The Magic

<b><i>“TERRIFYING.”</i></b><br> — Johann Hari, bestselling author of <i>Chasing the Scream</i><br><br> <b>Do exactly as it says—and it will terrify you.</b><br><br> <i>The Magic</i> is not a story you simply read. It is an experience in which <i>you</i> become the central character.<br><br> First, you must be alone.<br><br> Then you must close the door, darken the room and follow a few simple instructions. It may feel strange. You may even feel ridiculous. But if you want the magic to work, you have to trust the voice on the page.<br><br> And once you begin, you may wish you had never invited it into your home.<br><br> Short, chilling and uniquely interactive, Andrew Hannon’s cult horror phenomenon reached number one on the iTunes Horror chart in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia. It inspired a YouTube craze whose related videos attracted more than 20 million views—and became so controversial that the book was banned in Italy.<br><br> There is only one rule: <b>follow every instruction exactly.</b><br><br> Just make sure you really are alone.<br><br> <b><i>“Andrew Hannon... the premier writer of horror stories.”</i></b><br> — Duncan Bannatyne, BBC’s <i>Dragons’ Den</i>
