Harold's interest in hypnosis began at the age of six when his first grade teacher stated that he must have been in a trance when she explained how to do math. His interest remained dormant for forty years until he witnessed a stage show at a local fair. The performer on stage produced a trance in the show's volunteers and suggested they act like first graders. Although he still can't perform the math calculations he embarked on a five year study with America's top performers to produce hypnotic entertainment.

Harold's performances are rated family appropriate! His clients can be assured that the show theme and content will provide top notch entertainment, and not embarrass their guests. Whether you choose to join Harold on stage and experience a hypnotic trance or watch the magic from the audience, it will be a night to remember.
