Effect – The performer displays seven illustrated cards – six of which display cobwebs and one a cheeky spider. One of the cobweb cards is placed aside, face down on the table, (or even in a spectator’s pocket.)

The spider card is now reversed face down. Another web card is also reversed in the fan of six cards. A spectator is asked to point to the spider card. But when reversed it proves to be a web card which is placed aside. Another web card is reversed, and again spectator asked to point to the spider card. Once again he is wrong.

This is repeated again, leaving you with two face-up web cards, and one face-down spider card. But when the face down card is reversed, it is another web – where has the spider gone ?

The web card originally placed aside is now reversed – and there is the spider, nesting in his web !
