With Special Introduction from Rob Zabrecky, Two Time Stage Magician of the Year and Resident Séance Specialist for the Magic Castle.
Kick off the evening with Rob Zabrecky’s 10–15 minute introduction to the origins of séances and the 1800s spiritualist craze, brought to life with spellbinding magic effects!
Rob Zabrecky is a Los Angeles-born magician, actor, author, lecturer, and musician known for his darkly comedic and theatrical style. LA Weekly once called him “one of LA’s most interesting natives,” and his work spans television, film, stage, lecture halls, and the page.
His 2019 memoir, Strange Cures (Rothco Press), captures his coming-of-age in ’70s–’90s Los Angeles. The LA Times called it “a punk poem to a forgotten Los Angeles.”
A celebrated magician, Zabrecky has performed worldwide and earned seven Academy of Magical Arts awards. For 17 years, he’s hosted séances at the Magic Castle’s Houdini Séance Room, blending eerie storytelling with sleight of hand as a theatrical spirit medium.
On screen, he’s appeared in A Ghost Story, A Desert, Lost River, and Strange Angel. In the ’90s, he fronted the indie band Possum Dixon, who released three albums on Interscope Records, and left a lasting mark on the LA music scene.
