Biography
McGill became interested in magic as a child (and was later considered legendary in magic circles), but first studied hypnosis in 1927 while still a teenager. He wrote the seminal Encyclopedia of Genuine Stage Hypnotism (the acknowledged bible of stage hypnotism) in 1947, and continued to teach courses and lecture right up until a few days before his death.
He launched his original Spook Show under title 'The Great London Hypnotic Seance,' touring throughout American West and Midwest and Canada, beginning 1942.
From 1947 to 1954, McGill performed hypnotism and magic under the stage name of Dr. Zomb. His 'Sรฉance of Wonders' show featured horror-themed routines and costumed assistants typical of the midnight 'Spook Shows' which were popular during that era.
In addition to his career as a world-traveling magician and stage hypnotist, McGill was also a skilled hypnotherapist and a student of Eastern mysticism. He wrote between twenty-five and forty books (sources disagree on the total), including such titles as Grieve No More Beloved (about his afterlife contact with his deceased wife), Hypnotism and Mysticism in India, and his autobiography, The Amazing Life of Ormond McGill (2005).
Eventually, he became known as 'The Dean of American Hypnotism' and taught many courses and lectures about Hypnotism right up until his death.[1]

Early life and career[edit]
Born in Palo Alto, California, McGill became interested in magic as a child (and was later considered legendary in magic circles),[3] but first studied hypnosis in 1927 while still a teenager. He wrote the seminal Encyclopedia of Genuine Stage Hypnotism[4] (the acknowledged bible[5] of stage hypnotism) in 1947, and continued to teach courses and lecture right up until a few days before his death. He died in his native Palo Alto. He has explained in his book about position of chicken that present them as motionless and appear as hypnotized. McGill explained that the reason for a chicken's hypnotism was due to the tonic indolence that the chicken adopts to save itself from predators by bluffing them as being dead.[6]
From 1947 to 1954, McGill performed hypnotism and magic under the stage name of Dr. Zomb. His 'Sรฉance of Wonders' show featured horror-themed routines and costumed assistants typical of the midnight 'spook shows' which were popular during that era. He has performed in several stage shows all over the globe in the 20th century. Ormond McGill also trained students for therapeutic applications through hypnotism.
McGill continued to collaborate with other colleagues including Gil Boyne, whom he mentored, and to teach hypnotherapy until his death in 2005 with Randal Churchill at the Hypnotherapy Training Institute.
Other Attributes[edit]
In addition to his career as a world-traveling magician and stage hypnotist, McGill was also a skilled hypnotherapist and a student of Easternmysticism.
