I won’t tell you right away. Go back to the page and write down the names of ALL the cards. Compare with new cards.

#3

All of the cards are gone the second time around. They look similar, but they are different suits/off by one.

Cute though.

Thank you.

Note to self: Have coffee prior to reading email.

This same card trick is an old subject, fooled alot of people. But it was fun.

#6

Snopes says the same thing.

Last year one of my roommates was actually scared of this. Although not quite a fundie, she had an aversion to things she deemed “satanic.” That included this card game (the particular version she found had a pentagram, flames, etc.). She forwarded the link to me, and I was able to placate her rather quickly.

A Satanic card trick??? :eek:

I wonder what your friend thinks of David Copperfield. Or Penn & Teller, even.
