I've been working on an effect for the last few months, and designed a deck of cards to go with it. I was hoping to get a review of the design of the deck. I have thick skin, so be honest.
Review of my deck

It's kinda creepy but I really like it.
My question is that won't a strange deck put spectators on edge?

The effect itself actually requires the strangeness and creepiness right from the beginning because the entire effect revolves around the actual Reaper Joker performing the magic in a reveal and then a final kicker. Of course the deck can be handed out afterwards and found to be a regular deck.
I love it! The creepier the better. I'd buy it for sure. Awesome job!!
Many of the court cards have changed since this mockup/photo was made. In some ways similar, but changed more so to fit with the effect better. The effect itself has stayed the same as well as the number cards. The court cards have changed a few times to get closer to relevancy for the effect though.
I likely will sell them once I have a product completely together.
I invented a different deck/trick about 15-20 years ago and the process was lengthy just because I'm a perfectionist. I ended up including it and how to make one, in my up coming book however.
So once The Reaper effect is don't to where I like it, then I'll likely write the instructions out and include it with the deck. The other side of it is that I want to make sure the deck I sell is top quality for buyers
