Lot's of fun  4 Star Rating - Very good

By anna h. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 881

I took my nephew there for a few gifts for his birthday,
We almost didn't make it past the first ten feet of the store because he was enthralled by the magician at the door.
We got him alot of neat magic stuff and he was the happiest kid on the block.

A Great Magic Shop!  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Alice E. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 10,820

Hocus Pocus is a fun small magic shop. At the front of the store, there is a table where a magician is constantly performing numerous tricks, all of the magicians there have been talented and have suckered me into buying many of their kits for our daughters. Their selection of magic tricks is very expansive and the tricks range from small to large, the price also reflects this. Employees are very honest, they will tell you if a certain kit is just blowing smoke or if it is worth a purchese. In the back (esp. during halloween), costumes are everywhere! There is such a selection, but since the store is small, it's ALL crammed together, so, finding a costume is hard, esp. finding room to try it on and seeing what you look like in a mirror, this can be very frustrating. But still, it's a great store filled with all kinds of neat costumes and magic tricks, still, it would be better they moved to a bigger store.

Magic  5 Star Rating - World class

By Michele B. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 266

This is a small magic shop. They offer everything you can think of for the budding magician. They offer all kinds of books and equipment that you might need. This store is really quite fun. This is a great place for both kids and adults alike. They also sell costumes here at Halloween at great prices. They do get quite busy at times, but its well worth the visit. They are opened Monday through Sunday and accept all major credit cards.
