We
greeted mentalist Brent Webb’s claims of being able to get inside

A
Northeast Ohio native who graduated from Ravenna High School
and spent a semester at Kent State, Brent Webb is now a successful "mentalist." For
a time, he lived in Las Vegas, where he held down a regular gig
at the Desert Inn. While he moved back to Northeast Ohio a couple
of years ago, he continues to tour the world reading minds. He
recently spoke in a phone interview about his upcoming show here,
which will include a death-defying game of Russian roulette.

fascination with magic, a growing
knack for showmanship and big
plans for the future.

of your beliefs about magic, telekinesis,
paranormal energy and the like,

Webb is good.

I met Brent Webb, a self-described mentalist with roots in the
area, he sent me a cryptic e-mail: that "just for fun," he
would send me a letter, and I was not to open it, but bring it
with me when we met.
Some
drivers just make you scratch your head. "What, are they driving
with their eyes closed," you might shout to yourself. Brent
Webb is the embodiment of that driver.

headlines typically aren't predictable. But mentalist Brent Webb
thinks he can tell what's going to be news in a few weeks.

"Don't
get in a car with a stranger" is on every mother's list of standard
admonishments. Regardless, I got in the car with Brent Webb. Stranger
still, I got in knowing he was going to drive blindfolded. Crazy?
Well, maybe. At least I can say he wasn't a complete stranger.
The
Mentalist returned to his hometown of Ravenna Wednesday, donning
his famous steel blindfold and black hood before driving Mayor
Kevin Poland and a television news crew through city park.
