A Dramatic Centerpiece for Your Show

Build anticipation, deliver a startling crash, and leave your audience wondering how an impossible escape just happened. The Guillotine Illusion by Ronjo brings an imposing presence to stage magic shows, theatrical productions, and Halloween attractions.

The Effect

A spectator appears secured in the stocks, with carrots positioned above and below their head. The audience watches as suspense builds. Suddenly, the blade drops with a loud crash. The carrots are sliced, the blade appears below the spectator's neck, and the spectator is released unharmed.

Built for Performance and Transport

Basswood construction and stainless steel blades give this illusion its distinctive appearance. Folding components and removable legs make moving and storing the apparatus more practical between performances.

• Real rubber wheels help move the unit through parking lots, backstage areas, and on and off the stage.
• The main unit folds in half for transport.
• The wheeled legs detach by removing one wing nut on each side.
• With the legs removed, the unit folds completely flat for storage.

Dimensions and Fit

The listed body width is 18 3/16 inches, with a thickness of 3 1/2 inches. The legs are 20 inches long, and the neck opening is listed as 5 1/2 inches in diameter. Please contact Ronjo to confirm the overall height, participant fit, and transport clearance before ordering.
