The Polaroid by Jamie Daws
âIn 1974, America was gripped by the story of âThe Polaroid Disappearancesâ. One by one, 20 people across America, seemingly vanished. All their loved ones discovered was a polaroid of the missing person on their doorstepâŠâ
A stack of polaroid photos is introduced as well as an old newspaper clipping. Three spectators are invited to take part in uncovering this mystery and the first spectator is handed the photos, being mindful to obscure everyone elseâs view. With a roll of some imaginary dice, they randomly arrive at a polaroid's and remember the person they see.
The stack is passed to a second spectator who once again selects another random polaroid before handing the stack to a final spectator. The third spectator arrives at a final polaroid which is then placed upon their hand face down.
âThe interesting thing is, all of these people appeared again but with absolutely no memory of what happened to them. All except 3⊠One particular person believed that they saw someone else in the room with them and that he watched her being murdered. They also reportedly remember who it was who killed her. Only one of these people wasnât seen again, only one of these people truly disappeared. As more evidence was discovered, it transpired that the murderer was abducting random individuals and performing a âholy blessingâ on them using various narcotic substances. If the blessing was successful, it meanât that the individual was worthy of life and he would put them back where he found them. If not, he would cleanse them of their sins by killing themâ
As this is said, a newspaper article is pulled out and it is explained that the witness who came forward was named Clementine. The first spectator confirms that was the name of the person he saw in the polaroid.
The second spectator is told that he too has seen the murderer and is asked for the name of the person he saw. He replies George. When the newspaper clipping is opened, George is found to be the murderer.
But what about the missing lady? The third spectator, still with his polaroid on his hand names who it was he saw. Meredith.
âThat is strange, Clementineâs report of a woman being killed were never substantiated. The police just presumed that the drugs she was administered made her hallucinate. There was no polaroid of a âMeredithâ ever found nor were there any reports of a Meredith going missingâŠâ
The final polaroid on the spectators hand is turned over and Meredith is seen to have vanished entirely from the photo. Almost as if it was imagined.
âThe Polaroidâ is a killer 3 phase routine designed for a small group of people. It uses multiple spectators and the ingenious method employed means the selection process is completely hands off! As soon as the polaroids are handed to the first spectator, the performer doesnât have to do a thing until they places that final polaroid in the spectators hand.
Nothing is stolen away or added
No memory work
Nothing that can break
Made for multiple spectators
Ingenious method that will make you smile!
Comes with 20 specially designed polaroids on gorgeous thick card-stock and a newspaper clipping
BONUS: As a bonus, you get a handling of 'The Polaroid' that can be achieved with a normal deck of cards. 'Know, Known and the Unknown' allows you to have 3 cards selected in a ridiculously fair way. You will be able to revel the first selection, have the second selection pre-predicted and then wipe the final selection from the memory of the final spectator.
