What the fuck is this one about, /x/?
Michael Aquino of US Army psychological operations and founder of the Temple of Set speaks highly of the Magic Castle, describing it as one of a small handful of "reputable institutions devoted to the art" of professional magic in his book MindWar.

true story. An older magician committed suicide there. Very sad, really. I saw this guy perform a few years back and he was really great. Pic related. If you ever have a chance to visit the Magic Castle you should. It's amazing inside, just so much fun.
Another older headline from the most trusted name in news.
National Labor Relations Board case filed in December.
Police were reportedly investigating this as a suicide but the coroner has now ruled it an accidental hanging, according to Reuters. He was found in a closet with a bag over his head. Nothing to see here?

Autoerotic Asphyxiation... not uncommon or unheard of. I'll never understand the high of almost dying while masturbating but... to each their own.

Do any of you believe that some magicians use demons to help them perform their tricks?

Not me. For a stage performance, you want to minimize the chances of things going wrong, not leave your show up to the caprices of entities that might decide to just fuck off and leave you standing there like a doofus.
That's not to say that some magicians don't comport with them for other things, but when it comes to the actual show (and keeping those tickets sold), I'd bet they all go with physics.

I'd bet he was practicing some trick and botched it.

"Lieutenant David Smith said the hanging was self-inflicted, though it was not ruled a suicide. Smith was not at liberty to provide further details. While speaking to Reuters, Vicki Greenleaf, a spokeswoman for the Academy of Magical Arts, seemingly discounted the notion that Easton accidentally hanged himself while practicing an illusion that went awry."
This was first reported as a suicide. Articles were published about Easton's struggles with depression. Then they were making it sound like autoerotic asphyxiation gone wrong, saying he was found in his underwear. Now they are saying he was fully clothed, did not commit suicide, it wasn't a magic trick gone wrong, but he had a bag over his head and died by accidental hanging at this place Magic Castle, but they can't say anything more than that.
