Neil Tobin (born July 7, 1966) is a performer of magical and psychic entertainment, and a writer on related subjects. Since his performance material often involves themes of spirit contact—in addition to demonstrations of telepathy, precognition, magic, and even divination—he often performs as "Neil Tobin, Necromancer." Tobin was born in Chicago, Illinois. ==Live Performance== From November through December of 2015, Tobin is performing in the world premiere of his original play, Palace of the Occult, based on the life of Erik Jan Hanussen. Its first performance was on a Friday the 13th at Chicago's Prop Thtr, and a portion of proceeds will benefit the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center.〔(Playwright Enters The Mind of German Psychic in 1933 Berlin ) from the Chicago Tribune, November 13, 2015〕 He periodically appears as narrator with live orchestra, performing his original narration for Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf accompanied by magical effects, entitled ''Peter and the Werewolf''.〔("Peter and the Werewolf" Kicks Off Orchestra Miami's Family Concerts ) from the Miami Herald, October 24, 2015〕 Starting on Friday the 13th of February 2004, Tobin began performing Supernatural Chicago at the Excalibur nightclub in Chicago. He wrote, produced, directed, and was the sole performer of the show.〔(Haunting Tales Fill Late-Night Haunt ) from the Chicago Tribune, October 27, 2005〕 The show, which was "popular with out-of-towners looking for a Chicago experience" and with "fans of theatrical magic," closed February 28, 2014 after a 10-year run.〔(Spirited "Supernatural" Reaches End of the Line ) from the Chicago Tribune, February 27, 2014〕 Tobin served as Medium of the Houdini Seance at Excalibur nightclub annually from October 2001 to October 2014.
