The Trance Killer Suggestion & Hypnosis Thread

Back in 2014, a three-part series of articles was posted about different models for ubderstanding hypnosis, followed by the authors' proposed model: the Automatic Imagination Model. To make a long story short, they found that you could make people way more responsive to hypnosis than usual by telling the subject to imagine something, then to imagine that they were unaware they were imagining it. This was interesting enough on its own, and had a lot of implications the authors touched on in the articles which may be worth exploring in their own right, but I'd like to draw your attention to something they discovered in relation to this. It's a little something they called the Trance Killer suggestion.

>The Trance Killer suggestion is the reversal of the Automatic Imagination process. It is, “It’s just your imagination; you can stop imagining that any time you like, can’t you?” This single line ‘suggestion’ provides the subject with the awareness that they are actually imagining the effects that they are experiencing and that they also have control over this process and can simply stop it. This line has never failed to end any AI session instantly; hands become unstuck, information that was amnesic returns, and dancing fairies vanish.
>We have also used the Trance Killer suggestion on hypnotic sessions set up with traditional approaches (induction and suggestions). Again, it has yet to fail, ending any supposed trance or state the subject was in and cancelling all suggestions. We’re not convinced that it is necessarily a good way to end a traditional “Sleep” hypnotic session, particularly if it involved long periods of time “in trance”.
>We are concerned that there could be physiological changes that result from imagining that you are asleep for 45 minutes that the suggestion to “Wake Up!” helps to reverse. While the trance killer will end the suggestions and session, the subject might benefit from the positive, energetic suggestions that a traditional wake-up process provides.
>In terms of versatility, the trance killer can be delivered by someone other than the hypnotist, ending any ideas that an exclusive hypnotic relationship exists between the hypnotist and subject. So far, we only know of hypnotists delivering this line; when we deliver it, we give it with all the directness and authority we can muster. I have, however, sung this line, across a busy and noisy hotel bar in the trendy East End, as I was walking away from the subject, who was in the middle of a session with Marcus – it still worked.

Now why is anon making a /mlpol/ thread about this weird hypnosis suggestion-cancelling trick from a deactivated hypnosis blog? It's pretty simple. See,
There is a certain group of people which have very fragile, illusory self-images. They are very fond of re-enforcing their self-image through hypnosis. If you timed this right and, say, pulled the rug out from under their programming while they were in the middle of affirming their identity around you (or better yet, watching hypno videos someplace)? It might cause a strong reaction. The suggestion could potentially have other uses, but this is the first which comes to mind.

You're welcome.

Very interesting thread, Anon. As a tulpamancer I find the relationship between one's imagination and hypnotic states mildly fascinating, although I never pursued that path of study myself. The first thought I had was to record the deactivation phrase and time it so that it would play after a particularly long hypnotic foray, especially one that required intense concentration. I could also see it being useful for a trip sitter of sorts when others enter trance-like states and require lucidity after a certain period of time had elapsed.

Have you ever attempted to use this phrase on someone you thought was hypnotised? I think it would be amusing if such techniques were used on sleeper agents or coded assets, provided they are just as susceptible.

Shouldn't be surprised that at least a couple are kicking around here.

Other than myself, no. I only remembered this technique yesterday.

If they're programmed in a way affected by this, potentially yes. It's probably best to start with people you are certain or near-certain were hypnotized, and then to branch out from there.
