The Conjuring Archive is a free research database for locating tricks, methods, plots, and references across thousands of magic publications. A search for a technique such as the Faro shuffle can point readers to relevant books, magazines, authors, and page entries.

No. It primarily indexes the contents of books and periodicals rather than distributing complete copyrighted texts, so researchers still need access to the original publication.

Behr is particularly associated with technically demanding card magic and memorized-deck work. His published material includes the Handcrafted Card Magic series, while his performances emphasize sleight of hand rather than large stage illusions.

Yes, the database is publicly searchable without a paid subscription. Denis Behr has operated the project online since 2004 and accepts donations to support it.
