Add some glasses and a robe, and you'll have your own mini Harry Potter, Hermione or Ron and Hogwarts.

The Magnetic Hand
Learn how to perform the Magnetic Hand. In this mysterious and visual trick, you somehow cause several playing cards to adhere to your hand as if it were a magnet. This one takes some preparation ahead of time, but the results are well worth it.

The Magnetic Pencil 2
