About Me



I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

I am the Vampyre Magician, an Events and Nightclub Promoter, New York City Historian, Escape Artist, Fire-Eater, and he who rules over the Bizarre Magical World of Magnus!
Enter the realm of feats that are inexplicable, unexplainable, enigmatic, and just plain weird.
A cascade of alchemikal conundrums!
A phantasmagoric Orgy of Cabalistic Conjuration!
A bewildering bafflement of uncanny dimensionality!
Strange And Supernatural Forces Twist And Possess my hands as I manipulate Ordinary Cards!
"The magic of drama is infinitely more powerful than the magic of trickery. It is as available to the conjurer as it is to the actor. The only difference is that actors take it for granted, whereas few conjurers are even aware that it exists."--HENNING NELMS, Magic and Showmanship
