Occult Illusionist David Alnwick expands on his TEDx talk ‘Why Magic Should Frighten You’ by exploring the connection between ancient sorcery and modern magicians.

David Alnwick has performed sold-out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for a decade. A pioneer of ‘Immersive Narrative Magic,’ Alnwick’s touring shows include ‘Necromancer,’ ‘Nightmare Magic,’ and ‘The Mystery of Dracula.’ He’s headlined Horror Con Uk and remains the only magician asked to present his work to the Recreational Fear Lab in Denmark for study.

‘The Darker Side of Magic’ – NowThen Magazine

‘Alnwick has reached a point in his career where he could coast on the formidable skill set that earned him his reputation and probably still cause daily stampedes for a spot in his shows…  Instead he has chosen to innovate, pushing his own boundaries and the boundaries of magic as a genre.’
★★★★★ – World Magic Review

‘Really well done… thoroughly enjoyed it… Really impressive work’ – Andy Nyman (Derren Brown’s director and writer of West-End hit ‘Ghost Stories’)

“…the magic does not feel forced, but is an essential element of the narrative… a perfectly constructed and flawlessly performed magic show”
