Description of Bicycle Ghost Deck Playing Cards by EllusionistDesigned by Ellusionist, the Bicycle Ghost Deck has a sweet finish, high grade stock, and an amazing design.
Five solid months of design work went into the Ghost Deck. It maintains the general Bicycle look & feel and is in fact a normal playing card deck, but adds incredible touches that the red and blue decks lack.

Customer Review: //Leave a whisper... Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
You walk outside, buttoning up your jacket as the cold winter air strikes your skin. Your breath freezes as cold steam escapes your lips. The world is white, the snow and sky seem to blend together. That's when you notice the stillness. The silence that captures your attention, yet leaves you unnerved.
It's too quiet outside, no echo to your footsteps. The sound of your breathing is drowned in the quiet.
That's how I feel when I handle Ghosts. Their white, silky feel almost has a mind of its own. I perform with them and I have undivided attention. They really are a work of art, and almost everyone who has seen them has had to take a moment to appreciate them.
You'll have to almost whisper when working with these cards, they create such an intense atmosphere that simply grabs attention and shackles it in chains of brilliance.
The quality is excellent. The look and theme is great. If these cards were people, you would see them in GQ magazine. They would be models.
I'm a working magician and I highly recommend the Bicycle Ghost Deck.

Customer Review: Good, but has flaws Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
The Ghost deck is a very unique deck. It's beutifully designed- the tiny red pips look great in my opinion. They handle well, as expected. Ellusionist's UV500 finish is a bit too smooth, but after a little work on them, they feel fine. The stock is high quality. The stock has a soft feel- the cards can bend when pressure fanned or sprung. Even so, the cards don't crimp or retain bends to a negative extent. I have a deck (powdered) that lasted almost a year now. The cards still feel new (unfortunately, they don't look it). Unlike many decks, the Ghost deck doesn't expand when getting old. The previously mentioned deck is the same thickness as when it was first used.
So why only four stars? Well, the Ghost has a significant problem. I've opened three decks so far, and they all had an obvious flaw. The edges were cut very poorly. There were small pieces of card sticking out of the sides of several of the cards. In one deck, a couple cards were actually connected by a piece of stock. After some use, the sides smooth out, so it's not a major issue.
Because of the stock issue, I'd give this 4.5/5 stars.
Customer Review: Good product, bad finish Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
The product page says Air-flow finish, but I got one that is the aircushion finish, the deck is still awesome but it wears out a faster.
