Bleeding Heart
by Keith Lack

Just in time for Valentines Day! Put a surprise at the end of your Four Ace Assemble with the "Bleeding Heart". Using your favorite ace assembly or the one I provide in the instructions and with deck in hand, you tell the story of the four major loves of your life. At each love mentioned, an ace is produced in an astonishing manner. At the end, you reveal the last card to be the Ace of Hearts representing the one true love of your life. You tell how you went to a school dance and lost touch soon after. All that you have to remember her by is the brass safety pin she used to pin a rose to your lapel with. The pin is produced and handed out for inspection. The pin is opened by the spectator and inserted into the center heart pip on the card. "Little did I know that she would break my heart in the end". Once the pin is pulled back out, the heart starts to bleed. The card is immediately turned over and handed out for examination.

A very strong handling combined with an entertaining routine makes this a real reputation maker. Easy to do. Comes with all you need to do this effect immediately and how to easily make ultra realistic blood at home when you run out. This is the good blood like you get in the kit. This recipe is worth the price of this effect alone and has been used in Hollywood for years. You will also receive full color instructions with a few alternate routines. Like

"VOODOO KING"- A demonstration in Voodoo using a King of Spades.

"STIGMATA"- Use this technique to cause pictures to bleed stigmata like streams of blood.

"Sweet Photo Syrup-rise"- Poke a photo of a can of chocolate syrup only to have real syrup leak out. Immediately hand the photo out for a taste test and inspection. The syrup appears to have come from nowhere. Very easy to do.

The method has lots of potential. You will come up with many ideas of your own.
