Hellstromism
About this book
Robert A. Nelson's authoritative treatise on the life and sensational mind reading feats of Axel Hellstrom, a German muscle reader, mentalist and stage magician who redefined the art of muscle reading.
Hellstrom was a man who baffled many of the brightest scientific and magical minds of his time by singlehandedly taking this ability to incredible, new heights—so much so, in fact, that for many magicians his name remains synonymous with "Contact" and "Non-Contact" Mind Reading—"Hellstromism!"
Nelson, the long-time professional mentalist and mentalism/magic dealer, was personally coached by Hellstrom before the celebrated mind reader's death.
In this book, he painstakingly explains the inner workings of Hellstrom's miracles. Every phase is covered in detail: from choosing and working with subjects to suggested performance routines.
You will learn everything you need to know to begin developing your own abilities, as well as what is required to take your performance to the next level.
A truly informative and fascinating read, written by an expert who was sincere and passionate about the possibilities "Hellstromism" has to offer.
Originally published 1935, this edition contains the author's additional chapter titled "Later day experiments in Hellstromism, " dated April 15, 1941.
