. The method is ingenious and one of those "That's really cool" moments.

To answer Jerskins question. You can make your own envelopes as I suggest in the download and I give you templates for 4 different envelopes to cover all manner of mentalism routines. One of the envelopes is even left blank so you can add your own images or drawings to the envelope (either printed or freehand) to customise After Dark for yourself. I also go into great detail to show you how to put the work into a regular envelope too, so you have both options.

The envelope template I provide is all made from one piece. That is to say the After Dark envelope is not made up of multiple pieces that could come apart in performance. It is strong and when you construct it will last. The envelopes design to make it out of one piece took me some time to figure out and get just right.

I hope all of this helps.

It appears those in Europe are having trouble locating the envelopes used in Dark Arts. I am sorry to hear this so I am happy to offer you (what I believe to be) a practical solution.

Reviews for "Witchcraft and Whiskers: The Feline Residents of the Dark Magic Cafe"

1. Amy Johnson - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with my experience at Dark Magic Cafe. First of all, the atmosphere was nothing like what I expected from a place that claims to specialize in dark magic. It was just a dimly lit coffee shop with some generic decorations. Secondly, the service was incredibly slow. It took forever for our drinks to arrive, and when they did, they were lukewarm and tasted mediocre at best. I don't think I'll be returning to this place anytime soon.

2. Mark Thompson - 1 star - I had heard so many great things about Dark Magic Cafe, but unfortunately, it fell far short of my expectations. The menu was extremely limited, with only a handful of drinks and snacks to choose from. The prices were also quite high for what you get. On top of that, the staff seemed uninterested and unfriendly. Overall, it was a very underwhelming experience and I would not recommend it to others.

3. Sarah Evans - 2 stars - The concept of Dark Magic Cafe intrigued me, but the execution was not impressive. The drinks lacked flavor and were overpriced considering their quality. The seating arrangement was uncomfortable and it felt cramped inside the cafe. Additionally, the staff seemed disorganized and unenthusiastic about their job. I was hoping for a unique and magical experience, but unfortunately, Dark Magic Cafe did not deliver.

4. John Martinez - 2 stars - Dark Magic Cafe was a letdown for me. The ambiance was nothing special, just some dim lighting and a few fake potions on the shelves. The coffee tasted average and the pastries were stale. It seems like the cafe tries too hard to create an image but falls short on actual quality. I was expecting an enchanting and mystical experience, but it was far from it. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone looking for a magical coffee experience.
