720: Krystyn Lambert - Interview with a Witch

Some of you may remember Krystyn Lambert from performing as a Junior in some magic competitions, or her movies such as “Desperate Acts of Magic” or “Make Believe” or her appearances on TV shows shows like “Penn & Teller Fool Us” or “Masters of Illusion.” As an adult she has performed with Criss Angel in “The Supernaturalists” road tour and more recently she has been performing at the Chicago Magic Lounge and Mystique nightclubs. She recently completed a run at the Stanley Hotel in Colorado with her seance act.

This has all been a journey for Krystyn which has led her to where she is today. Oh, and did I mention that she is a witch?

In this week’s episode, Krystyn talks about what’s important in her life like horror movies, philosophical thought, her work with Criss Angel, character development and her transition into embracing and becoming a witch. A perfect Halloween holiday episode.

583: Aiden SInclair - Illusions of the Passed

This Halloween season we travel to Colorado to visit the “Stanley Hotel” where resident magician and medium (at large), Aiden Sinclair presents bizarre magic with a decided twist. You may recognize the Stanley Hotel as being the inspiration for Stephen King to write “The Shining” that was later produced into a blockbuster movie. Not only does Aiden perform his “Illusions of the Passed” (yes, that is spelled correctly) at the Stanley, but he also presents seances at the haunted Winchester House and aboard the equally possessed Queen Mary. These venues provide the perfect backdrop for the spooky performances presented by this “reformed” magician. And by “reformed” I mean…well, you will have to listen to this week’s episode.

Welcome to Illusions of the Passed! A Theatrical Seance at the Historic Stanley Hotel. Join master Illusionist Aiden Sinclair for an evening of mystery entertainment!

Aiden Sinclair performs an impromptu show for an unsuspecting audience in the lobby of the Stanley Hotel.

Master magician Aiden Sinclair stops by the KCAL9 studio to discus the new show aboard the Queen Mary called "Illusions of the Past, Legends of the Queen Mary" and gives KCAL9 anchor a Halloween surprise she'll never forget!

This week Aiden Sinclair shares the incredible story of his journey from the life of a true con man, his incarceration and rehabilitation as he entered the world of bizarre magic. It was a back-story shared on “America’s Got Talent” [sic] that, along with his talents and magical skills, led him to progress rather far along the path to the finals.
