The Dark Waltz by Michael J. Fraughton.

Description

Michael J. Fraughton’s material has been difficult to find—until now. For many years The Dark Waltz, a text on the fine art of Bizarre Magic, has rested within the ownership of L&L Publishing. Now, it is available at last. Within its pages you will find many of Michael’s signature routines like ‘The Dorian Hand of Glory’ and ‘The Phantom Violinist’.

It has taken time, but at last Michael has opened his world to you. Welcome to the dark side of illusion.

Michael J. Fraughton is being recognized as one of the foremost up and coming Bizarre magicians. This is his full show, along with thoughts and ideas. Assistance, contributions, and ideas came form men such as Jeff McBride, Christian Chelman, Mark Edwards, and Eugene Burger. Jeff McBride wrote the introduction.
