Peter Turner has been one of the biggest catalysts for ushering in the new era of mentalism, as well as its accompanying surge in popularity. While most modern audiences recognize there is no such thing as “real” mind reading, you’d never believe that when watching Peter perform.

His ability to produce consistently devastating results is no accident and he’ll be sharing his most valuable secrets for mentalists and magicians as part of this can’t-miss Vanishing Inc.
