Happy Halloween! 🎃

Psycho is one of the greatest thrillers of all time, but a founding father of The Magic circle coined the phrase many years before Alfred Hitchcock did.

In 1875, Maskelyne, often referred to as The Chief, caused a sensation in London's West End when he premiered PSYCHO, a thrilling automaton who could play and win at a game of cards.

Hoping you get lots of 'tricks' and treats this Halloween! 👻
