Dark Magic and Mind Reading Inside a Hidden Speakeasy
Ghost Stories Las Vegas places psychological illusionist Kent Axell inside the secluded surroundings of 1923 Prohibition Bar for an intimate evening of mind reading, dark magic, storytelling, suspense, and audience interaction.
The production is not a large casino illusion spectacular. Axell performs in a small room where guests can observe his expressions, movements, props, and seemingly impossible revelations from close range.
Haunting stories and psychological demonstrations create the mood, but the show also uses humor and personality to keep the experience entertaining rather than presenting a conventional haunted attraction or horror maze.
Adults comparing mentalists and other Las Vegas magic show deals may appreciate the private parlor atmosphere, included cocktail, limited seating, audience involvement, and location inside The Shoppes at Mandalay Place.

What to Expect at Ghost Stories

Ghost Stories combines elements of a theatrical monologue, psychological experiment, magic show, and private séance-style presentation. The smaller room allows Axell to build suspense slowly and involve guests without the distance of a traditional casino showroom.
- Psychological illusion: Axell uses observation, suggestion, misdirection, theatrical techniques, and mentalism to create seemingly impossible revelations.
- Mind-reading demonstrations: Guests may be asked to think of information, make private choices, or participate in experiments designed to test perception.
- Dark storytelling: Haunting narratives connect individual routines and give the performance a more cohesive atmosphere than unrelated magic tricks.
- Audience participation: Some guests may answer questions, make decisions, handle objects, write information, or become central to an effect.
- Close-range performance: The intimate room places the audience near Axell, making the unexplained moments feel more immediate.
- Humor between tense moments: Axell uses comic timing and conversation to release tension and keep the production entertaining.
- Speakeasy atmosphere: Dim lighting, vintage furnishings, bourbon, hidden-room styling, and the Prohibition-era theme support the show’s mysterious tone.
- Included cocktail: Current admission includes a handcrafted drink, and additional cocktails can be ordered during the experience.
Reserve your preferred Ghost Stories performance before the intimate room sells out.
