After nearly 15 years, Luke Dancy returns with SPECTRA, a bold modern evolution of the classic Chicago Opener (also known as Red Hot Mama).

The spectator begins by naming a color—not just red or blue, but any color they can imagine. Next, they freely choose a card from the deck. Without any suspicious movements, the back of the card they just chose appears to have changed to the exact color they named. It is set aside as an impossible moment of personalized magic. But it doesn’t end there.

A second card is now selected. When the magician turns over the strangely-backed card that has been in plain sight the entire time, it is no longer the original choice; it has now changed into the second card they just chose.

No rigged decks.
No difficult sleight of hand or palming.
Just pure, direct magic that feels as fair as it looks.

Start clean. End clean.
Adaptable, practical, and visually stunning.

What’s included:

• Handmade SPECTRA gimmicks for both red and blue Bicycle decks
