Rosie’s Button By Lewis Le Val

Mentalists are scrambling to find truly terrifying material that goes beyond the usual effects. How can you captivate your audience with something that makes their skin crawl long after the show is over?

Enter ‘Rosie’s Button’ by Lewis Le Val. This unique routine lets you turn a simple clothing button into a haunted relic, channeling the eerie spirit of Rosie, a cursed doll from a twisted urban legend. With a story that taps into deep psychological horror and the use of a simple, self-working principle, this performance will have your audience questioning reality and fearing what might

linger in their minds after the show.

Rosie’s Button allows you to craft a haunting, 5-minute close-up act, or even a 20-minute parlour piece that feels so real, your audience will swear they can feel Rosie’s presence. It’s minimalistic, spine-chilling, and guaranteed to stand out.

You’ll receive:

• A detailed, well-crafted script designed to deliver maximum psychological horror. This script utilises the horror of contagion, making the haunting seem inescapable as it infects the audience’s thoughts, long after the performance is over.

• A clever script variation that’ll almost certainly send chills down your audience’s spine.

• A thorough explanation of the method and why it feels so real.

• A variety of subtleties to enhance the haunting, with techniques like introducing blank spots in memory, guiding participants to feel a personal connection to Rosie, and presenting props like a simple button in a way that feels truly haunted.

• A series of suggestions and ideas to extend your performance, along with alternative themes and approaches that open the door to even more possibilities.

Rosie’s Button is designed for both intimate close-up performances and larger parlour settings. It is minimalist yet rich with atmosphere, allowing you to create a haunting moment with a lasting impact.

With Rosie’s Button, you’re not just learning a routine, you’re mastering the art of psychological horror, turning a simple prop into a terrifyingly believable experience.
